    M101a3 trailer build

    I've been following along with you, very nice camp trailer. Have you decided on what type of water seal you're going to use for the side doors?

    adding GFCI receptacles to trailer mounted MEP802a.

    No, that's a 30 amp plug.

    adding GFCI receptacles to trailer mounted MEP802a.

    Here's what my friend Robert and I did on my mep003... It has a 50,30 and some 20 amp rec. in the box with jumpers to plug to house or another 4 20 amp box. It's made to roll down the ramp and lock into place when moving. I did that because the wire can get heavy and the box is off the ground or...

    55 gallon drum pickup tube

    Well, I can't say exactly, but far enough that I don't think forcing it will work. I wasn't sure if there was a trick to seating it.

    55 gallon drum pickup tube

    What am I doing wrong...My bung adapters on both my 003's will not fit in my tank's 2" npt hole. The tank is 275 gals. and a 2" pipe will screw down in the hole. Can't get that adapter to push in there and yes I flipped the lock lever. Thanks Guys,

    M103a3 canvas

    Not any good ones, but Gimpy is thinking about reproducing them. I started another thread on this, so check in there for any ideas.

    Tarp for generator trailer

    On the M103 trailer cover there's a ton of buckles and D rings sewn on it to hold all the sides together. Wonder if zippers would be better (cheaper) at all four corners than the buckles.

    Tarp for generator trailer

    Yes Sir, M103A3. That's what I thought, not many around anymore. Mine is rotting thread at the seams and falling apart, it could be sewn in a pinch. Thanks,

    Tarp for generator trailer

    Question for you guys, I have a AN/MJQ-18 trailer, it's a twin MEP-003 trailer and was looking for a new tarp for it. NSN number is 6115-01-206-1271. Does anyone know where to look for one? Mine is falling apart. Thanks for any leads

    What should a MEP-002a / MEP-003a be worth?

    I don't know if this is right place, but I've got two MEP-003s mounted on a military trailer and looking for one of you electrical guys to build me a junction box. One that will plug into my house and have some other plugs, 110 and 220 type like a regular generator. I will trade one of the...

    59 chevy 2 ton cab on my deuce

    That's the only one I found, too. Love that look. Mine would be a flatbed, but not so sure that's a deuce frame, maybe 1 1/2 ton from WWII. I can't find any information on it either. That body is the same as mine, but my 2 ton has wider fenders and grille in order to cover the bigger axle.

    59 chevy 2 ton cab on my deuce

    Well, I used to be 6'1" and now I'm 6', so maybe if I live long enough, I'll fit in it better. :)

    59 chevy 2 ton cab on my deuce

    Rusty, Seems like most big trucks have the 34" wide frame. I was thinking at one time of moving the deuce's running gear over to the chevy's frame, but I just like that big 'ol deuce frame and it has the winch already set up. They use the same wheels, too. I fit in the chevy so much nicer and I...

    59 chevy 2 ton cab on my deuce

    Thanks, won't be until later in the year. I'm finishing up a FJ55 Landcruiser right now, but want to get on the deuce soon. I'm not finding much information about swapping the body out, but I've got years of good material on power steering add ons, better brakes, etc. I can't wait to start doing...

    59 chevy 2 ton cab on my deuce

    Man, how'd you that so fast! Thank you, certainly some good reading. I'm trying to work with what I have and make a little bit more comfortable farm truck. I pull a stock trailer also, so it will have power steering and maybe the modified overdrive trans. gear,kind of a do all truck.

    59 chevy 2 ton cab on my deuce

    Let me first just say how much my search skills suck eggs! I've been looking for several days and can only come up with one guy who talked about putting an old cab on a deuce. I've seen a lot of monster truck type stuff, but nothing down to earth, everyday farm truck. I'm wanting to put my 59...

    My M116A3...

    It's just to raise or lower the jack. Bring your tool kit. Plyers will work. Good Luck
