I run 235-85-16 hankooks that I ran on my truck 2500HD crewcab.
They were worn but still worked for the trailer and no need to carry a spare.
keep us posted on the build.
Many guys on the Expo run wheel adapters without issues.
Bolt them on tight with thread locker and you willbe fine.
Nice size behind your toyota.
Great ideas here:

Love the M101A2 trailers, I bought one cheap and rebuilt it with personal touches, Hauling, camping, cook outs and trips to the beach. They make great little trailers.

More workon the trailer between all the rain we have been having.
still need to finish the wire brushing of the rust and loose paint.
I removed the fenders for better painting and I will be trying a red urban camo patern
on the two fenders. Red, White, Grey and Black.
Many new items from...
I would mount two brackets like "FOOTMAN LOOPS" on the trailer frame
then fab the ladder to drop into them. That will keep it from sliding when someone is on it.
Beautiful work on your trailer.

More work on the trailer.
I stripped off every un used item from the trailer including bolts and screws.
Brakes are off and sold, new coupler mount added, new tires and wheels are on the way
Metal prep to follow then paint.
It is lighter now and will make a great addition to my motor pool...
The surge lunette is on it's way to Alaska.
Here is the new hitch system. The surge lunette weighed 50 pounds.
The tongue seems so light now. With the channel I can use a lunette or 2" ball mount.
I used the original landing leg but cut 3" off the back of the V mount behind the mounting bolts.
I just bought a M116a2 in Fredricksburg, The guy that sold it to me buys trailers all the time.
he has several 1102 on the bay for sale. Check with him for a 101A2.
The trip to the scrap yard with the trailer parts gave me $105.00 off the cost of the trailer.
I listed all the other items removed in the classified section.
I think this is the look I am shooting for.
