The pioneers are cool!
I always wanted one to make a camping trailer.
canvas and screen for the lift up sides.
a canvas room extension for the rear.
The Local search and rescue uses one. for field work.
Great Find!
Soyou went with an axle that matches the toyota bolt pattern so you don't need to carry a seperate spare? I lucked out with my trailer being an 8 bolt with GM bolt pattern.
Electric brakes too?
Looks great!
Even just a frame and it looks good!
Scrap thieves are usually junkies and want a quick fix.
real thieves would have stolen the whole trailer and reworked it in another state.
If you have a public stoning let me know, I would like to come!
If criminals had a consequence, they would only be caught once!
8 on 6.5 bolt pattern
Most after market wheels are lug centric
original GM wheels are hub centric.
With 8 studs it should not matter.
Just order the wheels to fit a 99-11 GM 3/4 truck and you should be fine!
I run matching factory GMC wheels on my M101A2.

Awesome Fab skills. What method of cutting do you use?
We have a laser at work that gives that clean of a cut.
I like the adjustable hitch channel, I did the same on my M101A2 and use a 2" ball or 3" lunette to tow.
How does it tow behind the Dodge?
A very Nice job!
I fabed my Pintle / Ball combo mount from 1/2" plate cut to the same size as the mounting base on the cast pintle. Then welded it to a piece of 2" heavy wall tube.
It has worked well for me.
All Older Gm, Ford, Dodge, all were 8 on 6.5 the hub hole is bigger on the Ford and Dodge.
Your 16.5 tires will work, "NO SAFETY BEAD 0n 16.5 rims"
