M 105 Trailer

[76FJ My First]

Hey Gents,

Picked up an M105 Trailer from the Taylor Armory last week. I'm going to start modding it to make it more 40 friendly. I'm looking for 2 or 3 Steel wheels to put on a new axle. I was hoping to have it done for Roundup, but that's a long shot!

I got nothing, but that is a great looking 40!

That trailer is a beast...

Trailer looks bigger than the 40. It really puts it in perspective

 

[The Jade Bean]

Wow...that trailer looks huge!

 

[warpdriv]

Looks like can put a another 40 in the trailer!

Those are heavy as hell. No luck finding an M100, Bantam or M416?

Maybe it's the camera angle that makes the trailer look so huge, but that photo made me laugh. You can probably save space by parking your 40 in the trailer bed. All you need is ramps.

BTW, fine looking truck.

LOL!

I think they make bows for that trailer, so you can park the 40 in it and have it covered

I hope you don't think we're piling on. It's all in good humor, but that trailer is pretty big and heavy towing behind a short wheel base vehicle like the 40.

I think the M105 was designed to be towed behind the full size hummers or larger (deuce) vehicles.

yea they definitely were meant for a deuce but good find. Looking forward to seeing what you manipulate on the trailer to make it better fit behind the 40..... If all else fails, put another axle on it, a drivetrain, and use it to flat tow your 40.

I'm hoping to put a different axle and matching 40 wheels on it. Apparently the frame for this trailer is the same as the smaller ones, but this one has the air over hydraulic brake system, a monster suspension, and huge wheels. Almost done painting it, then re-assembling it. Ordering the axle this weekend. And I think I finally have time enough to head over to LCS to see if they still have those chrome wheels...

I love it! Keep it coming. I know it's huge, but at the price it was too good to pass on. I mean, it's worth what I paid for it in just metal!

 

[76FJ My First]

2750 lbs empty. Lol. I had to jump on it for the price...

Super! Can't wait to see a pic of it revamped! Keep it up!
