I won two of the M1o1a1's, couple of questions:

1) will they both fit on my 18', 12,000 utility trailer.

2) will I need to take someone to help with loading or do they load them on the trailer.

3) do I need any special tools/equip.

Thanks

1) Yes. I've hauled two on a 16' trailer.
2) It depends on the site. I've always had them load me without any problems but some sites won't. I'd call ahead to make sure.
3) You shouldn't need any special tools if they will load them for you.

I always go prepared to self load- nothing sucks more to drive that far and the Government Liquidation forklift won't start because they don't maintain it.

I take a pintle hook for my reciever hitch and a couple of jackstands. If it comes down to it, unhook your trailer, put the jackstands under the back so you can drive up on it unhooked, and use your truck to load them. Make sure you set the jackstands a few inches short and let the trailer settle down on them as you load, or else once it is loaded they will be stuck there.

Just to set your mind at ease. 105 and a 101 on a 16' trailer. 2 101's will be just fine, Like stated above be prepared to load them your self (winch, come-along, or drop the trailer and use your own truck)

ps youre required to take pictures and post them here when you make a recovery. :p

Ok, So call in advance and be prepared to load them myself. I have the jack stands & pintle hitch, A huge ratcheting come along, a large belt winch built onto the trailer, and lots of log chains, ratchet straps and booms so I should be good to go.

I'll take some pics with my blackberry once I get them loaded...Thanks
