I have a copy of the first M-416 manual but it is packed up for the
move to PA. later this month. A ORD listing I have here lists this manual,
TM 9-2300-223-20 for the trailer along with the 2330-251-14-P.
I think it may be incorrect to refer to the M-416 as the MUTT
trailer. The M-416 has a two position casting for the lunette eye. One
position is for the M-151 and the other is for the M-422. Perhaps it might
be referred to as the "MUTT/MITE" trailer as it was designed for both.
