You are good.
I know air over hydraulics can be converted to electric but not aware if you can covert full air to electric.
Unfortunately I had to get up close and personal with my xm1073 as either a GSA or military forklift driver chose to hit one of my boosters. Another kind ss member gave...
The brakes are air over hydraulic. You should have 2 boosters and master cyls- one for each axle with wheel cyls activating the brake shoes.
Same air over hydraulic on many series sharing common parts such as bolster, m105, m149, m103, xm 1073 etc...
The challenge you will have is most military trailers that might work for you are going to be air over hydraulic and designed to be towed with trucks having air brakes.
Yes, they can be converted to electric and there are threads on here. I believe the average cost was $1000.
M1061 has a high...
That water buffalo was rebuilt at the Kansas Depot and explains the mint condition.
You got a smoking deal. I looked at all the m149 that sold this year and only found one other with a williams ez hitch. It was bent and totally unsafe and not serviceable for a loaded water trailer.
I have an...
Wow! What a score. Not sure if you realize the williams ez adjustable hitch on there is super rare and expensive.
Some unit gave that buffalo a lot of love.
Extended chains with latch hooks also.
I see lots of data plates on there besides the main one. Could you post pics of all the smaller ones.
More info and what the trailer looked like oe:

Wood deck might be add on when it was stripped and converted.
That is a special purpose built trailer in low numbers. Never seen that variant.
Not a m1061 or bigger brother xm1073. Looks like it shares the same running gear. Neither of those are aluminum nor wooden deck. Also they have stabilizer Jack's on each corner. M1061 have 16.5 tires, xm1073 have...
Champion labs is also iso9000 certified factories and a quality product. All they make is private labels. I think they still make STP which is the autozone main product they push now. Years ago when I first started at Auto Shack (zone) they were heavy into purolator.
For 20 years in another lifetime I sold parts.
Napa had a display made by wix which is napa of a napa filter,Fram, And ac delco .
Fram looked like it was hot glued together with something just better than toilet paper with end caps and valve that screamed junk.
Just Google it to see Fram...
Wix was already a world wide company with iso certified factories. This allows them to now offer propriety filters only Mann makes in addition to a very large coverage wix has.
Might see some consolidation on the less known brands to the flagship brands.
This and if it does not work, leave the stock unit to do the engine oil only but throw a civy transmission cooler ontop of the stack and adapt the hoses assuming the engine side has no issues or cross contamination.
How about a 3.0L v6 turbocharged hybrid power transplant for the hmmwv?
