To map out everything would have been. I only needed the lights working on 24v though, so about 80% of that mess was either terminated or eliminated. Took about 2 hours to find what I needed and another hour to wire it up.

Here is the inside of the magical converter box on some of the M1082 trailers. The purpose of the box is to allow the lights and ABS system to work whether connected to a 12v or 24v truck. On the front door of the box there are 2 plugs. One is a 12 pin mil connecter and the other is a 7 pin...

Curious as to how you would go about determining the current tensile strength of a specific section of an assembled trailer? Having found this measurement, at what reduction of tensile strength would you consider that part of the trailer to be weakened enough to become unsalvagable?

Picked up an M1082 trailer. Hadn't planned on buying one but it was there, for a good deal, and I needed some temporary mobile storage until I get something more permanent built. It's currently got G177 tires on there with split ring wheels. It'll have the proper tires and wheels on there soon...

I reckon I have a new thread to crash now. Simp delivered this last week. Since I name all my toys, she will be called Lucky Strike. She's a M322 EET trailer made by Holden Industries Model # MTO20.
