I've got 2 of the 353 trailers and they are great! Rated to haul 7.5 ton, they usually have a 100kw genset on them.
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
I have one as well. Haven’t done anything with it yet but it is way too cool of a trailer not to pick one up!!These M-353 are nice trailers & are in excellent shape from the remanufacture process. I took one to work as a show & tell & it was sold before halfway thru the day. Guy needed a trailer to haul a diesel tank & that was all she wrote. I still have three left for generators & other stuff that needs a home here in the country!
Yeah I go down for the week. Went down Saturday and put up the tent.I wish I was going to the machine gun shoot @ Knob Creek also. That was lots of fun for the 10 year period I went. You look like you are loaded & ready for 3 wakeups & then hit the road. Enjoy!
A little paint and it'll be a beauty, nice score!View attachment 779255
I pick it up next week.
Lots to do and first thing is a good power washing.
400 gallon tanker trailer Should come in handy at the ranch.

Big plus is it's less than 40 miles from me.

Post your parts needed in the Parts Wanted forum.Well, I don't know about (Just) Today..But I am trying to source a set of Brake Drums, Brake Shoes and Springs! for my trailer.
Worst deal and outcome ever in all my many years.
I bought the trailer from the E.U.
The seller a private 'Dealer' had it delivered to me on a German registered arctic unit.
Looked OK so we put it in storage.
When I took it out after some time to service it and adjust the brakes, I could not get the brakes to work, Although the rods and actuators seemed to be working fine.
I took of the outside pair of wheels to check the reason..
******!!!!, There were no brake drums! And no brake shoes or springs.
The actuators were there and working ok.
I was SO P...., off...
I an STILL p.... off....The seller came up with, "oh I thought they were there and working".
He purports to be looking around for some parts for me...,To date nothing heard back from him.
Can anyone here help?.
