Rear M38 shackle mounts

[Jim]

Are the lift shackle mounts (not the hooks) the same
as the front mounts on the M38?

The very early M38 used the same ring and bracket on all four positions. The later M38's used an entirely different front bracket and ring but used the same as the early M38 rear ones.


This is the rear barcket and ring used on all M38's, M38A1 and M170 from the factory.


Here you see the same bracket and ring as it was installed on the very early M38's up front.
