This is my latest trailer mod and I love it. No more tailgate issues off pavement.
What did you put in your military trailer today? (3 Viewers)

Corbet,
Did you have problems with the pin popping out? We have had similar problems with ours. I offended wondered why the military didn't solve that issue long ago.

Correct. Now it can’t pop out as the pin can’t rotate to align until the clasp is released.
Took the M101 CDN down by the river for some fun and pics along with the drone....
Kinneys Ford is about the only 4x4 run we have left in Central Illinois...
Here I fly around and wave to the drone...

Small stumps.
About 1000 square feet of 1x6 Western red cedar on the M116a3.

Nice looking trailer! Did you do an axle swap or find some 8 lug rims that you liked?
Heard about axle swapping for reduced weight. Yet the way it is, seems very effective and fine by me. The wheels and tires I got on it when purchased (33”). Re painted not long ago, and inside has been compartmentalized for storage and a Sleeping padded area. It was a communication trailer, So the “Cage” is very robust and heavy duty Aluminum. Up top is corner access for heli connection, I’ll use for Roof rack attachment points. Best thing in my opinion is the parking brakes, Hills/inclines don’t matter anymore
Inclined parking no problem
M101a1. 4740 pounds. Hauled about three miles.
Nice load, is that lime?
Just masonry sand. Hauling it to a building site that a dump truck can't get to.

Is that the payload or total with trailer?
That's the amount of sand. I asked for two tons and he went a little over. The loader and bucket were massive.

Final wood cutting day for the season.
Looking good! I loved my MS290, unfortunately I destroyed it. Are you cutting on your own property? Looks like pine, but still must be pretty heavy.
