Alice pack frame types

I have an lc1 frame and 2 lc2 frames. One lc2 frame looks similar to my lc1 with the horizontal beam significantly bent inwards while the one with the shelf attached curves away from the body. I picked the one without the shelf straight out of a warehouse and ran with it with no issues. I recently got this newer one with has 06 stamped on the inside that looks more comfortable with the horizontal beam perfectly flat across. Is this a new design or was the older one used to carry the goliath?

Need help identifying sleeping bag case

It has US stamped at the bottom of it and has two holes for the bag's tie-down straps, but theres no tag or snap buttons. Pretty sure its a M-1945 water repellent case but im not 100% sure because of the missing components, as well as the fact its in khaki color and different fabric weave.

Persistant pain & headache

Update of previous post. On the 7th of August I overloaded myself on a ruck and have pain in my upper back/neck. It hurts/burns in between my shoulder blade area and travels up to my neck where i feel discomfort looking down. I've also had a dull headache since then and it hasn't gone away. What the hell did i do? Is there any recovery?

CFP-90/IIFS Rucksack

I made the backpack wearable after removing the broken track and yolk and stitched the load lifter straps to the shouldwr straps to mount them to the ladder lock buckles, but theres a bit of a sway when i took it for a test. Couldnt get rid of it unless i tightend the shoulder straps all the way which then transfers the weight from my hips to my shoulders. Any ideas on modifications to remedy this?
