I hope this helps save someone some time.
My air water separator took a crap under the dash on my M931A2. It was leaking from the purge valve and the o ring, so a Schrader valve was not an option. I searched for hours and couldn't find the OEM replacement so I took a gamble on an amazon...
I would NOT bring my M38a1 there. Not a show piece, no way. If it was a beater, sure why not. It's not just about the mud, but there are a fare share of obstacles, even on the green trails, that may cause damage from flexing or rocks. Even some CUCV's and jeep Cherokee's leave there with...
Not at all. I love my M1009. It's one of my favorite mv's. I drive it more than any other. But the fact is the 24v design was ingenious on paper. Not as good in the real world. I've already rebuilt both alts and I've owned mine for 3 months. Roughly $40 each shipped for the alt rebuild...
Yes, buy a multimeter and be prepared for electrical and charging issues. Eventually they all have electrical issues. You'll be rebuilding alternators, replacing relays and an occasional run away starter if you choose not to do the doghead relay mod.

I understand how the surge brakes work. I have two M1101's and have tested the brakes on both. They do not work on this trailer but they do work on the other trailer. I have confirmed this, but I have yet to take the time to fix them due to higher priority projects.
As stated, I'm sure surge...
I believe, like m543A2 stated, that the design of these cheap risers is the major factor. I will absolutely agree that surge brakes probably complement the problem, but in my case my surge brakes were, and still are, not functional on that M1101.
In my case I was backing up a small incline...
Several people have had this issue, myself included. The simple answer is do not back up with this setup. Or backup gingerly with soldier B watching. My riser is also bent. In my case it sheared the 4 grade 8 bolts right off and the trailer fell to the ground. I was backing up a slight...
Best way to camp. Unhook your trailer and you're good to go. All your gear stays back at the camp site and nothing gets damaged or messed up. I have the 931 and m1101 on the far right.
