    Making Winch Parts for M135/M211

    I recently picked up a M211 winch with cable. Any ideas on a source for a PTO? Reasonably priced of course :wink:

    M105a3 trailer, ugly yes or no?

    What size tire and wheel is that on the 105A3? Is it a runflat?

    Nice looking trailer! [thumbzup] I especially like the crane mounted in the back.

    M101A3 DOT Lighting

    After seeing the tire and rim with the run flat insert inside I would have to believe the 101a3 has to be the ideal trailer. I like that surge brake. I cannot wait to see Gene's trailer. Honestly I've never seen one up close, only pictures. He keeps telling me I need one and I think he is right...

    M101A3 DOT Lighting

    I have to say, that is an impressive tire/rim combination. WOW! I find it hard to believe it goes on a trailer. Wow! Again Makes me want to get one too.

    M101A3 DOT Lighting

    Picked up your spare today. Will get it out to you end of March when I come to pick up the M220. I just wish I owned something your tire would fit. :wink: In case you were wondering, 35 is the number of ammo cans you can easily fit in the back of a shortbox chevy and still use the rear mirror.

    M101A3 DOT Lighting

    Nice looking rig, Gene. [thumbzup] I see those bungies may be the answer for me too. The mudflaps look great. I'm planning on going to Marshfield Wi end of the week to pick up your spare tire and wheel. I'll bring it out end of March. Where do you plan to mount it? are you thinking on the tongue...

    XM211 single axle conversion

    Honestly, it was all by accident. I live within eyesight of a US hwy 53 and don't like it because everyone keeps tabs on me. But this morning a man stopped and asked me aout "them trucks." He was wondering if I wanted another. what he described was a paperless M135 used off road. I really need...

    Hardtops and Heaters

    I'm going to get more pics early next week. Just turned colder. The workmanship is "not too bad" on the single axle conversion. Some of the planning was great. Brakes are flawless. spring mounts were like they could have been done in a factory in the 80's, but then there is the choice of axle...

    XM211 single axle conversion

    That stinkin' thing I should have never started. You mean this? If you ever show up for a work day I would think about it.

    XM211 single axle conversion

    I traded for it with the intention of taking the parts I want (everything I just mentioned) and sending it down the road, but.... Oh yea, clear title. :D

    XM211 single axle conversion

    Here is the reb shifter-I've never driven one before. I don't understand the cyl on the steering.

    XM211 single axle conversion

    It has a winch and single PTO. The REB kit is awesome, fun to drive! The steering works very well.

    XM211 single axle conversion

    Picked up a 1952 XM211 converted to single axle today. A friend took it on a trade last month, so I took it on a trade from him this month. It is no work of art, But it is interesting. Too bad the previous owner did not keep one original axle. The conversion is not bad in practicality. Does not...

    Congrats on the M211! Don't forget to post pics of the "bubba" hardtop. We may pick up a good idea from you.

    Hardtops and Heaters

    I aquired this truck on a trade this morning. Thought the hardtop was worth posting. Looks to be custom made. 2 side panels cut to shape made from 16-14 guage steel and a top wrapped over oit of what looks close to 16-18 guage. I'm unsure of the exact thicknesses. These are only estimates. looks...
