Army Surplus of Dodge City used to list them in MV Mag for around
$450....too rich for my blood.
    There is a demand, but how cheap can you make them? The fab instructions
seem to have lots of bends and welds, very time consuming and labor
intensive.

Hi List...

Does anyone have a source of the pre-made center-mount troop seat
mounting kits for the deuce?

TB 9-2320-209-30/4 shows how to fabricate the kits, which I can and
will do if I can't find the kit, but I think I have seen pre-made kits
in the past, and it would be easier just to buy the kit if they are
available.

According to an old post on the MV list, the NSN for the kit is
2450-01-173-0134, but I cannot verify this (it doesn't come up as this
kit in the MILDOCS.COM Extended NSN Search).

If I fabricate a professional kit for myself, would anyone else be
interested in a kit too? I can make several if there is a demand.

Thanks!
