Peterson Mfg. has a nice copy of the FMVSS for lights: http://www.pmlights.com/requirements.cfm?type=8&chart=2 As I read this, for an M101 you would need at a minimum two stop/tail/turn lights, one license lamp, amber and red side markers, and reflex reflectors at all locations. I don't...

Anyone know if there is an automotive equivalent to the M101 series leaf springs? I know that the 1/4 tons used Jeep hardware, just curious if the bigger brother was similar.

Thanks Mike I was speculating that I could invert/reverse the axle to accomplish that without cutting or welding. Obviously it would require shorter shocks, no big deal. Might even remove a leaf or two from the spring packs.
