Charlie Model bed (Bows question)

[Firehound]

So... the M35A2 and M35A2C. The only difference is, the drop bed, right?

I was digging around in the TM, and noticed that the bows are different for the A2C. Great... I have 5 sets of A2 bows. Does anyone know the specific differences? Can you use a tarp and bow set from an A2 on a Charlie model?

The bows and tarps are interchangeable. The difference is regular bows bolt together while the dropside corners have a swing latch and the top bow has a post to hook them together (for quick disassembly and storage).

Also the C has dual circuit brakes and are usually owned by great bass fishermen.

Not all of them are dual circuit, only the later m35a2c trucks.

I guess mine is a later model. 1987. M35A2C
