M762 to a M416?

[Whiterabbit]

Been thinking I really need sides on this lil' trailer so all my crap will quit bouncing off it. Does anyone sell the 4 sides of a M416? My floor is in great shape so I should just be able to add some sides and do a lil' jetty rigging with the fenders??

The tub for the M416 is a single piece unit, four side and the floor. I think someone was making reproductions, but I last saw them a few years ago, don't know if they are still around.

As rare as M762s are getting, perhaps sell/trade it to another collector and buy an M416?

Cheers

The replica tubs for 1/4 ton trailers (M416. M100, Bantam) were for the slightly small M100 and bantams. Nobody has had complete M416 tubs for sale (believe me I looked all over). There was a company that I cannot recall that did make the panels that you could weld together, but I believe they are no longer in business. Just remember, an M100 tub will not fit an M416 frame. Good luck with your search, but you may just have to fab one out. You might try looking on Expedition Portal in their trailer section for either a take off someone might sell or ideas (drawings and such) for a custom fabbed job.

Why don't I turn this thread into a parts wanted thread, and you see what comes up?
