Thanks fir the add: my War pig broke down..... lmao. FML. There's only one more mechanic in Rockwall that hasn't worked on it yet...I dropped it off there. It's a GD mystery..... it's a diesel and we replaced the fuel pump and filter... it ran perfect for 200 miles, then had the same problem...

I bought a 1986 M1009 and I can't seem to kill the gremlin that's plaguing it. Here are the symptoms... and what I've done to fix them...it starts and runs perfectly, always. I drove at high speed (75) and long distance 60 miles... it ran great, then out of the blue it turned sluggish like it...

For anyone interested, I have done some research on making my tires sit fatter: Junkyard finds on the cheap for the M101A2 8 on 6.5 wheel Hummer H2 2003-2007 17x8.5 Suburban HD2500/3500 2008-2011 17x7.5 Dodge 2500 2003-2010 17x8 Dodge 2500 200-2002 16x8 Ford truck F250/350 1992-1997 16x7 Ford...

Those diamond back tops are freakin bad to the bone... you can haul two 4 wheelers on top of them and they have butterfly doors. Custom fit to your trailer/truck. They are about 1500 bucks. I didnt want to spend that much but WOW! The cool factor is worth it.

All great posts and ideas!!! I have a 2005 TJ on 35's... how about this idea... get a $500 rear disc brake kit for the jeep and remove the idea of trailer brakes all together?

Thanks! so the 7 pin plugs will allow for electric brakes control...thats great. I am looking for a 16x8... most stock steel wheels are 16x6 or 6.5 I am also looking to lose some weight... the surge brakes weigh a ton. Wider stance is also a "want" All of which I want to do on the cheap...

I know its probably already out there somewhere on these forums, but I didnt see it. I have my M101A2 and its such a PITA to find wheels for it that are wider (8 on 6.5) lugs... I think replacing the axle to change wheel pattern and switch to electric brakes and to save weight sounds like a...

Awesome trailer Thanks Harley! looking more closely at these photos I can see the bows. Do they shed the water well? I am building mine out of pvc with 45 degree elbows.. they have about a 6 inch arch to them. I contacted your tarp provider! thanks again foe all your help, and of course...

Thanks! Do you know anything about "dual" power, i.e. tow vehicle battery and solar panel wired together? I assume the solar kits have a little " controller" of some kind that regulates the charge? What would I even google? Portable solar?

Excellent! I am ashamed to admit I knew nothing about trailer wiring before I bought this M101A2. My jeep and now the trailer were both rewired for 4 flats... but with this knowledge and a trip to Northern, I can buy 7 way adapters and I will only have to run the power wire on the jeep as well...

No picture? With the tarp installed over the bows I mean...

Hey Harley! I am working on building some bows for my trailer. I am using PVC with 45 degree elbows and sliding them into the stake pockets. Do you have pictures of your tarp with the bows underneath? Derek

Hey guys! Has anyone placed extra batteries inside these trailers to run camping gear and lights, etc. Is there a way to have your trailer lighting harness charge from your tow vehicle? Like Harley, I plan to run a water pump and such.

Thanks guys! After more research, the closest matches are as follows: 82-96 LWB Ford 73-87 Dodge LWB Both are about 72x99 You could also make just about any hard cover work by welding a 10-20 inch sheet of steel across the tongue end of the cargo area and fab some hinges to it. I recently...

Yes! I am looking at options for a cover of some sort... a topper or camper or toneau cover etc... if I could shop around using a specifiec "truck" bed for size thats equal to the M101A2 cargo bed size it would be much easier to find what I am looking for as most internets sites classify things...

Bed Size I know the measurements are about 101x73, but what I mean is... Is there a specific model of pickup that you can use as a template on websites drop down lists, etc... like a Chevy Silverado or Dodge 1500 etc

Tarp Cover - M101A2 Harley, What size did you order on the tarp? What type of bungee do you use? Derek

Does anyone know what pickup truck bed is the same size as the M101A2? I wold love to have a cross ref so I could hunt down used parts that may fit on the trailer.

M101a2 What is the standard width of the wheel on the M101A2? What is the "best" cheapest junk yard replacement wheel to run bigger tires, say a 33 inch?
