Chris,

That is a LU2, and that is the same fairlead, but it is also the same fairlead used from the 1960s until the 70's on regular Dodge trucks.

This could be a Army replacement for a M-37, or it could be off of a 61-71 Crew Cab, or a 72 up 4wd pickup.

The possiblities are almost endless.

As for what the Army did I have no idea, but I never head of M-37s with LU-2s until yours, and don't forget, you winch was dated 73, long after the M-37 production ended.

But If I can arrange to be in the area at the end of the auction, and it goes cheap, I will buy it, I need a few more LU-2s. Bought three, need maybe 5 more.

I keep finding trucks with all the winch parts but the winch!

But I need ones that are 57-60 date coded, and this makes my job much harder! I am buying what I can for now, maybe as time goes by I can trade for the right date coded ones.

Eric
