    What to do with M116a3 wheels and tires.

    That is what I was thinking about to pull my M1102 :)

    I suddenly feel very stupid... I totally missed the dataplate on the side of the tongue as I stared at the big fancy one on the front. I'm going to go away and let everyone laugh at me for a bit. :)

    M1102 Serial Number Stamp?

    I am looking for a VIN number on mine, may I ask where your VIN plate was located on the trailer?

    Does anyone know where the Serial number is located on M1102 trailers? I need it for SF97 which is required to register as FMV in Texas. Thanks, Mike

    That was probably a good choice. Mine is a little rough around the edges compared to the other M1102 trailers that I bought. Looks like it has the lighter duty surge brake unit on the tongue and rivets instead of 6 bolts in the front brace. They didn't update it because it wasn't carrying...

    Here are a couple of my military trailers. Picked up some Tires from GL on the "SPIRIT" trailer (sans Satellite) and moved them over to my M105 behind my Deuce in the other picture. Don't know what the cage is for on the trailers above, but thought you might like seeing the SPIRIT version of...

    Stupid Tree Reached Down And Bit My Deuce

    I'm now looking at a few trees that I pass under with suspicion. May need to do some preventative chain sawing to make sure they behave. :)

    Off road modified M416 trailer

    Thanks for the links. I was definitely not using the right key words, although they seem obvious when you point them out. I will have to see if Dallas/Ft Worth has a show in the future. Edited response: Just looked up the Overland Expo, definitely don't expect to see that in Dallas/Ft...

    Off road modified M416 trailer

    I wasn't expecting for the tents to be that expensive, mainly asked to see if you had a cheaper source.

    Off road modified M416 trailer

    Very cool set up. Where did you buy the tent? I have a M1102 and flatbed version and want to change one into an explorer type trailer.

    Austrailian Civilian Outback Trailer

    Very cool trailer. I would like to convert my new (to me) M1102 into something close to that.

    Auction Rating

    Yes my 87 was the truck in question. It is in excellent condition, but the brakes needed work. I mainly bought new components and replaced as needed. I saved the old stuff to rebuild at my leisure (and they are still sitting in my garage waiting to be rebuilt. :) After replacing all the...

    Auction Rating

    I had just the opposite, my truck was listed as starts, runs and drives in the GL auction notes. I got there and was told, they didn't say it stops. Brakes didn't work, and I later found huge chucks of gears in my transfer case. I replaced all the broken parts, and it's a great truck, just...

    Hello from Texas!!

    I've heard between $1000-2000 for a good quality trailer. I bought mine through GL, and bought two good ones and one bad one. If you like to gamble, that may be an option, but you should research that choice well before jumping in the deep end. I have made several great purchases, but I have...

    Hello from Texas!!

    Here is a picture that a member posted of his 105, 1102 and 101 side by side. This was the picture that made me choose the 1102 over a 101, but don't think you can go wrong with either. Be sure to post some pictures of your trailer when you buy it and pictures of your upgrades. Enjoy :)

    Hello from Texas!!

    I just bought two M1102 trailers, one with a top and one without. I am thinking of making the one behind my truck into a off road camping trailer. What are the M101 trailers going for on Craigslist?

    M1101 vs. M1102?

    I have a 1102 with two MWO tags, looks like the first two based on the bolts replacing rivets and a cast surge brake. What is the last one "MWO 9-2330-392-35-1, Steel Draw Bar"?

    Keeps logging me out.

    My security software will delete the cookie even if I ask it to "remember me" after a while, and definitely if I close my browser.

    LMTV recovery and failure, home now

    Makes me wonder if they drained the oil out of the axles, which would cover all trucks, not just LMTVs.

    Tired of fighting the hood!

    do I understand your setup correctly; I wouldn't have to drill any new holes in my firewall to mount your kit?
