    New M1101 Trailer Conversion

    First 2 pics are half ton trucks and m105 trailers around 2800 pounds. Third pic nearly made me swerve into oncoming traffic on purpose. Truck easily pulled it but bounced the entire way home... Violently!! 1/4 ton trucks pulling 2800 ish pounds.

    Should I cut U Bolts for upper torque rod replacement????????

    Seems like grinding a socket would be cheaper and easier than buying u bolts and replacing them.

    New M1101 Trailer Conversion

    I pulled a m105 with a ranger. How does a m1102 squat a tundra?? Im surprised I pulled a m1101 loaded with mulch with a ranger and it barely squated it.

    I guess should be happy they didnt take an axe to to the tires and differentials.

    2005 Yamaha Rhino From Govplanet

    At least the differentials still had fluid. Thats the bad thing it wasnt junk until they purposely put holes in it.... Do they knock holes in the bigger vehicles like hummers and 5 tons? I guess a fuel tank radiator and a master cylinder would be much more expensive for a hummer or bigger. What...

    2005 Yamaha Rhino From Govplanet

    Well my fear was correct. THERE IS A HOLE IN A THE FUEL TANK ALSO!!! Should I just always expect there is holes in everything that holds fluid on GOVplanet? This is ridiculous.

    No its just like the ones you can buy from a Yamaha dealer except this one has Govplanet stickers all over it! Haha I wish it was more like a mgator. I work at a conference center that has several gators none are the mgator. Ive been wanting one since I saw one. The rhino was much cheaper than...

    2005 Yamaha Rhino From Govplanet

    Ha ha good point. They drilled a hole in the radiator and master cylinder but didnt worry about the 2.3 quarts of engine oil that went everywhere. I just cant believe they ruined those parts just because of bad crank bearings.... Either way I should be riding around on it soon.

    2005 Yamaha Rhino From Govplanet

    Wow..... I guess at the least the radiator doesnt cost 900 dollars like they do for some big trucks.... Either way its almost finished!! Im excited about it. The only one sold by govplanet that I can see.

    2005 Yamaha Rhino From Govplanet

    2005 Rhino 660 The engine was laying in the bed condition unknown. Turned out it had bad crank bearings, missing the cylinder head, intake, and a ton of other parts. I sent the engine off to be rebuilt. All is well with that part. Reinstall it and I have no brakes there is a hole intentionally...

    M105 axle replacement

    Looks great. I also burn a lot of firewood. Right now im using a m1101 and the bed of my deuce. I want something lower. I recently bought the one and only rhino on govplanet. Trying to get it running for firewood also. Has anyone flipped the axle on a m105 without blocks? It looks close to...
