Frank,
C039 is the 155mm howitzer M1, that was the original use. C084 is the 76mm anti tank gun M48 and D055 is the 90mm gun T133. The cable should be 24' long.

The spring is wartime and is to take up the slack in the electric cable at the tractor end.

I understand that the spacer on the rear of the lamp fits the M-8 and M-20.

You are correct on spacer, I restored one for a local museum.
