m101a2 Dimensions

[scranch18121]

Hey Everyone

Great site. Great threads..... and I need some help. Just purchased a m101a2 and it has the 8 lug wheels and tires on it. I still need to pick it up (waiting on my EUC) but need to know what the "outside to outside" measurement is to get it on the trailer I have to get it home. My trailer is 16' long and 6' 6" rail to rail. Will it fit ?

Also purchased a generator and am waiting on my EUC for that too. How long does it take for a first time Battle Creek EUC approval ? (won the item on Dec 18 and GL just sent to BC on January 12.

First time EUC's can take 6-8 weeks. I'll go measure my 101A2 or just look at the data plate.

73.5" wide at greatest.------looks like you will be OK
71.3" outer wheel to outer wheel.
147.4" total length.

What is the height of the Drawbar Coupler from the ground with the trailer sitting level?

Is it 22" ?

 

[AaronW]

Close. I just measured 23-24" to the middle of the lunette.

 

[bumble900]

Perfect Thanks!

Close. I just measured 23-24" to the middle of the lunette.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but I will be bidding on either an m116a2 and/or m101a2. I've read conflicting reports of the lunette height. I've read somewhere else that it's more like 30-36" from the ground?
My hitch is 21-22" from the ground, will it be tall enough to tow the m101a2 home?

Thanks

Your hitch will be fine. The trailer may not sit level, but you will not be dragging anything.

Thanks, that should save me a few $.
I'd like to have the trailer, "in hand," before I go out to get anything that I may not need.
