Bryan,

My M882 4x4 had standard wires and plugs with it when I purchased it
from a mil-salvage dealer near me. I don't know for sure that they were on
it when he bought it, as he would normally take an entire lot of these
trucks and build as many complete units as he could with them. Mine did
have the 24 volt generator, dual battery trays, and the network of cable and
bus bar on passenger side when I got it though. Since I use this truck to
pull a tri-axle trailer and backhoe, I removed the generator in order to
convert to power steering, but left everything else on it.
