Help needed chicken shield and riser

Any help would be surely appreciated. The problem: I need a pintle riser that has four bolts for the chicken shield and is wide enough at top to mate with the mk64 cradle for the m-2.

what kind of shield do you have ?
is it flat or does it have a bend in it.
Not sure what you mean by wide enough to mate with the MK-64 cradle?
The Mk-64 cradle uses a small pintle.
Your best bet is to try 86humv here on the boards.
Do you already have the M2 adapter for the MK-64 because you will need that also if you don't have it already

Yes, it does have the bend in it (Shield). I need the small pintle for my systems bu I don’t know of a 50 cradle that has the small pintle male end.

I’m really new to this and don’t know what 86hmv is

The MK-64 cradle has a small pintle on it already.
It fits in the UPA (Universal Pintle Adapter)
You are looking for a UPA for a shield (flat rectangular plate on the face) that also has a yoke on the back of it ( adjustable Y shaped piece with a cross bar for the T&E Mechanism )

86 HUMV is a member here on the board who might have what you need

A picture of the parts you have would help.
You sure you have a MK -64 cradle ? and not a MK-23 cradle?

The only person who is going to have the pieces your missing off the UPA is 86 humv.
You may have to buy a complete UPA from him if he has one. Sadly it is a common method of de-milling them to separate the back half of the UPA.
The Mk-23 cradle will work on your HMMWV but just not with a shield.
They make 2 different cradles that will work with that style shield and UPA.
A Mk-64 and a Mk-93
The MK-64 requires an adapter to adapt it to the M2
The Mk-93 doesn't
The Mk-93 is buffered as well .

I'm surprised he hasn't found you yet.
on the top of the page you will see the word MEMBERS
click that scroll down a ways and it will say find member.
Type in 86humv and then I believe it will say something like start a conversation.
