I just received the brackets today. I am very impressed with the quality!

Where did you take that photo?

It is absolutely pouring down rain here, but I'll try to take a photo once the rain stops.

If it was me, I'd keep looking for an M715 bed. Even if you have to go a longer distance to find one, that is a whole lot easier than trying to adapt a trailer bed. Also, once finished,your truck with the correct bed is worth more.

How much do you charge for a set? I like the 51-R by the way. EDIT: Sorry, I just ordered a set from Fil Bonica.

Eastern Surplus

I finally got the M151A2 home from Pennsylvania, a 13 hour drive each way in my F250 pulling a U-haul car trailer. I put the M151A2 on the U-haul and put the M416 in the back of my F250. It turns out the M151A2 was a TOW vehicle. The data placard was a replacement that wasn't filled in with a...

I used United States of Freight to move a FLU419 from Philadelphia to Georgia and they undercut everyone else's price and did an excellent job.

I would stick with the M416 trailer due to it being narrower and light. Very maneuverable on trails.

I just purchased an M151A2 with M416 trailer, but won't pick it up until sometime next week. I'll add photos once I pick it up. This is a virtually complete 1/4 ton with top, doors, ROPS, etc. It has been in inside storage for decades. The engine runs fine. However, it needs new batteries...

I recently replaced the Exide orbital AGM batteries in my MEP003A genset. They were a fantastic battery, and I got many more years of service than I expected. I went with the Optima Red Tops as a replacement. After one year, one of the Red Tops failed. I tried resurrecting the battery by...

Perhaps it's an indication that the part was for military use?

I understand the width of an M416 trailer is exactly 60.5 inches. The 8-foot bed of an F250 Super Duty is 66.9 inches, which means an M416 trailer should fit nicely in the bed. However, I'm a firm believer in talking to someone that has done it. I know I need to account for the F250 wheel...

I lost power two days ago when it was 2 deg. F. outside. The power had been off about 60 minutes. The MEP003A fired right up without problem. I ran it for about 15 minutes powering the house, when the power came back on. I shut the generator down. The power went out three more times, but...

As Karl Kostman said, put some weight in the back. My previous M35A2 did OK in the snow with a lot of weight in the back. I have 40 acres which are very hilly/mountainous and I have never gotten stuck in the snow and most of my driving is off-road. My M35A3 with Michelins does a whole lot...

I've attached a photo of the part that is missing in your photo. It looks like a regulator, but I'm not sure what it does. I had to lay down on my back under the SEE in ~5 deg. F. weather to take the photo, so I didn't stay there very long! Someone else may recognize the item and know what it...

I've been using Rustoleum Rusty Metal Primer for years and have top-coated with all kinds of paint on all kinds of surfaces without issue. The label says to topcoat within one hour or after 48 hours. I have successfully top-coated almost immediately after applying the RMP and have never had a...

When I replaced the shock absorber in the surge brake actuator, it cost me $53.95, including shipping from Croft Trailer Supply in Kansas City. However, this was in March of 2014, so prices have obviously increased. I also initially did the trick with the bolt or pin to keep the unit locked in...

The clutch switch definitely works. I intend to check both air pressure and 24 VDC to the solenoid prior to tilting the cab. I know the overall pneumatic pressure is good and is set at 106 PSI. However, that doesn't mean that one of the air lines feeding the solenoid isn't plugged up. When I...
