    How to mount tarp on M101

    I assumed people would roll the tarp up or take it off when traveling at freeways speeds.

    M101A3 DTY Steel Stakes uprights.

    The stake hole is 2"x1.5" and probably is a channel while in the pocket. Can't say for sure as I have never seen a set.

    M101A3 DTY Steel Stakes uprights.

    I have been trying to figure out why I don't see any for sale. I guess people dot think they are worth the hassle of selling.

    M101A3 DTY Steel Stakes uprights.

    Looking for something I can weld to. Might have to get a band saw and cut down some 2x2 tubing.

    I copied Harley except I used a longer channel. Used the bottom hole for the original safety chains and spacers :)

    That is a fast welder. Post some pics if you get a chance. Also curious about the price of the welding work, if you are willing to share.

    M101 A3 Build Utility, Camping, etc.

    I swapped the mil lights for new LEDs. Used the existing mounts and with 30" tires they are plenty visible and tucked out of the way.

    These are not the normal type of tilt bed. Check YouTube for some videos of them in operation.

    It will still have the ability to tilt but you need to lock the hand brakes to get it to dump. I guess you could just chock the wheels. Again, no expert but from what I have read here, these trailers are not really meant for repeated dumping of heavy loads.

    I am not sure, but unless you can get a hub/brake system on your new axle that is set up for hand brakes your dumping feature may be lost.

    M101A3 DTY Steel Stakes uprights.

    Anyone know of a source for stakes that fit in the pockets of an M101A3? Right now, the best option I am looking at is buying some 2x2 square tubing and removing 1/2" to give a channel that fits. I want to build a lumber type rack that slips inside the pockets, ideally they would be ~3'...

    I am curious to see the price point for them. I am suprised a truck topper company doesn't make one already.

    First M1101

    Nice trailer. I have been watching SA for trailers and glad to know some M1101s are on deck. Thank for the tarp link harley, I think I will order one similar to yours (unless you want to sell me yours...:)) Are you saying the spindles on the M1101 can simply be swapped out? Does that mean...
