    Cody, I bought this one from a guy in California. If hunt the Internet long enough you can find one close enough to go get it. Do a Google search for M416 and scan the results for hits in the Internet classifieds pages. That is how I found this one. Ebay seems to have them listed on a regular...

    Denis, The rebuild took me 2 weeks and the posting took about 2 1/2 hours to get it all up. Sorry guys, but I am not going to put strips on the trailer. It will get towed by other vehicles and my 4Runner is the only one that has strips.

    Thanks guys! Here is a fact that I had forgot to put in the posts on painting. I did all of the painting with Rust-Oleum rattle can paint. The chassis - Semi Gloss Black #7798 The tub - Regal Red #7765

    Now, many of you were probably wondering if I have taken the trailer out on the trail yet. In fact, the day after I got it home, we went out with a group to camp in Canyon De Chelly. It is attached to my 4Runner, loaded up and ready to go. It towed beautifully. I hardly noticed that it was back...

    So, here we have the before and after shots. It took a lot of work to get it done in 2 weeks, but it was worth it. It's hooked up to my van for the ride home.

    With a little help, the tub was set back on the chassis and bolted down. I installed the fenders and the new license plate. I then put the modified ball hitch adapter and the magnetic trailer lights on the trailer. I will put permanent lights on it at a later date when I can fabricate what I want.

    With the spring-over, the trailer was going to be tilted forward quite a bit with the ball hitch adapter in the first photo. So, I had it modified for the extra lift.

    I went back to work at getting the chassis rolling again. I installed the springs and axle. I put the brakes back together and installed the wheel hubs with new bearings. Then I hooked up the parking brake cable. Because I had done a spring-over, I had to make these simple brackets to relocate...

    1 & 2. I got the final pieces of the draw bar together, the landing leg and safety chains. 3. The body shop that had welded up some other holes in the bed, rewelded the drain tab and I was ready to paint the tub.

    So, I continued to work to get the chassis back together. Here you see the spring brackets are reinstalled, the extended bump stops for the spring-over and that the draw bar is reassembled.

    I ran into a little trouble here. The Line-X shop damaged the tabs for one of the drains. So, I had to wait to get this repaired before I could paint the tub.

    I had taken the tub right from the sandblaster to the Line-X shop to get it lined. I know some of you would have recommended that I do a Herculiner liner to save some money. But doing it this way, saved me a lot of time and the color turned out great.

    I got the fenders painted to see if the color was right and it was.
