    Front mounted spare and dumping

    I have mounted the spare tire carrier Chris Case made for me mentioned in another thread. But now my M101 wont dump. I can tilt it by hand without the tire, brakes locked or not. But as soon as the tire is on, it wont tilt, brakes locked. I know a Budd rim and NDT are heavy, but is it enough...

    Landing leg crank

    In some research with a fellow Pwer Wagon-er, we think this landing leg belongs to something else. What do you have yours on? Is it an M101? Nick

    I see alot of post for boarding ladders for alot of other vehicles. Is there one that would work for an M101? If there is does anyone have one they'd be willing to part with? In making my 101 a part time camping trailer, I'd like to have a decent ladder for allowing the wife to get in and out...
