Question has already been answered and the M101A2 wasn’t even close.

Here are a few more pics. M101a2 removed fenders, welded in new sides, stake pocket, and side rail. Built a sub frame that pivots off of the rear lifting points with some length ways supports to keep the rear frame from twisting. I used a littlegiant geated dump hoist my grandfather bought at a salvage yard in the 1950's. I think it may have been built in the 19teens. Mounted shorter tires on the orig wheels so there is more clerance above tires than between frame and axle bump stops.

If you are asking about the single axle dump. It started out as a m101a2, but we like to refer to it as a m101 highboy nowadays.

Got this M1102 yesterday. My first buy from an auction site. It is in excellent condition. It just sat on base and was never used, and was only moved around a few times. Very happy with the purchase.

Welcome to Steel Soldiers.
Looks like a good score.
More pictures are always welcome.
Any specific plans for it or just general use?
The Trailer TMs are available for free in the TM section.
Recommend checking the bearings, brakes, etc ASAP.
Appearances can be deceiving.
Plenty of stories on SS about missing/loose parts and no grease, etc.

Thanks. Just for general use. Maybe hauling my ATV and camping equipment.
Will definitely be checking the brakes and wheel bearings. It was towed 250+ miles with no issues.
Already have a spare tire/wheel for it too.
Checked the TM's and downloaded.
Plan to clean it up a bit and then can take more photos.

I never did post this one.
It's a Gichner small arms rifle trailer. Wife refers to it as the Hot Dog trailer due to the opening middle window.

I tried to buy one of those from GL Barstow a number of times, never successfully. Cool trailer brother.
I need to get spare tires for my two M1102. Can someone tell me the bolt pattern of the hubs? Found out GMC changed the bolt pattern on my 2015 2500, so my truck spare will not work.
8 on 6.5" bc, same as older Ford, Chevy and most 8 lug trailers. Notice the standard (16.5") wheel has a huge backspace and the BIG tires as compared to off a truck. Same as HMMWV. Here is smaller...pickup/trailer size 16" to compare.
