Help on a M38A1C

I just picked up a M38A1 to use here on the place as a "push,pull" vehicle for moving the other military vehicles around with. Did not want to put to much work into it because some one had cut a tailgate into it.
Now, I have the chance to pick up a M106 with the ground/jeep mount. I am thinking of making the M38A1 into a C model.
So here is my quiston: How was the M106 mount attached to the jeep? and could some one show me some photos or what TM I need to get.
Thanks.

Frank:
I will have to plunder through my stuff, but I may have a thing or two that can help.
Of course, since we moved last August: 1) a great deal of stuff is still in boxes and 2) some may have 'disappeared', like my jungle/ruck boots

(NOT happy about that).

Hello Frank,
There is an Army field installation kit and tech data to install. The kits still show up from time to time but usually in California. I believe the last time a year ago I saw a kit going for $2500.
Ken Perkins is on this web site a lot and he is camped out there. I got a copy of the MWO from him last year. And he may know if any kits are coming available that way.
I have some A1C photos loaded here:

I haven't finished loading the MWO yet.
This is the MWO

I just e-mailed Brent. That is where I got the M106 (I give him two thumbs up!!) I asked if he had any of the kits, but I am thinking his reply is going to be "Yes, and they are attached to the M38A1C jeeps I am selling".
Thanks, I will keep every posted.
