Probably most efficient to pull one and twos of surviving M901s out of the infantry battalions and pool them in a provisional AT company or battalion. 901s were rough dogs at the best of time and could never keep up with M1s, Brads or 113A3s. All pooled in a single holding unit would allow the division commander to plus up points of max vulnerability without slowing down the show otherwise.
(Assuming the division has enough TOWs to go round -- ripping the hammerhead and missile racks out to just run them as APCs might really appeal on a lot of levels.)
Some truck mounted launchers are possible but not anywhere in the MTOE. Could be a last ditch add on -- of course given the scarcity of ammo circa 2000 (and likelihood a lot of it is bad) line battalions might put all their surviving Javelins into the hands of Echo Companies with humvees for the same reasons why 901s might be pulled out of the battalions.
