Chicago Pnumatics compressor / generator trailer 1940's civilian and Military models made. Hercules engines.

Is the Toyota lifted at all?

Yes! One long bolt that goes across the tongue nose and holds both chains on.

As for chains on My M101A2 and M116A2 trailers. They both were long enough when hooked up to my 2500HD I did take a 2' length of chain and two quick links just in case.

Just the lights on both my M101A2 and M116 recoveries. Past a couple state boys but stayed in the right lane and with the flow of traffic.

I have done it with my M101A2 and M116A2 but only below 30 mph then in a parade.

A bill of sale will get you home. Make sure the lights work before hitting the road, if nothing else go buy a cheap set of magnetic towing lights (harbor freight, etc). Call you insurance man and tell him that you'll be towing it home, you'll probably find that your insurance automatically...

This was posted over on Expedition Portal: thought I would share what others have done to make thier 1101 and 1102 trailers more civilian friendly.The owner of a M1102 trailer cut the bows nd lowered them to Tow vehicle height and then had the local Canvas shop sew the lower edge of the cover...

Nice transformation. What did you do with your hitch?

Make one like this.

I like the M101A2 trailers better behind a 4 door jeep.

Nice work.

You want a narrowed A3 axle with raised center section. What about taking a narrower A2 axle and raising the center section inside the shock mounts like the A3 is? As for 8 bolt wheels earlier before 2014 GM wheels are the ones to use. The later dodge 8 bolt wheels have a deeper backspacing...
