I banged the lunette eye out of the drawbar. Should there be lubrication on the shaft of the lunette to keep it clean, rust-free, and non-binding? What should be used? I couldn't find anything about this in the M101a2 manual. Thanks, B

Oh, you said LEGALLY. ;) M105 should fit on a car hauler. The width is a bit over 6', but the axle is a bit less. They weigh a bit over a ton, empty. Okay, so I lack precision. The track width is 57" and the empty weight is 2,500 lbs. That's a bit more precise. ;)

doghead - I had a friend in high school whose dog was called "doghead" Those are two VERY nice trailers - straight, clean, with tops. Mine's decent, but nothing like those.

Ditto other replies - that is one amazing collection of quality materiel. How do you pick a favorite out of that batch?

I can't get off work that day, sorry (besides the aforementioned concern about my towing capacity). Good luck. Brian

I would like to help, as I live only an hour away from Chambersburg (to the east), but I'm afraid this is more than my Jeep Cherokee can tow. I can handle an M101 trailer no problem, but these are heavier, and since I couldn't even think about doing tandem, it would take me two trips. By the...

http://cgi.govliquidation.com/auction/view?auctionId=1299374&convertTo=USD I know these things aren't as common as the m101s & m105s, so if anybody's looking, here it is. I'd love to have one, but it needs too much work for me. I have my hands full with my M101a1. By the way, MD Pax River is...

GL has a BUNCH of M105s coming up at the Chambersburg PA location. FYI. Also Ft. Dix, also Lejuene. Chambersburg also has a bunch of M332s and a few M101s. Seems like with this quantity coming available, they ought to go for reasonable prices. Chambersburg is fairly close to me, and I might be...

Here's another problem I'm running into with my M101a1: the front top bow, left side is STUCK. I can't pound it out, it doesn't budge. I tried bracing up a bottle jack under it and jacking it out - that worked on the right side just fine, but no go on the left. Screws through the wood & metal...

Thanks for the tips. I haven't found a 1.5" socket in half-inch drive yet - I'm probably not looking in the right places. I do have a 1.5" box-end wrench (trailer ball wrench), but there is just a little too little clearance between the hub & lug nuts for that. Another hangup is the screws. I...

What do y'all recommend for tools to disassemble/repair my M101a1, particularly the lug nuts? I'm just getting started with this, and there's a lot of frozen nuts/screws/joints on this old trailer. Thanks, Brian

Garbee, thanks for the guidance. PA is much the same - you MUST have a title in order to register. I was actually behind a guy in line at Tractor Supply who bought a trailer there, and he had the PA title paperwork in his hand at the register. Like I said, PA is a pain. By the way, I have your...

I just talked to the PA DMV - man, are they difficult. They say I need to go through a court process for an "involuntary transfer of ownership." ??? If anybody else in PA has gone through the process of getting a title for a MV, I'd appreciate some tips and assistance. To get the SF97, I need...

Newbie, here. Is the lunette eye on my M101A1 supposed to be able to swivel around in the casting? Mine doesn't.

Does anyone know what the amount of wheel travel is on an M101:A1 trailer? I'm thinking of doing a spring-under conversion to make the trailer a little more street-friendly.

I just bought a M101A1 in pretty good shape from GL and got it home safe. How can I get a title and register it? I'm in PA.
