Just starting to dabble into some trailers. I picked up a m105a2 trailer last week and it’s landing gear has 2-wheels. I’m looking to go pick up another m105 and the pictures only show a 1-wheel landing gear.
Is it because of a design/year change? Just curious.
Thanks
I agree about the salt. I’m not real interested in winter driving here in Ohio because of the obscene amount of road salt, but, cruising around the property is always fun.
I appreciate all the replies. I totally understand this big truck isn’t magical because it’s big, but just thought I’d...
Last winter was my first winter with a duece. The wife and I have about 20acres and I took it out into one of our small “pastures”. The field grass was about 8-10” tall and then we had about 6-8” of snow on top of that.
Anyways, I couldnt go ANYWHERE without the front diff engaged, and even...
Looks like a great setup; for me it would take a few years for the pay off as I don’t run 100% wmo or lots of mileage. I usually mix 70% wmo, 20% diesel, and 10% gas.

Nothing but that clip. Hence they fall off or break periodically. You would think there would be a better way, but I guess as a potential wear item it’s easier than a new plunger rod, which would mean a new HH.
Last time I bought some was a few months ago, I got all (3) orings for $13.55/free shipping. That was off the popular auction site. I searched and searched for the best price and that was it, these are also viton.
I can post a link if I’m allowed…
I was just hoping to find someone who’s been through one a few times that might say; “X” always needed replaced, or “Y” was always worn out. Kinda the common things I might find when digging in. I’m not looking for a “complete” rebuild, but if “X and Y” always needed replaced, then I’ll do that...
The only “issues” are leaky gaskets/seals. Mainly the IP body/housing and that’s it. It is currently on a running truck, so it doesn’t seem to have any other issues that I’m aware of.
What other pieces and parts would be needed or be wise to replace when tearing apart the IP to replace gaskets? I already have the “basic” gasket kit, and the HH orings on hand.
I was hoping maybe someone who’s been through a rebuild could offer some advice on what might need replaced, or what...
