It's true, Sean. Much to my dismay the M1009 CUCV Blazer was produced with
semi-floating Corporate rear axles that are analogous to the civilian
1/2-ton pickup rears. The M1008 et.al. were at least assembled with
full-floaters.
Remember, these were obtained by the government for "command and control,"
not heavy-duty haulin' and brawlin'.
