On the road again !!!!!:)

AH-YES PB Blaster the miracle worker, will put some on board, and pliars for the pins. Thanks bob.

Getting ready for Monday Pick up of M101A2 @ Fort Drum. How difficult is it to revove the racks and bows, trying to figure out what I need to bring, my m101a2 that I've been using is without the racks and bows. thanks. Once again anything I can look at or take pics of while I'm up there let me...

The brake lines should have a coil in them that allows the flex. I believe the same with the wires. With mine I fished my new 4-pin connecter through the A Frame and attached scotch locks to the 4-wires that matched up using the wire diagram in the TM. I believe these trailers are ready to dump...

I don't think so, can barely handle 1 M101, and I think my wife wants to keep it that way. Look forward to the trip. THANKS> Bob

Wasn't as bad as I thought, just took awhile, like you all said it would. Going to Fort Drum Monday 4/26/10 to PU M101A2, would anyone like pics or can I check on anything for you. As always thanks for you help and guidance. Kevin @ GL seems like a good guy. Bob.:jumpin:

Thanks for the input, That is what is GREAT about SS. Like the idea about adding extra springs and also checked out Saturn Surplus, if they are newer or not used, that will be a good place to start, I go to Carlise alot, so not hard to do a drive by. :jumpin:

Thanks for the suggestions, I still have to figure out what axle and spring layout would be close to the M101A2, Blazer, 2500 Chev PU, Dodge Ram????? so Hellwig can send something that will fit.

No I think in additon to the springs, I beleive the rest of the axle and shocks can handle it, think the springs are undersized for the whole trailer. Also the Hellwigs are a lot less expensive as well.

What do you guys think. Springs on my my A2 seem a bit weak, compared to everything else on the trailer. I put Hellwig over load springs on my B2500 Van conversion 2-years ago and they are the best. Do you see any reason why they won't work on the A2. Hellwig Products | load pro series | Sway...

You can get the hitch pins @ Tractor supply. Good advice on reeming out the holes first. Also we installed bump stops on the "A" frame just behind the brackets, sometimes the bed will come down quic especially if the bed is not empty and brackets will not allign. Check out the link for tractor...

With the price of a M101A2, I was glad that is what I purchase. When I load it with gravel it pushes my 40hp Masey around like a little Craftsman lawn mower. Also the surge brakes is what has saved the whole deal. With my 2500 Dodge B- Van conversion, hauling topsoil was nothing. Not so sure I...

Thanks for the offer, have trailer already set up to flip the m101 over on to, system i used last fall when I brought my first one back from Binghamton. Congrats on the covered wago, I backed down on them, have NOS cover in storage.

Took a while, just informed by GL, won MIOIA2 with racks and bows. Will probably need guidance with EUC and how to be patient while waiting. I have used the heck out of my original MIOIA2, hauling bank run gravel to build road by my pond in the woods, these trailers are tough. Thanks for all the...

go ahead and back up I agree w/ the parking brake conclusion. I have used my m101A2 on and off road, loaded to the max(springs flat and slightly turned down) at first had problems backing up, until I adjusted the brakes. I'm amazed at how well the surge brakes work, especially going down 10%...

I'll keep you in mind if I get close to NC, might go down in the spring. Thanks. Bob.

Thaks for the info, will be bidding soon, will post when purchased, then I'm sure I'll have plenty of questions. Bob.

Is there a prefered mfg. on GENSET. Looking to purchase mep002 or 3. Any noticable difference or things to look for when bidding. As always, THANKS for the help. Bob

If you unplug the intervehicle cable at the junction box, you can save it and plug it back in. Using scoth locks at 22-460, 22-461 & 21 (each wire has metal ID plate # just after plug in) and a little electric tape, you are on your way.

I was able to seperate(unplug) the wiring on the A-frame(Hitch) at the junction box, then schothlocked a regular 4-pin trailer connector. Then replaced the top 2-bulbs with 12-volt bulbs. works fine. You should be able to use the following diagram to hook your 4- wires to. WIRING DIAGRAM
