What did you do to your trailer today.

Would you post a pic of the hitch setup?
Others might need to see what you used to keep trailer level with SUV.

I have been searching for these bulbs without success, but I will not daunted! While looking at your earlier pics, I saw the BO cat eye below the service lights was also an LED component, as well as the lights at the very bottom of the housing. Are these two pieces factory for your lights, or did you add these parts as well?

Not the same bulbs, but I found this link from another SS post: https://www.ebay.com/itm/262037336151. Gonna be trying them out on my new-to-me M1101.

I guess dragging one home counts as "Do to"

Found this excellent condition HP-J4 in a junkyard, bought it for 30c a pound (1960 pounds).
It is a DRASH trailer, designed to carry a large tent. The rear deck (from the box back) tilts 90* to stand the tent upright.

It has 2022 dated Humvee tires, and a 5kw diesel generator inside the box (drivers side, lower shelf).
The genny is a Lombardini unit, I am not familiar with those. The meter shows 12.8 hours of run time.
It has a battery and electric start, with pull-chord backup. I'm going to do some maintenance on it first before trying to start it.

The hoses for the blower, extra tie-down straps, and a bunch of tools are in the box on the passenger side.

Unfortunately, someone apparently couldn't read the "Not A Step" stenciled on the wheel well, but it is steel so should straighten out easily.

I found a picture on the web of a fully loaded trailer. Pity the tent didn't come with it!

Cheers

Trailer at home, genset, blower motor, and a fully equipped unit.

Finally got the M101A3 out camping in the North Main Woods.
I think its time to Extend the hitch 2' and swap out the Pintel for some other option, dam she's noisy!!!

Excellent set-up, 2Scout!

Maine (especially the North end of it), is indeed mostly woods (and Moose, and here and there a very few scattered people!), so guessing that was just a typo:

- Are you talking the North Maine Woods?!!

And are there even any roads way up there?

Yup you are correct The North Maine Woods

And are there even any roads way up there?

We drive 300 miles just on dirt roads within the NMW and hardly scratched the surface of what roads you can traverse. There are 3.5 million acres used primarily for logging, and they own the roads.

Bought my trailer in February. Been sitting around and was trying to sell, but no one wanted to give me what it’s worth or “won’t work for my project.”

Spent the day cleaning it up, washing all the grime off of it and cleaning it up nicely. Also, spent some time getting the lights worried up to an auto plug. I didn’t realize the lights were LEDs.

Very happy with the way it cleaned up!

It looks real fine, RockingRam96; real fine!

Looks also like it was a good year for Corn; is that field corn or sweet corn?

Field corn. I don’t know what he does but he sure as hell can grow corn. I thought he got this in late but boy did it shoot up!

Competed in a BBQ competition to support Honor Flight yesterday. Thought it was a great time to use the M1102. Didn’t win any awards cooking, but was able to weather the pouring rain through the night in the trailer.

Installed LED bulbs in the last trailer today.
M149A2
Drained water out for the winter, then drove it around empty for about an hour to exercise the tires.

Now all my military trailers have LED bulbs.
