Just in case anybody needs to replace these pins in the future, the McMaster-Carr ones are nearly identical, and work just fine. :jumpin:

Not to nitpick, but the one at Northern Tool is a solid piece of metal, not tubing like the OP's.

Northern tool has the highest one that I could find.

Do you mean this?

The data plate should have the date it was received. I still have my 24V lights. Maybe I'll put them back on one side and do a comparison.

Can you check if maybe you have the new LED lights?

Looks in good shape, congrats! What are those things in the bed?

I don't know if it matters to you, but you might want to take a tape measure with you when you go see the trailer. Sometimes, these trailers may be labeled as an A3, but really be a frankenstein trailer: A2.5 where some parts are A2, others are A3.

The A3 axle is a drop axle vs the A2's straight axle. That being said, the A3 has the same lug pattern: 8x6.5

Not an exact match, but these should work. McMaster-Carr Part# 94975A848

Thanks! They're 5/8" pins, so I'll just use my hitch pin until I find a better solution.

I'm looking for the pin that holds the tailgate closed. It's a ball lock pin with a hole at the end for a split ring. Does anybody know of a source for these various bits and pieces, other than the manufacturer themselves?

I'm pretty sure they would have allowed me to tow the trailer home. My last M101A3, the guy at the base just walked me over to the trailer, satisfied himself that it was the correct one, then walked away as I hitched it up to my truck. No biggie. As I was getting the temporary lights on, he...

Yes, the M101A3 has surge brakes. Here's the technical manual for this class of trailers. Checkout page 1-14 for the various dimensions. http://test.steelsoldiers.com/upload/trailer/TM9-2330-202-14&P.pdf http://www.steelsoldiers.com/trailer-tms/77618-tms-trailers.html

Just got mine:

woohoo !! EUC just cleared, 59 days. Now I just hope what I won is still in one piece.

Hmmm it actually looks pretty good. I doesn't look like the bolt holes for securing the body to the chassis line up... too bad.

Sorry to hijack the thread but, that shelter looks nice (the larger one). Can you tell me more about it?

I always wanted to build a teardrop, and on an M116 frame, that'd be awesome!

There, fixed it for you: http://www.imagetex.com/albums/userpics/10086/normal_DSCF0033.JPG
