elkay12: Your beach trailer got me motivated and I added an umbrella to my M101A2 camp version.

Looks like they used torsion axles due to the low deck height? Great information!

Christmas is coming, Ask Santa!

Many uses: propane tank delivery, cemetery work. You could work rescue and recovery for all of the OBESE Americans who fall off their mobility scooters! You could make a killing!

If elkay12 can have batteries I guess it is alright that I have propane. I am slowly making a camping trailer. The hard way. It will have a water tank, stove, hot water for a shower system, a roof top tent and other items for a weekend of camping.

My plates state 1350 pounds for my 1990 Ebensburg Pa. built M101A2 I removed the Pintle, brake system, racks, bows, and changed wheels and tires. She weighs 1080 pounds certified "Allegheny County weights and measures."

elkay12: Nice trailer, I like the wheels and tires. What do you use it for? Batteries and vent on the front of the tub.

That is a sick Unimog! Keep us up on the progress. More pictures.

I don't see why a axle over spring set up would not work. The only change would be to place the axle abobe the spring, My trailer has perches on the top and bottom. Place the shock mount under the spring and reuse the original shock. Preacher boy, what style of wheels are you looking for? Here...

I am leaning towards this build. I want a RTT but the cost with shipping and the price to build a rack, this one might be cheaper. I would make the top open with screen and use my new cover when it rains.

I have matching chrome 16" GMC rims with 235-85-16 hankooks. The rims are 6.5 wide and the tires measure out at 31" They are a street tread. There is 3" of space between the frame and sidewall of the tire 9" from the tread to the wheel lip, but the tire will stuff into the wheel well more...

That side hydraulic for the wing plow would make a great log splitter! Cool truck, There was a township truck like it for sale near ERIE Pa. it needed too much work! Keep the pictures coming!

Making bows and lashing it down. I have been kicking around some ideas for bows for the trailer and made some prototypes from pine. I cut a 3/4 x 1 7/8" x 69" piece that fits in the pocket recess well. It required a curf on the underside to drop flush with the trailer lip. I made 5 of these...
