Oh, and I'm happy to share CAD files if anyone has a need for them. Have made a pretty accurate model of the M103A3 trailer body.

Sure thing. I'll keep you guys posted. Have pretty much finished designing the enclosure. Only trying to decide how much I want to extend it. Definitely going to add two feet onto the rear, but am thinking about moving the axle back two feet and adding another two feet to the front of the box...

Oh thanks but those are two different trailers. The first two pics are of the M101A3 I just bought, and the last one is a screen capture of the enclosure that I'm designing/building for my M103A3.

Cool! Just bought an M101A3 with an enclosure to use as a moto-hauler / mini-camper to tow behind our smaller trucks. Also have an M105A3 that I'm building a bigger enclosure for and that's going to serve as a mobile workshop / toy hauler that I'm going to drag around behind my M109.

Those CBC shelters are sweet!

How sketchy was it towing those two trailers with no brakes?

Yup, that's essentially what I did the first time around. Used a 12ft uhaul box. Depending on your needs, that might work out great for you.

That's exactly what I need. Tried building one by putting a uhaul box on top of an M353 trailer. Waste of time and money. Next attempt is going to be a custom enclosure built to sit on top of an M103A3 trailer. Expect that will turn out much better.

X 2!!! That MKT-90 looks rad.

I don't know anything about that trailer, but couldn't imagine that you'd damage it by towing it. What I'd be thinking about is making a driveshaft and coupler for a deuce/5-ton though. It's highly likely that my M103 trailer will end up with another deuce rear axle under it someday...

What kind of truck is that supposed to be hooked-up to? Would love to know more about how the military transferred power from the truck to the trailer.

Started designing the enclosure for my new M103 trailer.

I want to know more about these. I would really like to be able to haul shipping containers behind Mah Deuce, and I thought I was going to have to use a regular 5th wheel dolly and shipping container trailer. Anybody have any experience with these things? Looks like there are manual and powered...

Oh, I didn't even see that trailer was yours. Yeah, that thing is rad. And a WR250X? Nice scoot.

Yup. Hi Kelby!

Just picked up a really nice M103A3 flatbed trailer. Planning on building a (removable) enclosure for it, to replace the M353/uhaul trailer I built. This one will be just a little bit smaller and it has a lot better ground clearance.

Everybody's saying the same thing. Seems like no matter where you are, what you want/need is somewhere else.

M353 trailer with a 12ft uhaul box set on top of it. Plan was to use it to haul my tools and dirtbikes and junk behind Mah Deuce. Decided that I want to build something a little bit smaller though. Picking up a trailer that looks sorta like an M105 trailer, but it's got a 10ft flatbed on it, and...
