The roll cages were not installed until a few years after the M151A2s were in service. As a result, they may well have the holes from the corner mount or from the mount over the spare tire carrier. Of the 30 M151A2s I bought, a few had the over the tire mount, but only 1 or 2 had the corner mount, and it may well have been left over from the pre-rollcage days. The problem with an AMU or an ATU on the corner mount was that the antenna would get broken against the rollcage if the antenna was bent or whipped forward. If you are going with the rollcage, then I would suggest you don't bother with the corner mount.
