Looking to re-paint my camo 1998 M101A3 to a desert tan color. Has anyone had any issues painting over the CARC paint using standard automotive grade paint? A local custom paint and body shop would be doing the work. When I mentioned painting over the CARC, he seemed concerned about how the new...
Warthog,
That is the detailed information I need. I can keep the heavy duty military wiring harness but modify it for the extra lights.
Thanks to everyone!!!

I'll try to be a little more clear. The 1998 trailer had the old bulb lights and a wiring harness that looked a little frayed. Put on brand new Grote LED lights and a replacement military wiring harness. All was plug and play and work fine. Installed an adapter (from eBay) that allows me to...
Since I am using a Ford F250 Super Duty to pull it, I never get to see the blackout feature, unless I cross the wires; plugging # 21 into #25 if I am correct. I am hoping someone has experimented with this; wiring these lights into a civilian system.
Right now I have a fully functioning M101a3 with brand new 24v wiring harness, Grote 82212 tan bucket LED lights, and an adapter to plug the harness into a 12v system (bought on eBay).

A little better analysis on my part with the mentioned thread would have solved my issue...:oops:. I see etrailer.com has the right brake shoes under part # BP04-160. Wearing night vision optics for years while flying ruined the eyesight.

I have a 1998 Schutt Industries M101A3 that I am refurbishing. Pulled the hubs and noticed the left brake pads are cracked; the right pads are fine.
Any good civilian source for brake pads that will work including part numbers that are easy to obtain? I did notice the stickey at the top of...
This is my first post on this forum. Proud owner of a 1998 Schutt Industries M101A3. Plan on modifying for use as a motorcycle hauler with elevated fold out expedition tent installed with on top with new elevated steel side stakes. Going to be pulling it with an H3 Hummer or Land Rover Discovery...
