    Upcoming recovery at Ft. Bragg, NC

    Tracer, If push comes to shove and they will not give you more time, I live about 30 min from base and can do a pick up for you. I have never had to ask for more days at Bragg but have at other bases and they were ok with it. I just picked my m1101 about 2 weeks ago. It pulled fine behind my f250.

    Chronicle of a tan M1101 trailer purchase from GovLiquidation.com

    I saw a post on one of the threads for LED replacement bulbs for it but the cost was like $17 per bulb x 4= ouch! On my Ford F250 the 7-way plug in has a cap that covers the outlet when not in use, when in use it locks the trailer plug in so the weight will not pull it out. But I can understand...

    "New" Pioneer Tool Trailer

    My vote is to make it into a super chuck wagon! Out fit they thing right and you could feed the masses.

    Chronicle of a tan M1101 trailer purchase from GovLiquidation.com

    Mainsail, I just took the hose clamp off, pushed the heavy black boot back, labeled and cut the wire I needed long, the ones not needed short, slid old boot off. The new boot was a bit tight but some silicone spray and it slid right on, wired the 7 way plug on, and pulled the new boot up to it...

    M1102 - Tire Size?

    Got a line on a set of chev 16.5 rims and tires. I know, I know, weird size, hard to find tire size, but there are 4 of them with almost new tires. Going to check them out. Price is good, almost free!

    Chronicle of a tan M1101 trailer purchase from GovLiquidation.com

    I was thinking about this too. I see the adapters on fleabay and it would be nice to match my F250. Something like this http://www.ebay.com/itm/8X165-1-8X170-Wheel-2-Ford-Rim-Adapters-8-lug-1-5-/160571228310?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr&hash=item2562ca8096

    Chronicle of a tan M1101 trailer purchase from GovLiquidation.com

    Yeah, I have a buddy that runs a junk yard and is going to pull 3 for me. I already have a set of tires for the rims. Once that is done I will slide my S-250 shelter in it and work on making a boarding latter and battery boxes. Has anyone ever cut into the sides of one of these? The S-250 will...

    Dang, this was my first and it went through pretty quick. Maybe because it is done under our business name? :whistle:

    So you took the tow adapter, flipped around to make the pintle higher. I was thinking about this. My stock hitch is at 17.5 " and the trailer is at 29". Thinking that much incline will mess with the surge brakes.
