yes get the 8" or 8.5" wide wheels
sometimes summitracing.com has good prices on truck wheels.
I've had tire shops lie about wheels being bent before.
death wobble is a result of worn front end componants.
If it's local you don't need photos, give him a call and go buy it.
A nice cucv dually m1028A3 I think it is, is usually on the north side of $5k here in the 48
Kinda, but for $500 each I would sell them, They are NOS as in new Old stock, they have been hanging in a shed forever, never used.
It is the Lil Red Truck and Warlock restorers that drive up the price of some M880 parts.
A1 no brakes, takes 5 lug military wheels
A2 surge brakes, civi 8 lug wheels (8 on 6 1/2 bc)
A3 surge brakes, crank up landing leg, 8 lug humvee wheels (wider axle w/more ground clearance) & wider fender flares.
the inside of my A1 box (on a A2 frame) is 95 3/4" with tailgate up

Reminds me of the old guy that used to live down the road.
He'd get a new (toy/whatever) then the little woman would bitch, so out front the older toy/whatever would go with a for sale sign and a super high price. a month or so later & it would go back in the garage.

Sounds like Russel's Millitary Vehicles has some paperwork to fix.
Not an uncommon situation. The truck could have came from the Gov't that way. Personally I'd get them to issue a title with the frame vin and buy a replacement data tag for it.
I agree with skinny for snow, so you can cut down to hard ground.
skinny tire for a muddy road? maybe, but for mud off road????? sorry I'd rather not have it sink in search of hard ground, wider is better.
Clark Truck maybe? I think the M809 series speedo adapter will work.

Grounds
99.5% of light issues are ground related the other .5% is either the 3 lever or the relay next to the fuse block.
The 3 lever needs to be set to service druve for the factory light switch to get power.
I see you are using deuce front springs and hangars, good start!
There is no way I would put a trailer frame under the truck frame and certainly wouldn't weld it on.
