Parts

Just thought I'd share my rescources for parts for the M170

Upper stretcher racks - good luck, not to be found anywhere. I found one and had to give up my first born.

Reel light- they are at Midwestmil and some are listed at the G503.com under the m38a1. Expensive.

NOS canvas top and sides - Mullinsjeepparts.com has/had some

Emergency brake cable- Mullinsjeepparts.com has some

Long exhaust pipe NOS- Mullins has them, very nice galvanized original not painted like I've seen on ebay.

Sway bar bushings- I measured mine and bought upgraded version from energy suspensions. The part numbers are as follows:
(1 set) 9.8106G End Link Bushings
(2 Pair) 9.5106G Frame Bushings
(2 Pair) 9.8107G Shock Eye Bushings
These will do both bars

Fuel tank sender (it is unique to the M170)- Midwest has them and it was a pleasant surprize!

Gas tank- I've only seen one come up for sale in two years of searching. I ended up restoring mine at Moyers Gas Tank Repair for a clone of my first born. Lifetime warrantee. FYI I paid more for my gas tank restoration than I paid for the whole Jeep!

Top Bows- I've heard that Ron Fitzpatric will make a set

Passenger door frame- there is one on ebay now with a buy it now option. It is the only one I have ever seen come up.

Medic seat bottom- never seen one come up for sale

Medic seat- rare only seen a couple in two years

The parts for the M170 are all rare. If you hesitate for a better deal you will end up regretting it. The unique parts are expensive if you can even find them. Trust me I know.

I have a rusty set of the two tool box doors that are in the fenderwells . Not too bad but there are pinholes.
