There is a 5ton version of that truck. It has tandem rear axles. 2 axles = 2.5 ton 3 axles =5ton

This might help. This pic is looking into the trailer cable. The drawing in the lower left is what you would see if you looked into the "plug"on the the back of the truck.

It used to drive the Army nuts when we would convoy with them wearing our baseball hats.:o

"If it aint raining, we aint training" & "Embrace the suck" come to mind when I think about the water tightness of the cab on my M818. I too employ the "big ol tarp" when I want to keep the rain out of the cab while it sits.

Speak for your self. My last four years in the USAF was spent at Ft Riley. I spent my fair share of time driving in convoys.

I dont think they will fit over the brake drum.

Duct tape and bailing wire to the rescue:whistle:

The heavily loaded car trailers you used to tow with your yukon probably had trailer brakes. This thing will not have brakes. Going to be a handful behind your tow vehicle.

:) Nice timing on this question. This week Ive been using my 101 to haul gravel for a small job at work. This pic is 3200# in the trailer. You can hardly even noticed its squated down. *edit* demil Q just means you have to fill out an EUC to own one.

Who needs a truck to buy parts for? I was therepoking around once and scored some good tool boxes. Sometimes you never know whats in those trailers that Glen buys just to scrap.

Again, Glen deserves more credit than we give him. I needed spare for my 101a2 and at less than a days notice Glen had one for me. Even though I didnt end up needing it, It was nice to know I had it there. (This was the first real long distance trip with the trailer, 1400miles) Thanks Glen.

Go ahead and unbolt it. Should fall off the trans. right into your hands. :D. Along with all the trans fluid.

Not sure about the brakes on that one. (prob. air over hydraulic) but I believe the lifting is done by manual pump cylinders.

They weren't the trucks in this thread were they? http://www.steelsoldiers.com/general-gl-questions/91823-buyer-beware-gl-auctions.html You'll have to contact Warthog to find out the sale# and lot #'s for the trucks in that SNAFU

Has anyone contacted GL and informed them of the mistakes? I have seen mistakes in lot numbers before (in person) and told the GL rep onsite and the lots were pulled and re-listed later with the corrected photos.

I had to go out to the garage and make sure my Jeep was still there. :D Good looking set up you have there.

Or on vehicles that get "air born" when out playing

Verify that the engine will shut down properly with a qwik pull of the shut off before you get on the trailer and find out the shut off cable doesnt work. :shock:

The MV housings use 2 seperate grounds. One on each mounting bolt. I would remove and check/clean each bolt mounting surface. It sounds like your lights are finding a ground through the other bulbs.

Probably a ground problem. Are you using the original MV lights with 12V bulbs or civiy trailer lights?
