Bradley Rear Light
Use NSN 5342-01-451-5902 to order a new
neoprene resilient mount for your M2/M3-
series Bradley’s rear light. It replaces the
mount shown as Item 96 in Fig 122 of TM 9-
2350-252-24P-1 and Item 104 in Fig 139 of TM
9-2350-284-24P-1. The old mount, NSN 5340-
00-007-0067, was made of solid rubber that
broke down and failed too quickly.
Wipers for M44A2, M809
Want an electric windshield wiper for your
older 2 1/2-ton and 5-ton trucks? Accessory
kit, NSN 6105-01-461-7073, is available as an
OK replacement for air-actuated units on
M44A2-series 2 1/2-ton trucks and M809-
series 5-ton trucks. TACOM’s EIR Digest, TB
43-0001-62-5 (Apr 00), approves this switch so
that drivers determine how fast the wipers
work, not the engine.
Report M40/M42 Mask MWO
NBC NCOs, if your M40/M42-series masks

Chemical Command (SBCCOM)

Para 3-8 in DA Pam 738-750 for

nator or to SBCCOM at:

M88A1/A2, M992A2 Fitting
Use NSN 4730-01-444-0303 to
get the pipe fitting for the aux-
iliary power unit hydraulic
pump on your M88A1/A2
recovery vehicle and M992A2
ammo carrier. NSN 4730-01-
026-0922, which is shown as
Item 9 in Fig 267 of TM 9-
2350-256-24P-1, Item 7 in Fig 302 of
TM 9-2350-292-24P, and Item 7 in Fig 285 of
TM 9-2350-293-24P is too big. Make a note
until the TMs are updated.
M939/A1 Wheel Studs
Use NSN 5305-01-132-8274 to get the correct
wheel stud for the right-side front wheel on
M939/A1-series trucks. Use NSN 5305-01-132-
8273 to get the correct wheel stud for the
left-side front wheel. The numbers listed for
Item 17 in Fig 293 of TM 9-2320-272-24P-1 are
wrong. Make a note ‘til your TM is updated.
HET/PLS Fuel Filter
NSN 2910-01-478-5210 gets the secondary
fuel filter for the M1070 HET and
M1074/M1075 PLS. This new filter replaces
the one shown as Item 2 in Fig 39 of the HET’s
TM 9-2320-360-24P (May 98) and as Item 5 in
Fig 44 of the PLS’s TM 9-2320-364-24P (Aug
99). The new filter does a better job of catch-
ing contaminants.
AMSS Correction
The four major monthly AMSS reporting
problems are identified in the AMSS article
on Pages 55-57 of PS 581. But
question three
should be:
Is End Item, Weapon System and
Sub-system Component Info correct?
