Well, its been slow going, but finally making progress on the trailer! Spent the weekend working on the following in prep for my camping trip...(9 days and counting)! Checked the bearings; they looked brand new with lots of brand new clean grease in them! I was amazed at how clean the...

Hey guys - So I moved 2 tons of stone about 8 miles in my trailer this weekend - loaded like that it sat nice and level, and other than the tires flexing like crazy (new ones are on the way and should fix that), it managed really well, however one of the hubs got kinda warm, so I figured I...

So I recently acquired a Mechron version of the MEP-501a (ASB 2D/DND6) - I really didn't expect to get it for the price I was willing to pay, but hey - I'll take it! Now I have a few questions that I'm hoping someone here can help me with. I want to use the genset to recharge a 24v battery...

To all of you that are using MEP-802a's (or 002's or other gensets) without tying it directly to your house panel, how are you distributing the power off of the lugs on the genset? I don't want to tie the genset into my house box - ideally, I'd like to have some kind of portable distribution...

Well, I picked up my 2 802a's from Fort Meade yesterday - the G/L guys at Ft Meade were first class! Got them both home and unloaded last night, but didn't have a chance to look at them until this afternoon, and I didn't spend too much time since it was pouring down rain. I don't have any...

Well, I'm the winner of 2 802A's from the Ft Meade auction that just closed at 5pm today. I think I got decent units, but it seems to be a crapshoot so we'll see. One of them had the exhaust flap, and the other one I'm guessing had it...there was a thin coat of snow on the entire top, and I'm...

Well, went and recovered my first M101A2 today. Purchased from GL at APG in Maryland. Seems to be in decent shape - the canvas top has a couple of minor rips, there's some rust on the lunnette, and the data plates are scratched up some, but overall, not bad cosmetically. I probably paid a...

Hey guys - About the only thing I know about tire/rim fitment is that I don't know much about it!!! aua What I know: * I think I know that my M101A2 comes stock with GM 16inch diameter 8x6.5 wheels * I know that my Excursion and my F250 both come stock with 16inch 8x170mm wheels...

Hey everyone - I'm looking into getting an M101A2 to use for general hauling, and for camping. I'm looking into adding a removable rack that I can mount a roof-top tent into. I'd like to be able to add the rack above the bows and cover so that I can still use the trailer for storage and...

Hey everyone - new guy here from Maryland. I'm looking into possibly buying an M1028 or M1009 and thought I should check out the site and get some info before I take the leap. Seems to be a ton of good info here and I'm looking forward to hopefully join the club of MV owners soon. :grd:
