What type of unit are you in now? The Army started phasing out the split rims some years back (don't know the exact year). You can still see some M149A2's with split rims, those are getting replaced with the newer assembly. Saw them on the M870 series trailers. M172 Lowboys probably still have them, mine at Bragg still had them. All the trucks I had changed them out. Sadly, the Army doesn't even want you to change assemblies anymore.

Mike does have his hands full with these rims....
