great looking combo!! Makes me want to put my M1010 and M1031 together. I do have both.

Nice job!!!!!! Do you have any pictures of inside the back of the M1010.

 

[Recovry4x4]

Interesting trailer for sure! I think that might just be the perfect combo for the ALCAN trip.

Curious about your hitch setup, is it permenantly in the way or can you remove it and still use the steps?

 

[panzerwillie]

inside

Yes you can remove the hitch and use the pull steps here are some pictures of the back it has 110 volt A/C microwave, fridge and flat screan tv with VCR player , either you can run it of inverter or outside power supply..

Looks great. Nice work.

 

[panzerwillie]

Thank you my next project is a M1031

 

[Baradium]

Is this convoy for a vacation or a one way trip? Have any of you done it before?

How much does that trailer weigh? How about the combo weight?

 

[gijoe13]

Nice job. Thanks for the pictures.

 

[Baradium]

Nevermind, I just discovered the convoy thread. Real pity, I originally planned on that week to do an alcan drive myself, but none of the trucks that need to make the trip are ready.

Not sure what the combo weigth is but the trailer box is aluninum of a m880 dodge contact body i guess was call m1031 as well ,and the chassie is a M101A2 i belive thank you

The chevy M1031 CMT uses the same style box as the old M880 CMT's. Pretty much the same thing.

You did a great job mounting it on that trailer frame. Looks stock.

If you don't want to haul it all the way back home, you can leave it in Canada. I would be more than happy to get rid of it for you

Sweet! Great job on all mods! Hope the trip is safe with no breakdowns. That run is the trip of a lifetime. I made that run 20 years ago with the wife and son.We took 2 months round trip from CA. What fun and adventure!

 

[panzerwillie]

Thank you for all the replies , i got the trailer already mounted on the frame is sweet, it does keep everything dry, did wanted to put my small 10KW diesel generator in it but just ran out of time to put the unit back together with a new head unit so we are running a 5kw gas unit for now , never gave it any thought but i guess would save fuel on the way back if i deside to part from it...
