    Rhino spare tire carrier and surge brakes

    Thank you, 86 humv for excellent pictures and answer. New bracket looks taller so I think I will pass on early model as I plan on pulling M1102. The expertise on this site is invaluable! Bob

    Rhino spare tire carrier and surge brakes

    Found answer on Rhino website: does not interfere with towing M1101 and M1102 trailers. Must have missed this first read. If anyone has found this not to be true please post. Thank you

    Rhino spare tire carrier and surge brakes

    I know this has been discussed before but want to be sure that the rhino carrier does not position the spare so that it interferes with the surge brakes on M1102. I know there is a pintle extension but don't want to install unless I must. Thanks, Bob

    Bought the Jatonka ones mentioned. Good fit. Back seat is laced on with paracord. Fast shipping. Thay are much more comfortable and look much more "GI"

    I almost feel guilty...

    Jeepsinker: just cranked up 3 diesels to let my neighbors know I'm steill here. Have 6 1102 trailers behind our fence so no violation. Would like a 5 ton but probably not a good idea. If you are coming this way let me know, All my friends are eccentric. Bob

    M1009 fender reinforcement

    Not good at posting pics. The plates are triangular with 3 holes for fasteners. I have looked thru my -20P and cannot find this part. I have seen several M1009 where these are rusted thru or crudely replaced. It seems that all body parts for K5 Blazers are available somewhere, I just haven't...

    M1009 fender reinforcement

    Does anyone make/sell the reinforcing plates that go in the front fender wells at the back? Couldn't find them in LMC catalog. There is a left and a right. Could fabricate but has 2 channels pressed in and flat plate would not be a good fit. Thanks

    M1102

    Picked up M1102 today at Ft. Hood. 2010, newest radials I bought! Was told Gov. Liquidation has one more lot before Gov planet takes over. Great service as always, hope it doesn't change. Sooner or later the M1101/M1102 should be gone.

    M1009 Heavy Maintenance Visit

    Not to be tedious but if you did not drill new holes then you can use the original existing holes. Again, a really terrific job on the M1009.

    M1009 Heavy Maintenance Visit

    What a great job. I may paint mine all 383 buy I'm afraid the imperfections in previous prep and paint will be be evident. My door sills are 180 degrees different installation with the thinner end to the rear. Which is correct? I marked mine when I took them out left and right. Don't mean to...

    Is Texas now charging sales tax on cargo trailers, such as M1101, M1102? Haven't had to pay it before. Thanks, Bob

    Need M1101 / M1102 tarp bow dimensions

    Having bought 5 of these trailers, my advice would be to buy a complete trailer with top, bows, brackets, and then sell your incomplete one. You should end up many dollars ahead. Bob
