Anyone know where I could find footman loops for the bed of this trailer? I have only one which measures 2 and 7/8 inches from center of hole to hole. I guess i could just re-bore a new hole but would like to keep what was originally there.Found other sizes.

Just like the military supply system the civvy suppliers allow various manufacturers to supply parts under one ORD# that do not necessarily match perfectly the spec used. Your only real choice here is to screen suppliers footman loop supplies by contacting then and requesting precise dimensions of their products.

the 416b1 takes two longer footman loops for the gas cans...if that is what your looking for do google search fo M151 footman loops...
