Where can I get springs for a M100? (1 Viewer)

[aktundra]

Thinking or buying a M100. PO took out the springs, and bolted the axle to the frame, to lower it, to pull it with his side-by-side ATV

Not doing a trailer restoration. Just want it functional for vehicle use. Anything special about the mil spec springs, shackles, & hangers? Can I call up my local trailer supply store, give 'em the measurements, and get a pair that will fit ?

Theses fit a m416 not sure but think they may be the same. The ones the military wrap leaves and can be found w/o the extra lift. See below.

Thanks once again the forum rocks !!
One more detail. Do these PN's work with the original shackles or do new shackles need to be purchased ?

original "C" type should work. Newer double sided will work too and much cheaper. check the spring length on m100 v m416 before you buy. My understanding was they used the same springs as the front on early jeeps for ease of swapping parts.

from: leaf spring assy NOS (springs for m416) "These are NOS government assemblies. They can be used on the earlier trailers too".
