Hollow, of course. I could fill it by welding in a plug, but that defeats the "simple" aspect. Thanks goodness for sales and HF coupons - I don't have much in it.
No description, just a sticker on top with a 400/4000lb limit.
Thanks.
THanks for al of the advice! I bought one of these "hitch Extenders" from HF, drilled it out to fit flush with my reciever (shorten the "lever" a bit) and it works great.
My surge brake works, so I hate to take it off unless there is an advantage. The hand brakes also come in handy. Is there any andvantage (significant weight reduction maybe?)
Thanks! That looks like the best route. I took the ligts off and ran a 12V LED set to have it titled/get the plate. I have been using it, I just hate the way that it sits.
That would be the easy way, but I don't want to loose the clearance as I actually need it once in a while. I use it as the Boy Scout Gear Hauler - I bring their junk directly to the campsite. I also have a Suburban on 37's that I will use to pull the trailer from time to time.
I have a M101A2 with a functioning surge brake, but I tow it with an Xterra, so the pintle is a little high. I would rather not use an extension on my reciever because I am afraid of the weight/leverage (may be an unfounded fear BTW). So I am wondering if the surge/pintle can be lowered while...
I thought about a truck rearend, but didn't know that there was Ag equipment that had those hubs. I was hoping that there was a hub conversion that would make my life easy, but it looks like another axle is in my future.
Anyone ever do this. I have an M105 that I want to use as a camping trailer and pull behind my suburban. I am going to remove most of the heavy suspension and brakes. I would like to be able to use Chevy 8 lug wheels so i can carry one set of spares. Anyone ever convert the axle like this?
