Any News here? I am looking for a Data plate for an M101A3. The trailer doesn't have one currently. It looks like they added a box to an M116A3 chassis.
Is David Kelone still selling the plates?
Thanks for all the replies guys, Ike is correct. If we remove the generator from the trailer we fall into a permanent installation situation and the city gets picky. The same reason for not removing the wheels. I am looking at covers and protective Gel for those, the adjustable 6 ton jack stands...
Thanks for the responses.
We are trying to preserve the tires as much as possible and to level the whole thing up better. The generator sits slightly out of level since the parking spot it is in is not level. It tilts to the left as you look at it. nothing Bad but noticeable.
I could probably...
My Company Has a Large Generator on trailer on site to power the building and office systems during power outages. Is it worth the hassle to place the trailer on Jack Stands to take the weight off the tires. If we go this route should the Stands be on the frame or under the axles? It is a tandem...
I nominate Zout's Current Jeep Project. And the M37 Ambulance he is Doing with Papabear and CAMO.
That man can make rust reform into metal. Maybe we can get them to post up a few pics.
That Trailer was on the Expo portal, the BBQ grill is a cage to contain all his stuff, It was usually covered with a tarp. At least that's what i thought when i saw the original photos.
This is an idea, this guy plans on using a rear winch and pulleys to lower his tire. If you mounted a swing away mount to the rear of the 109 and had two pulleys to rout a line through to lower it? Just a thought.
Check this out for other ideas.

Nice, Have you considered a hinged panel of 3/4 ply that hangs flat but when the bed is lowered will swing out and support the bed? Properly designed it would be low profile and plenty strong. Just a thought.
Looks good. Keep up the good work.
Yakama and Thule both make systems that can be attached to the truck. a set of cross bars and you have the basics. There are ladder stops that keep things from sliding side to side and you can get the Megawarror Cargo basket from Yakama to haul stuff if you need that functionality. I have the...
An average text message takes 5 seconds to write/read, at 55 MPH that is the length of a football field. So no matter what you have on the back of your truck, LED lights flashing in time to an uptempo beat with strippers on poles, if they aren't looking they won't see it.
I fully believe in...
