    M101 Recovery in Anniston, AL. The worst trip ever.

    Bear with me, folks while I share with you the worst trip in the history of worst trips. My best friend and I won a pair of M101 trailers in Anniston, AL. We were hoping the EUC would clear quickly as his boss was going on vacation July 4th week so we would have been in trouble if it cleared...

    Mind if my boy has a look at your truck?

    The smile on his face says it all. Very well done! [thumbzup]

    So ... what exactly did I win?

    We just got back. The EUC cleared Wednesday afternoon so we decided to just hit the road. Stopped at the CMP and he bought a Service Grade Winchester. I got my dad a Service Grade H&R with a new CMP stock. 1 and 1 on the ME/TE. My buddies was a 0 and 2. Oh, and it's an M116A3 with an M101 box...

    So ... what exactly did I win?

    I'm still waiting for the EUC to clear. I actually won another trailer in the same lot, it's for my best friend. Once the EUC clears we're driving his truck and a flat-bed trailer to pick them up. Plus we're going to hit up the CMP South Store so he can get an M1. I would, too but I already have...

    So ... what exactly did I win?

    Hmm, excellent. I guess it's actually an M116 with a 101 bed on it. The data plate that's faded starts with a "C" which is why I think that. According to the TM the M116A3s are 1 ton. Is that correct?

    So ... what exactly did I win?

    New pictures on page 2! Perhaps the trailer gurus can help me out? It's listed as an M101A1 but the delivery date is 6/93. And it has surge brakes which I understand to only be on the A2 and A3 trailers. I noticed the wheels stick out from the fender wells, does that mean I have the stronger A3...

    Towing A M105 Trailer?

    I tried the loosen the nut trick and use it for pressure, got nowhere! I might have to try your chisel idea. [thumbzup]

    Towing A M105 Trailer?

    My father's '04 F-150 4x4 pulls his M105A2 just fine, it doesn't even squat. We have the 12" pintle riser in his receiver but the trailer still isn't level. I have tried and tried to break the lunette ring free to no avail. A torch and an 8 lb sledge don't even phase it. I've even backed off the...
