    M116A3 Fix-up & Conversion Thread

    A minor tweak I made to reduce rattling. I made the safety cables double ended so that they can be removed while the generator is being used.

    Shop Equipment, Welding (SEW) Trailer - Aluminum

    Here are the data plates. The one that shows the TM is for the M103A3 that I already have, not the SEW. I will probably do a more complete "walk around" video of the trailer once I get a few more things repaired to kind of show exactly what a SEW trailer is on my YouTube channel.

    Shop Equipment, Welding (SEW) Trailer - Aluminum

    Just for tie down, the chassis, and that it's a SEW. If I remember it, I will take some detailed pictures of each that is on it to show. Normally, there is a tag that shows it. But, it's either missing or was never put on because this is an odd unit. Could be possible I missed it, but I doubt it.

    I probably do. OP, please reach out directly to me via the contact feature on my site. It sends me an e-mail directly to my business address. Things have been growing & I don't want to forget someone or that I said something. Between 4 kids, full time job, & starting my little business... gets...

    Shop Equipment, Welding (SEW) Trailer - Aluminum

    Compressor rebuild went smoothly. Got a 75/25 Argon bottle for it. Found the TM here for the chassis of the trailer, M103A3. Tweaking in a few things & have been welding a bit with it to get better.

    MEP 531A Fix-up Thread

    I'm honestly not that great with these. I've either just ended up not figuring them out or they're good. Maybe someone else will chime in with more help. I'm sorry!

    MEP 802A Fix-up Thread 3.0

    I finally got the title for the trailer, finished doing the service I wanted to do on it, & cleaned/tested everything one last time before I wanted to have it ready to list. It's a gem!

    LMTV Fan Clutch Solenoid Upgrade

    Anyone who may be interested, I have a few "blemished" kits that were attempted installs. Nothing wrong with them, just have some scratches on them & maybe some miss-matched fittings. But, I will sell at a discount of $60 shipped. Reach out via the contact form at the top of my website. When...

    Shop Equipment, Welding (SEW) Trailer - Aluminum

    Yeah, I will have this thing forever. I wish it was a little lighter, but I may look into an axle swap. HMMWV wheels and electric brakes would make it much better behind a regular pickup truck. Usually an M116 or M1101 type is the way to go, but this one is purpose built so the axle swap is...

    Shop Equipment, Welding (SEW) Trailer - Aluminum

    I got the leads fixed and the electrode holder & was able to test the ARC welding side of the welder. Don't roast my welding! I already did get a bit better. Was just winging it & making sure it worked. https://youtube.com/shorts/yCEqWWe1dWY?feature=shared

    Shop Equipment, Welding (SEW) Trailer - Aluminum

    Everyone, Got myself a SEW. Seems a TM is non-existant for it. Especially this odd aluminum model that is between the original fiberglass one & the new SEW-NG that is now out. It had most of what should have been in there as far as the major stuff, besides gas bottles. The Miller 302...

    Who made this M149A2

    Frame looks more like rust, not cracks to me. I got one that is a frame dates 1966 with a newer tank, wheels, and other stuff that looks way worse but it seems solid. Older metal flakes like that. If you clean it up, it will serve it's purpose for you fine. That is what I plan to do with mine...

    M1102 Trailer: Generator mounts

    Neat platform, but I think most wouldn't want it. If you were closer, I'd give you something for it as I could see something of a neat project for it to make a utility trailer, but you're very far.

    M105A2 trailer build/ conversion

    The M200 series is the proper trailer for the generator. Glad as I read along you found someone to trade. It brings the center of gravity way down. Not so much a trailer issue, but keep in mind the generator you have is 3 phase only. When it comes to single phase 240v going into your house, 3...

    MEP Covers

    No, the place I am using doesn't have any other colors that are remotely tactical with this good material. They might have a black, but it would be more for me to order a batch in each color when I'm not sure anyone is going to actually order them anyways.
