The previous owner of my 710K Pinz installed a VDO fuel gauge on the dash. The problem I am seeing is that the gauge is indicating empty at half tank. I do not think the sender was changed. So could the problem be is it is a 12VDC gauge?
Any guesses and what should I look for?

Here are some pics of the trailer I bought. I was looking under the trailer and I found an stamped tab wired to the frame and hidden in a nook and cranny with an ID number of GC4011 on it. From the condition of the metal tab it is undoubtedly original, so I now know the Trailer ID number to...

Glassk,
Thanks for the info. This is what mine looks like, notice the brake handle configuration which is curved and operates side to side. I do not have the connector harness or top bows for mine.
Thank You for the INFO!!!! I searched for M116 ID plates and found a vendor that has them, now I have to figure out what to stamp on it so I can put it on the street behind my Pinz! Any historical info on the M116 trailer that any might have would be very helpful infilling out the blanks on...
Hi all,
I obtained a flatbed Military trailer this last month for $150.00 that I discovered is a M116A1 that was once used to mount a welding generator unit. The ID plates are missing but the configuration is unmistakeable. This is not mine but this is the basic configuration...

Has anyone seen a 710K or 712K with a ring mount on the passenger roof hatch? I am considering mounting a M36 Ring Mount on my 710K to be able to fire a M1919A4 from it.
