Thanks for the info on the POR-15. I was only planning to use it on the frame rails and then bedliner the bed inside and out. I wanted to not have to work on it again once I get it blasted and painted. The work is easy I have a plasma cutter and welder but I was curious how many other had...

I recently discovered that the space between the fenders on my M101A2 were not wide enough to fit a sheet of plywood or drywall. I was at Home Depot to pick up 40 sheets and discovered this the hard way. I am curious if anyone has widened thier fenders and if they have any pictures of the...

I removed the ring and master to replace with a different coupler. This is my second M101A2 and I have never been happy with the stock braking. I have had a number of problems with it in the past and just want to eliminate them before I completely rebuilt/redo the entire trailer. I want to...

I would like to try and keep the costs of adding electric brakes to the trailer to a minimum and at the same time retain the 8 bolt hubs. I am curious if anyone has just replaced the backing plates and drums to convert to electric without replacing the entire axle? Weight is not a concern but...

I paid too much for my trailer but they are not easy to find in Canada at all. I bought it from a private sale. I believe they were the first owner after the Canadian Forces. I wish I could buy them directly from the US Gov auction listings but they will not allow for export including...

I will also be adding to the original tailgate a ramp something like this. ATV Ramp, Loading Ramp, Truck Tailgate Ramp and Llama loading ramp I think I may have found the issue with the tailgate pins. I will order some bearclaw latches and pins then use a chain eliminator kit like used on...

I understand the issues with electric brakes but I just like the ability to control the trailer from in the cab a bit more than with surge brakes. I had nothing but issues with the surge brakes on my last trailer as they would stay on and drag increasing the bearing temps. 90% of the time when...

It is a Canadian M101A2 that originally had a 60kW Deutz Genset inside which was removed before I owned it.

I want it. Can you post more info about this unit? What was the intended use for the CBC covers? I would love to find one up here but even the trailers are hard to find in Canada.

That was actually my old trailer. The new one I just purchased came with the same aluminum cage as well. It is a Canadian version of the M101A2.

Well I just purchased an other M101A2 after selling my last one. I regreted selling it so much I had to have another one. The new one I purchased needs much more work that my last one and is missing a bunch of pieces. I am not sure where to start on finding pieces for it. Here is the list...
