What is this trailer?

[Bobert]

It says it is a gas powered Lubricating and servicing unit.

I'm not sure, it might be mounted on an m101? or maybe m105?

So I was wondering what does it do?

 

[No.2Diesel]

It contains a small air cooled gasoline engine that runs an air compressor. The compressor is used to help deliver different types of grease to a pneumatic grease gun. There are several grease nozzles each with their own reel. There are also different tanks for gear oils, etc.

If you had a business with a fleet of trucks or heavy equipment, this trailer would be pretty handy.

The trailer appears to be an M353 generator trailer except without the generator and a lube unit instead.

Trailer

It's not a 3 1/2 ton M353 trailer. I don't think this frame is shared with any other M trailer. These trailers are a lot smaller and the drop deck angle IS much more of a slant than the M353.
I've seen two different style trailers for these type unit, one with a straight front and some like this one.
The steel plate up front with the airtanks is the first I seen like that.
Those look like 9:00x20 tires so closer to a M105. Wayne

It's a 2 1/2 ton chassis trailer. It was also use for a water perufcation unit. The newer type is seen next to it in the #2 pic. It has 1 eng oil; tank, hose reel,gun 1 grear oil; tank,hose reel,gun 1 grease tank 2 hose reels and gun and 1 air hose reel. There are 2 type of front plate with the air tanks 1 has , 1 air tank and MC and the other has 2 tanks with 2 MC and a taller plate. I do not know of a "M" # for the trailer it self. The unit weights about 5,500lbs. the trailer is 3,000 -3,500lbs. Not somthing to pull behind the pickup.

Looks like a useful piece of equipment. If you need one.
I don't have quite the fleet... yet.

The green one next to it has 8 bolt cucv type wheels. It is 20 years newer too. They seem to be doing more auctions in my neck of the woods lately, I'm getting an m101a2 from the same place and I wasn't quite sure if I needed one of these too.

Can we post GL links? I thoght I put one up but maybe not.
