    My SF-97 came today - Now what?

    Washington State people only need reply I bought a m101a2. Just got the SF-97 today from the post office. What do I do next? Do I need to get the trailer inspected by WSP? Or do I just go to my local DOL and say "Gimme title! Gimme plate!" And just in case you were wondering: :lost:

    Searching on GL for Surplus Bows and canvas?

    GL Seems to lump a lot junk together. One of the lots has drivelines, rusty drums, a steering arm, oh and some bows from some vehicle, but not designated as to which vehicle they fit... Hunt and peck. Just like typing! And so, the hunt continues... Someone mentioned finding three pages with...

    Searching on GL for Surplus Bows and canvas?

    Okay, I have a m101a2 trailer. I know the 105 bows, if they are wood, and canvas won't fit. Um, whats a 'NSN number'? I do know there's a box of bows coming up for auction on the GL site really soon, but it's kinda far for the drive. I am tempted to just buy a canvas tarp that will go...

    Searching on GL for Surplus Bows and canvas?

    So, what do I look under, specifically? What catagory? I mean I could spend all day looking under every single catagory for, and I think I did once, but to narrow the search down, where would I narrow the search to? They really don't seem to place them under one, but a couple. Yes, it can...

    1st time: EUC 55 days, ROAD TRIP help request

    Check your HF lights to make sure they are wired right. The QC of them aren't the best. You might find, as I did, that when you have your driving lights on, the trailer lights brake lights and turns signals won't work. Just speaking from experince. Good luck and keep the speed legal and...

    Web site changes all the time?

    Not sure if this is the place. But from time to time, I'll refresh the page, I actually just hit the 'New Posts' link, and I'll get the banner ads at the top, and sometimes I won't. Also, occasionally, I'll get a listing of classifieds on the right side as well. And some times I won't. When I...

    M105A2 W/Field Mod Spare Tire Mount

    X2 here. I see the holes he's talking about. They are holes, right? Above the fenders? Drain holes for river crossings?

    Another one saved / reclaimed!

    I can watch, but was not able to listen. Was this plane empty when found? What I mean is, did the pilot bail out befor it landed in the water? Looks like a heck of a restoration project too.

    Look what I found in my M101.

    Mine was filled with air... And someone's old Starbucks cold cup.... :-( Oh, and one extra rubber wheel chock. I'm guessing to replace the wooden one. I was hoping they would have misplaced a set of bows and cover in there, but no such luck....

    Mods to do...

    I have a 2006 Dakota 4x4 with a 4.7L V8. I did notice, when pulling it home, how nice it towed. Real smooth and didn't dance around like some trailers do. I have heard that the surge brake works best when level, so when its connected to the truck, the butt of the trailer is in the air... I...

    Mods to do...

    Most of the civi trailers would be junk by the time I get done with them. I didn't know they were 8 lug GM Wheels. Sheesh, I can find those on the side of the road with blown out tires all the time! If I do move the axle on top of the springs, will I have any modifications to do to the brakes...

    Mods to do...

    Okay, so while I want to keep the carrying capacity the same, I want to make my m101a2 tow easier and not be too open to 'Frack! I have to leave it to go get parts, a tire fixed, something else' when using it. So, I do want to keep the brake system, but how do I lower the trailer to level it to...

    Look what I found in my M101.

    Some people get all the good stuff. Looks like you got some extra rails, plus a padded litter too. Handy for those emergency evacs... But I could be wrong too...

    PNW-2010-Second Annual Chehalis River Valley MV Convoy/Camp-Out

    Joined the site for info because of my trailer, a m101a2, and felt the need to meet others that have the same interests. Although I mostly got the trailer because the regular store bought things are well, junk, compared to this one. Yeah, so I'm looking into a bobbed deuce. May God have...
