Fort Powells M400A2

[AN/ARC186]

Some folks just aren't happy with what's available out there, Ed's one of them.
when he couldn't find what he was looking for, he just made it.
this is what happens when you leave a Marine alone with 2- M200 trailers.
got to love this sort of imagination.

With that axle spacing it's gonna be a mother to turn with any load on it. I guess he can make the tongue longer

Still, it looks like a fun project

Thanks Dan.

Thats what i need to put my M109 Box on. Like Stalwart said, its a real short trailer to have a spread axle! It is neat to look at none the less!

Looks awesome. I would also see if you can get the axles put closer together.

 

[res0wc18]

nice, im considering doing something similar but have close spacing on the axles...

Does anyone have any images info/ on m400a2's?

 

[AN/ARC186]

M400A2 is a designation we made up, M200 + M200 = M400

A buddy has one just like this rusting away. I have been thinking of taking a set of M105 spring hangers to move the front axle back a bit. I want to mount a dropside bed and a knuckleboom on it.

Last Sunday, April 22nd, 2012 went to pick-up the U-Haul box for the trailer.
After several hours of cutting & pulling the box was drug up onto the 48’ trailer to be moved.
Round trip from Stephanie’s was 92 miles.

This would not have been possible without the help of Dan and Stephanie.
Thank you both again for the help!

Well she came home today.
I want to thank Stephanie, Dan, Dwayne and my son Chad for making this trailer.
It still needs some lights and a coat of paint but that will all come in time.
Towed great!
