    Anyone near Conyers, GA that can look at a Jeep trailer

    I have been doing a little research. Hopefully this info will help someone in the future. The width of an M100 is 56 1/4" (according to the data plate). This is the widest point (the fenders). The M416 is 60.5". You can remove the fenders on both of these to make them narrower by about 3". With...

    Anyone near Conyers, GA that can look at a Jeep trailer

    I don't doubt that some trucks are wider than others - it just turns out that the new f150s MUST BE narrower, because (other than getting the fenders above the tailgate opening of the truck) there was no way that trailer was going to get past the tailgate opening. An m100 would have fit though -...

    Anyone near Conyers, GA that can look at a Jeep trailer

    Well I FINALLY got it home! Not going into great detail, but let's just say it ended up taking 13hrs for an 8hr recovery. Sleet, snow, slush. Didn't take a trailer because I read that the m416 will fit in the back of a full size pickup. It WON'T fit in the back of a 2017 f150 - it was about...

    Anyone near Conyers, GA that can look at a Jeep trailer

    Yeah, prob so. I found all flex hoses on Rock Auto, delivered, for $85. I can get the calipers locally for $64 ea. Turn the rotor for $12. Hopefully the bearings weren't hurt, but I'll repack them anyway. I am working on getting the trailer - I have someone that is fairly local that said he...

    Anyone near Conyers, GA that can look at a Jeep trailer

    I changed the fluid last year when I replaced the master cylinder and rear rotors/calipers/pads - should have gotten anything out of the lines doing that. Once I replace the flex hoses and front calipers, everything will be new except the front rotors. I had the rotors turned when I replaced the...

    Anyone near Conyers, GA that can look at a Jeep trailer

    I've had a couple of offers to pick our up and deliver or store it for me. I just hate to put anyone to any trouble doing a favor for me - especially since this place has such a strict pickup time. Sent from my SM-J320V using Tapatalk

    Anyone near Conyers, GA that can look at a Jeep trailer

    Hey, now I have a new piece of kit to keep in the truck! Going to replace ALL of the brake hoses and right front caliper. Then the only things that won't be new is left front caliper and both front rotors. Sent from my SM-J320V using Tapatalk

    Anyone near Conyers, GA that can look at a Jeep trailer

    Well as it turns out, Friday, after 1:00PM is the only day for pickup at this place. This was not specified on the auction. Now, add to that the fact that your item has to be picked up within 10 business days, TODAY was the only day that I can pick it up! Or should I say the only day I can pick...

    Anyone near Conyers, GA that can look at a Jeep trailer

    I won an auction through Govdeals yesterday for an M762 trailer. I am planning on picking it up on Monday or Tuesday. My primary plan is to take 2 wheels with good tires along with tools and wheel bearing grease. Remove/clean/repack bearings, change wheels/tires and pull it home (246 miles)...
