M116A1 pioneer tool trailer - new to me!

M116A1 landing leg compatibility?

Looking for this style landing leg for my M116A1.

Is the casting the same as the M416? and/or the M101?

Same as the m101, not sure about 416.

PM CUCVFAN; he has a few left.

Picked this up today.

The axle is wrong, standard trailer axle with electric brakes and its way too wide. Going to change that out for sure. Suspect I'll narrow that axle or buy a new one. Thinking 16" steel wheels with 235/85R16 AT tires or something - open to suggestions.

Also need a the landing leg, data plate and safety chains. Plan to swap out the LED boat trailer lights for proper military units and then rework them to 12v.

Fun stuff - great father/son project.

I have an A3 jack leg that would bolt in the stock location, if interested PM me.

Found these pics. Looks like the M101 and M416 are slightly different. Might work, might not. Without having measurements, hard to say for sure.

And it looks like the flat is on the opposite side.

The complete landing legs on m101, m101a1, m101a2, and m101a3 trailers are interchangeable with each other but not the m416s. The leg itself that bolts to the casting (only separate on m101 and m101a1s) is same as on the m416 except for the height (m416 is a bit shorter).

Juanprado has one for me, should get it this week. The power of a good forum always amazes me.

Military lights can be converted for 12v use simply by changing the bulbs.
