Tested and prototyped by Ford through most of the fifties, the M151 MUTT ("Military Unit Tactical Truck") went into production in 1959 and became the principal combat Jeep of the Vietnam era. It was produced by Kaiser Jeep, AM General and General Motors, as well as Ford. It had a four wheel independent suspension of unsophisticated design which was responsible for somewhat unstable behavior on bends -- the later A2 version adopted a semi-independent rear suspension to improve the stability. The vehicle was thought dangerous for civilian use on the road, so the Army used surplus M151's for parts, and the stripped vehicles had the frame and rear suspension cut before being offered for sale as scrap metal.
