    116 trailer rim options

    Looking to change the rims on my modified 116 mule hauler. I would like to change the rims and tires to a smaller diameter that will still fit the stock bolt patern. I want to lower the lunette height when connected to my f150 pickup. Any suggestions?

    Mule Hour Meter Gear Drive

    TOW mule project progress

    Jason, Eddie T was my inspiration and the source for the TOW mounting hardware. A really great guy to deal with and I keep in touch with him by phone regularly. His military experience and enthusiasm with the M901 TOW equipment was also very inspiring.

    TOW mule project progress

    thanks Mike, I understand my TOW mule is one of 3. I know the guy that has one in Georgia and there may be one on the west coast that showed up at the Tower Hill show. Can anyone get me in touch with the owner of the west coast TOW mule?
