Picked up a set of the solid wheels and G186 tires for the M149A2 water trailer.
No more lock rings.
Will install this week.

Following this as I also got 2 from gp in Mobile reasonable but I did not get to steal them 🙃

The rims are flat on the lug face not tapered. Curious as to which lug nut will work. I have a m107 just older than the m149 but I think the same running gear. My thought was to see what lug nuts are used on my m105a3 and go that direction.

The solid rims are not the easiest to find.
Usually pricey when you do.
I was very lucky.

Those lugs should work fine.
Please post if you have any issues.

Yes, those are the ones. Tm shows both sides are right. I will need to find left hand equivalent of those washer/nuts to fit the older trailers.
Do those lugs have an inside collar to center in the hole?
Are they 1-1/2 outer diameter?
No alignment collar of any kind they are 1.5" outside I've had a couple off of the 105 when we went to Kentucky to get the gen set on the 200 so we had some spare tires for the trip but completely forget if they're all standard right hand threads and the pics I took today were both the same side

Started working on my M1101.

Got what I was told is a M1102 cargo platform, put it on and it is going to need some modification to work.

Once that is settled, will add a pair of M998 troop seats. Hopefully will still be able to use the tarp/cover. If not will add pipe to the seat backs to fit the bows. Then a bumper to mount the swing out tire carrier to. Then go camping with the kids!

Did a walkaround video if anyone is interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jb6YVCk893Q
