I don’t think the military has a specific name for it. I do know it’s available commercially. Bought mine brand new off eBay. Install super easy.

ACDelco still makes them but they are remanufactured, like most of them. Mhas been flawless for over 4 years now. Agree with above post. Get whatever you can and install. At least it’s easy to get to.

The M1101/2 trailers use a “FreeBack” backing plate made by Dexter. The M101A2/3 trailers did not have them, which is exactly why they have a hole for a Lockout pin. They are available for the M101A2/3 and work very well. I installed them on my M101A2 trailers. The shock probably isn’t the...

I like the insight of things I’m intrigued with and know nothing about. I knew about the CG issues but that’s about it.

Great pic! The guys standing next to the trailer really provide scale and show just how big that thing is.

I would recommend cleaning the best you can with a wire brush/wheel.

Should be good in reusing your bearings. Races might be a different story since their not easily removed. Their not expensive luckily. Dexter or Redline should have a new hub.

Pic of inside tank was during filling and before I scrubbed the dust from the bottom.

I was looking at eBay at the right moment and bought a NOS set of brake cables for $25. The originals were too stretched to save. I towed it around almost full yesterday for a few miles on backroads. Wow.......Huge difference. Even being 90-95% full, you can feel the water sloshing around...

I decided that it’s not worth the time and expense to install a surge brake actuator as I originally wanted. It will almost never be on a public road and when/if it does, it will only be for 7 miles of backroads to my families ranch. I’m very happy how it turned out and it is now ready to...

Well it’s all finished except for stenciling. Tows great empty around town and does really well when full around the ranch. Truck was in 4L when towing it this morning around the ranch. Up and down hills were comfortable. I know when it’s half full it will be a completely different story and...

www.crofttrailer.com might have them. It’s a standard pocket tie-down. I just saw some for sale a few days ago when searching for something else. Can’t remember now what site it was. The manufacturers almost always never deal with individuals/civilians.

A warning is not an infraction

A coat of zinc chromate will etch into the chrome and provide a great base for paint. It’s available in rattle cans

Looks good! Your little helper is ready to go also it seems!

A huge lot of NOS ones were on GovPlantet recently. Those on eBay could be from that. Excellent info I bought two myself at $60 each. Use the best offer feature.

Again, until you replace all the rubber lines, every single one, your wasting your time. That should have been one of the very first things done to the truck.

Post your part needs in the parts wanted section

A sizable lot of them just sold out on eBay. I intended to buy one for a spare, forgot about it and missed out. Amazon used to have them but that is no longer the case.

I second the o-ring. The spin-on filter takes up too much real estate for me. Original design still works just fine. The original fuel filters are plentiful and easy to replace.
