The OP hasn’t chimed in since their first post.
It’s probably another......post once, then they figured out the issue and never will update or even post again.
Of course that helps no one.
Today I sold my my M925A2
Several reasons why, with money not on the list.
I’m not getting any younger and the big parts aren’t getting any lighter.
The new owner is another SS member.
It’s going to a good home.
I’m sad to see it go but it was time.
Looks like we bought from the same batch of trailers.
Same Unit
Amazing trailers for sure.
I love the surge brakes.
Restored brake systems on both of my M101A2’s.
Carry a spare game camera with you.
Setup where it can see whole truck.
It won’t prevent a break-in, but at least you will have a picture or video of who did it and what their driving.

Lots of new expensive CTIS parts and still not 100%.
Now I’ve...
When loaded on ship or train, the loaders tend to bend the mounts.
Fronts mostly.
My M1008A1 made the trip to the sandbox and back.
Front mounts were chained too tight at some point and slightly bent inward.
Gives it character since it was done in war service.
No idea about the side...
I would do that in a second
Thought it would be more than that.
About same price for new aftermarket wheels I’m guessing.
Freshly refurbished factory wheels would look great.
Remember, DOT will always only go by what’s on the data plate.
No matter what is done to lighten it, the original weight ratings are what is used.
A M101A2/3 would be a much better fit and look a lot better behind your Xterra.
A trailer compatible with your vehicle and with brakes. It’s a...
