    Aux fuel tank and setup

    Awesome! Thanks a lot for the info. It sure looked like it should work. Is it already the right fittings too? I'm definitely going to do it now. Thats a really nice trailer but it should have brakes.

    MEP-804A/B fuel float switch replacement - non-existent??

    The tank on my 804 is about 8.5 inches where the float mounts

    Aux fuel tank and setup

    I do have a couple other trailers. And I've thought about mounting the tank on the front sideways in front of the gen also. Heck I've got an M1101 cargo trailer I could use to haul the tank around with too. Lol I can't make up my mind. I do see it would be possible to mount the tank above the...

    Aux fuel tank and setup

    So I said I would get more pictures of the brake system on that trailer. It really does seem like it wouldn't be that hard to modify it to work without air and mostly with still using the parts that are there. That link I posted was just for an example of something that might work not...

    So I guess if it's the fuel tank on the vehicle it is in a different category and exempt?

    Aux fuel tank and setup

    Maybe I need a smaller tank or at least a was to know I'm not over the 119. Then I will be sloshing more.

    Aux fuel tank and setup

    I am really surprised and impressed with the way these military trailers carry loads. I stuck about 1300LBS in one of the M1101 trailers and it was a pretty tall load. I was expecting it to squat some and prepared for it to be kind of squirrely. It was rock solid and stable as could be. I've...

    Aux fuel tank and setup

    Hydrastar® Marine-Grade Electric Over Hydraulic (EOH) Brake Actuator Surge Brake Conversion System (1600 PSI) I was wondering if this might be able to go where the air system is now and function the brakes with the trailer brake system. Anybody know if that might work?

    Aux fuel tank and setup

    Thats a good point. These military trailers are very overbuilt though. The tank has baffles but it doesn't eliminate it. Thats why I'm bringing it up on here so I get lots of angles. If I mounted it above the Gens it would change and wiggle my center of gravity quite a bit. That trailer though...

    Aux fuel tank and setup

    I wonder if the air could be replaced with a surge brake type mount. I have been wondering the same thing. Since they are hydraulic actuated pads you would think it could work. I'll take some pictures of the brake system so you can see it also. I'm really happy to have picked up this power...

    I see the load bank display was pretty in sync with the frequency of the camera and showed nothing.

    Aux fuel tank and setup

    Light in the Dark is completely correct about the brakes. I don't have an LMTV, I towed it with my 1 ton. I was concerned about that exact thing when I was going to tow it back from Pennsylvania. My other concern was not having brakes on a trailer I was towing but it actually towed quite nicely...

    Aux fuel tank and setup

    These really are a good design. I got this tank and obviously a Gen or two. I am trying to figure out the best configuration so I have this tank and gen together on a trailer or possibly two trailers but I like the idea of pulling up setting the trailer and having power for days. I like that...

    MEP-804A/B fuel float switch replacement - non-existent??

    I am talking about one for an 804A btw. Not sure if that's what you're needing.

    MEP-804A/B fuel float switch replacement - non-existent??

    I did order it and received it but thought I had fixed the original in the mean time. I recently went to for up the gen and give it some exercise and realized the problem persists so I need to install the aftermarket float. The short answer is no I haven't installed and tested it yet. Sorry. I...
