MBT Bantam front and rear tub panels

Post by mmamajor » Tue Apr 04, 2017 7:32 am

I'm looking to get these for my trailer, but aside from MDJuan don't know if anyone else makes these. Joes Motor Pool does not, and neither does Midwest Military. Army Jeep Parts used to but not anymore. I'd appreciate any feedback from anyone who has replaced these panels with Juan's, as to how they fit and matched up to the sides. Thanks much! Andy

I have one. Looks pretty close, it I haven't got all the Bubba off the trailer where it's going to properly test it.

The rear panel was missing from my WWII Bantam 1/4 ton trailer when I bought it. I had my local welding shop make a panel for me to include the roll type pipe on the top. It does not have the two vertical indents or the hook, but that could be easily remedied by heating or pounding. The tie down hooks are not hard to find. It's not that big a deal to me. 8)
