    Its home!

    I had the same problem with my cheap HF magnetic lights. I tested before my first trailer pickup and found that little issues. I was able to change them in the workshop before heading out. Oh ya, nice trailer.

    M1009 Electrical Disaster while changing belts

    The wiring diagrams are available, I believe they are included with the TMs that can be downloaded. Look at the link resources link at the top of the page. Somewhat off topic, what size fuse did you use between the outlet and the battery?

    Quick, Cheap Glad Hand Inflator

    My truck came with a tire inflator connected to a glad hand by 25' of 3/8" hose. I bought a 1/2" glad hand and 25' of 1/2" hose to connect to my 3/4" impact (1/2" quick connects) for tire changing duties (works great). I have to admit I never thought of an air powered spud gun. :) Sounds like...

    Won an M101A2 & need some help

    I considered that but then I am worried about the deleterious effects of UV rays on the fiberglass side rails. I believe I will cover everything with a cheap chinamart poly tarp that I replace once a year or so.

    Won an M101A2 & need some help

    Sorry, not here. That is a nice looking trailer, doesn't it already have corners on the bows or am I not understanding?

    Finally, I get to bring mine home!

    According to Recovry4x4 "The only bolt patterns offered on the 101 trailers was the large 5 lug pattern shared with the M37 and the 8 on 6 1/2 pattern." For an A2 should be the same wheel as on the M1008. The M101 is not that big. I pulled mine home with the M1009. The trailer had a MEP002A...

    Highway speed for M1009

    Drive 55 - Arrive Alive .... or something like that (govt slogan from the 55 interstate era). Fuel economy goes up significantly when the speedo stays at 55 to 60.

    M105 Brake Fluid Type

    Thanks, but it is not my tip, just repeating what I learned on this site. I use a plastic syringe from a farm supply store to withdraw the fluid for testing.

    M105 Brake Fluid Type

    Drain a little of the brake fluid into a clean clear jar, add some water and shake thoroughly. If the brake fluid and water separate into two distinct layers within an hour or so you have silicone brake fluid. If not you have Dot 3/4.

    Solargizer install questions

    The black wire will go to the negative post that is bonded to the vehicle frame and the red wire will go to the positive post of the other battery (not the battery that has the negative post bonded to the frame). Before connecting anything use a multimeter to verify that the posts you have...
