Looking for the following!:
-Passenger side dash grab bar
-Passenger seat or any seat that could work as a passenger seat
-Rear jump seats
-Spare tire support bar
-Rear bumperetts
I know M170 stuff is hard to come by and this is not for restoration purposes but more for a daily driver.....so I'm flexible on anything that could work. Thanks!

The Passenger side dash grab bar and rear bumperetts are standard M38A1 stuff.
The rear "jump seat" cushionīs you can get at Wee Bee Webbing amongst others.
For the assistant drivers seat, i have seen once, you can take a normal M38A1 seat frame to make fit.
The only hard to find item is the spare tire support bar and the original passenger seat.
Simply make the spare tire support bar by yourself.

The m170 grab bar is very different from the m38a1. It is not really a grab bar but part of the litter carrying system. |

I know that the grab handle is different between M38A1 and M170.
My understanding is, that he will not apply the litter stuff in the vehicle and is looking for an ordinary grab bar.

I have M38īs, M38A1īs and a M170 too.
Sorry folks.
Sincerely

It was this statement you made that clearly lead us to believe you believed they used the same grab bar.

The original M170 passenger side grab bar is not standard M38A1 stuff so hence the photos to make that clear.
The photos were not meant to step on your toes. They were meant to make it perfectly clear they are not the same. _________________ Wes K
