A post in the parts wanted section should score you the landing leg/chains.
If not, eBay will usually have those listed.
The landing leg and chains aren’t 101A1 specific, any 101 series landing leg/chains will work.
Is it missing the brake shoes or is everything missing?
Brake handles still...
Mine runs about the same temperature as yours.
Hasn’t been an issue in the 6 years I’ve owned it.
I had two Kubota engines. one in a Kubota L345 tractor (traded it in on a new Yanmar YT359C tractor) and my current one in the light tower.
Both used the same temperature thermostat.
Have heard...
If you strike out on the big rig tire shop, most rural town tire shops that deal with a lot of agricultural equipment will be able to handle installing the new tires/tubes/flaps.
No
I’ve used those to check readings, but as your well aware, it’s only 15A
It kicked the main breaker.
I did have it close to 125% for an extended period on a hot day.
It would handle short surges past the 125% no sweat.
But I can’t expect it to do 120+% for almost 30 minutes without it...
I did a three hour load test yesterday and it did fantastic.
Started light and worked up the load.

Was a warm day (90+) and breaker reset fine and...

It was very easy to install.
Just posted the pics and info for anyone else who's interested and might need to do same thing.
Definitely a plus on the money part. I never found a NOS exact replacement part anyway.
My Fluke and...
New part arrived
Not exactly as the old one and mounting holes didn’t line up.
I already knew this before ordering part thanks to another thread.
Just made a template and was able to reuse one of the original holes.
Expanded one other and Drilled two new holes.
Sealed the other holes with mil...
They ride surprisingly well.
(Old Fire Finder Radar Trailer modified by Raytheon).
I took this setup, full of water and Dawn dish soap, all over rough dirt roads and the ranch itself to agitate the water for a good cleaning inside.
Worked very well.
(Edit; Picture shows full tank, but the tank...
Received the new replacement transducer.
Question about the wiring.
The +- wires are obviously easy to figure out.
What about the other two marked L?
Original one is marked 1 and 2
Looks like it wouldn’t matter but I’m not sure.
I have not.
Some on here have done it on the M101A2’s.
If they fit on yours, why not.
I personally have no interest in using them.
I like to have eyes on the parts when adding grease.
Don’t hope…….CHECK
If you haven’t physically looked at your bearings yet, recommend you do so ASAP.
They are probably fine, but lots of examples of trailer looking just fine, and bearing’s are toast with rust and/or no grease, etc.
