I've heard of people using poly busing from OME, etc. I think I may go that way with my M101 as the old stuff is getting hard too find. Just a thought.

Are you talking about the spring shackles? If you are, here is a link of the place I purchased replacement suspension parts for my M-416. Give them a call if you have any questions, they are pretty helpful.

Suspension - Springs - U-Bolts - Shackles Stabilizer and more!

I am looking at replacing the ones on my M101CDN, does anyone know if they are the same as for the M416? There seems to be quite a bit of interchangeability between these trailers.

Just did this yesterday on my M101. I used Dayton RB-1 bushings and they fit perfect.

Excellent, many thanks. Same for all six, I assume. How much of a PITA was it to get the old ones out and the new ones pressed in?

I only did the ones in the springs, it was a pain. I heated them up and then just pounded on them until them came out, if you had a press it wouldn't be that bad.
