    M1061a1

    Thanks Carnac, but I'm confused. I will tow the trailer behind my deuce, so tie-down points aren't a factor, right?

    M1061a1

    I just won an auction for an M1061A1 5-ton flat bed trailer. I will tow it home 200 miles with my M35A3. What tips can you offer? That trailer doesn't require the hand brake on the steering column, does it? Being a newbie deuce owner, what test(s) can I perform on my deuce to determine the...

    CTIC Tire Inflation

    I'm a newbie with an M35A3. The CTIC display is funtional so I optimistically believe the system to work but haven't messed with it. Is there a test sequence I can run it through? Can someone explain its operation or is there a manual? Also, one tire loses pressure over time. Can the CTIS...

    M1061a1 Deck Dimensoins

    What are the dimensions of the rectangular deck on the M1061A1? Are 8'W x 18.5' long correct? Does anyone have pics to share of these trailors with boxes built on top, and maybe towed by a deuce? I plan to build a "trade show booth" on top of one of these trailers with 110VAC plug-in HVAC and...

    True weight of M35A3?

    Thank you very much! I bought it a month ago in DC and drove it 1400 miles back to Dallas hitting 2 bases and collecting 125 signatures of troops and veterans. Next planned stops are Cannon AFB, Goodfellow AFB and bases in san Antonio. Here's a small plaque I wrote and made for the driver's...

    I would really like to see photo(s). I'm trying to decide between a M989A1 and a M1061A1 / XM1061E1. Thanks!

    Riverside LED Lights

    Not good for the apocalypse, but otherwise OK I guess. I'd hate to loose that function. May roll the dice though. Thanks!

    Riverside LED Lights

    I'm curious about your blackout function comment because their lights come with that function.

    Riverside LED Lights

    They are on ebay...$100 for fronts and $100 for rears. The seller has a good rating. I haven't bought them yet.

    M35A3 Taillight Malfunction

    Thanks for the info on filament redundancy. It's interesting that you say that the large bulb is for brakes because now the large bulbs are lit as running lights and blink as blinkers. If they are also brake lights, then I still have small bulbs that do nothing. It is my opinion that the...

    M35A3 Taillight Malfunction

    Thank you very much for your help! I don't know what an airpack is or what that looks like, but I may have seen the switch while creeping underneath. I'll try the jump early next week. Thanks again!

    M35A3 Taillight Malfunction

    How do I do that? Is there a diagram or something available? I haven't looked closely at the back and the wires yet.

    M35A3 Taillight Malfunction

    Thanks Ray. Do you think the smaller 1251 bulbs are brake bulbs? Frank

    M35A3 Taillight Malfunction

    Hi. I just bought a nice M35A3 with taillight malfunction. With lights on and with lenses removed from both lights, each large, bottom bulb (1683) is burning bright with both filaments lit. Directional signals blink both filaments on the same 1683 bulbs, on-and-off. Depressing brake pedal...
