    Are my leaf springs broken? M101A2

    This trailer was overloaded causing the spring to flatten out and scrape the paint off the main leaf. Should be just fine.

    Are my leaf springs broken? M101A2

    The springs on my 1990 M101a2 are cut the same. Both sides front and rear are flat trimmed at the wrap. The other two leaves ate tapered.

    M100 M 100 Rear Panel 1952 Trailer Reproduction

    http://www.willysacres.com/trailers.html It looks like a simple item to make out of flat sheet. You can find the tie down hooks on ebay and have a fab shop ball roll the two stiffeners in. With all the hot rodders and truck pullers near Warren pa. You should be able to find someone.

    New M101a2 and I need help with Pintle

    I vote white for paint to match the JK. Like the one behind the FJ pictured. FandL on expo did a nice A1 with matching Dexter axle. http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/117096-1953-M101A1-RESURRECTION/page5

    New M101a2 and I need help with Pintle

    My favorite store is ebay. I just searched the best price. There are a couple sellers that include either a lunette ring or 2" ball coupler. The lunette assembly all unbolts simply. Then weld the adjustable channel to the nose flat. My 101A2 I cut off the landing leg pin lock. My M116A2 I...

    M1101 Modification for Side Racks

    Looks like a few brake pressed plates that bolt in the location of the bow brackets would work Make them the height of the wood rails you wish, and cut some nice oak stake sides. The front and back corners will strengthen the sides when they are all locked together.

    M1101 Upside down lunette ring

    Stonepicker1 Hit the nail on the head. They needed a higher hitch mount and flipped it not knowing it would not travel and activate the Surge brakes.

    Welding rig I made from an M116A3 trailer frame.

    Your trailer design looks very nice. Nice to use a trailer and not tie up a truck for a single purpose.

    First Post - Looking at a M101A2 - Have a few ?'s

    1. Parts sell well here and ebay. Ask realistic prices and they sell fast. 2. several rack builds that extend on expo. 3. The trailers are heavy in stock form but can be put on a diet with the listed items you are doing. Just remember that the weight adds back fast as you build. A m116A2 would...
