Help Needed w M923

[jstier]

Can anyone tell me what might have been mounted here? This is passangers side rear of the front fender and cab. The holes are driving my nuts.

Thank you

Jeff, probably a fire extinguisher bracket. They like to put them on the fenders sometimes. You can see where the paint isn't faded as well.

Or chemical decon apparatus. Those were a popular fashion accessory on military vehicles.

M939 Antenna Mounting

Those are the mounting holes for an antenna support bracket brace. The antenna base bolts to the front of those holes on the flat part of the fender and there is a separate brace that bolts to it going down the fender.

I just finished mounting mine last week as it took me a while to assemble all the parts needed.

Exactly what Juan said.. A antenna support bracket.

While we're on the subject....What is the correct length antenna?

The correct antenna is according to what radio is being used .
