    No problem. What I should have done and didn't, was kick the back kickstand down and set all of the weight on the bottom trailer then try to push the trailer down. Please take pics and report how it does. I'm going to have them put Kevin's trailer on the top of mine backwards. 4 straps will...

    OK, did a little more swapping around today. I put the 101 on top and moved it back as far as I could and strapped it down. By far this will be the easiest as I don't have to fool with popping tires off. It loaded and secured just fine. I turned it around to see if it would sit forward. I had...

    I'll swing it around today and see if it has any tongue weight that way. The last pr of these I dod was an M116 genset trailer and I put a poineer tool trailer on top of it. I backed the 116 up in a ditch and then backed the pioneer trailer on and over the wheel wells then jacked it up and...

    It fits. Tomorrow I'll try it in one more configuration. When I first put it up there I had the landing gear down and in order for the landing gear to sit on the trailer deck, the tires were all the way to the front. If I folded up the landing gear and moved the trailer back against the front...

    Using my 91 Burb. It's a 6.2 and the pump is worn so it's low on power. The last 2 I put on the car trailer but this time I'm dead headin it up. Saves 1500# both directions. The contractors at Blount Island were very cordial and had no problem using the fork lift to load my other 2 trailers.

    Well, last week I won another M116A3 from Blount Island. In the meantime I find that another member won an M101A3 and I'm going to pick up both. When I picked up the last 2 I took my car trailer. This trip will be different. Since I already have an M116A3 and M101A3 I figured I'd do some fit...

    I've done this exact stack before but they were -A1 trailers. Put the 101 on backwards with the tires removed. The leaf springs will just fit between the fenders of the 116. Sit the drums right on the deck of the 116 in front of the fenders. I had considered doing the exact thing when I got my...

    Sure, that is not a problem. Are you looking for basic condition and towability issues?
