Stay away from the 13G. Had one break at the cylinder on the passenger side closest to the firewall. Talk about having one hellofa time trying to take that out, it was almost impossible.
If something is gonna to break, its always in a spot which is hard to get to.
Man, I was hoping it would be under a 6 pack to install. 24 pack I would never get er dun.
Since the trailer bulbs are 24v, what size 12v bulbs should I get? That should be a 1 beer job there!
Send me a PM and let me know what you are looking at getting and I can contact Matson directly since they are like 2 miles from me.
I can ask questions if you can give me a general description and dimensions of the item you are looking at getting.
I live on the Big Island of Hawaii and not Oahu...
How is the installation rating of ease (1-10) to install? (1 being Very hard and time consuming )and (10 being easy and done under a hour so no need to buy a 6 pack) until you are done installing.
RE: The trailer that I won
My truck has a 4" lift and I measure from ground to pintle and it right at the hitch height, Thats from the mouth opening of the pintle hitch.
The trailer that I won
Here is a some shots of my win! Guess you all can see why I bidded on it, Looked to darn nice to let someone else win it. I am getting the green bug bad. Now I want a M109A3.
Hard to beleive, I hate paying taxes and here I am buying from the Goverment.
I was bidding on (1) out of about (15) M116A3 and it looked liked no one was bidding on them and at the last minute someone bought them all and also out bidded me.
Did think about doing an axle swap but was fooling with the idea if their was a kit made for a conversion.
Im not all that all up to...
When I retired last year from Camp Lejeune and moved to Hawaii I had a 6x14 enclosed trailer sent for about $5000.
I finally got reinbursed by TMO.
If you are looking at bidding in Hawaii or Guam contact either (Young Brothers or Matson Shipping).
These are the 2 biggest shippers in Hawaii and...
OK, I just figured out that the M105A2 trailer indeed has air brakes and not electrical brakes.
I plan on using it for short distance (50) miles to the bike tracks and back with my M1008.
Here is the problem, my M1008 doesnt have any type of air brake system on it for towing a M105A2.
So what...
Pinched fuel lines or the sock of the fuel sender unit is full of gunk.
Somewhere on here someone mentioned how to use compressed air to blow into the tank to clear out the sock.
Other option, drop the tank and drain it and see what happens then.
Are you testing the fuel lines before it gets to...
Their is a website if you do a google search (24volts to 12 volts conversion). Even has pics to make it easy.
Might have to add CUCV in the search also.
Wish that was true, their was a lot of about 12 (M116A3 trailers) I bidded on one of them and I guess the same guy must have waited till the last 15 minutes and won them all.
Didnt look like anyone was bidding on them and my max bid was $250. 1/2 hour before the auction end looked like I was...
