Ah....ok good. Not good but good.....

Looks like we bought from the same batch of trailers. Same Unit Amazing trailers for sure. I love the surge brakes. Restored brake systems on both of my M101A2’s.

Carry a spare game camera with you. Setup where it can see whole truck. It won’t prevent a break-in, but at least you will have a picture or video of who did it and what their driving. Could have been worse. They coukd have stolen the truck itself.

Ether needs an ignition source. Cold glow plugs and cylinder compression alone will not ignite it. I wouldn’t use it, but especially not a separate shot in each cylinder. That probably would have destroyed your engine if it did light off. Just a short shot in the air intake opening if you...

Received PM and replied. Items not needed. Forgot I already have a spare assembly.

What are you doing for brakes? Are you keeping those parts or?? I’m interested in them if you don’t need them.

I saw those listed. Quite a few were sold. Couldn’t understand why they needed a EUC. The ones I saw listed required it. The 105 is a big trailer. Using thicker steel definitely made a difference in strength and also weight. The M101A2/3 is the best trailer the Military used.

There are quite a few old threads about this issue and a few that are very detailed. I would definitely start reading. It’s very common for CTIS issues to crop up. I chased issues and troubleshooted what seemed like forever. Lots of new expensive CTIS parts and still not 100%. Now I’ve...

GP 10% Auction premiums vs GL 12.5%. I doubt it’s pure profit but it adds up.

You don’t like the color Red? You can see the camo pattern again.

Definitely quite a project. Not sure I would use the word “fun”! Cool.....yes Fun......no

Smart guy driving the Impala I see. The owners thought process about terrain wasn’t working very well. Hopefully he was grateful you saved the day.

When loaded on ship or train, the loaders tend to bend the mounts. Fronts mostly. My M1008A1 made the trip to the sandbox and back. Front mounts were chained too tight at some point and slightly bent inward. Gives it character since it was done in war service. No idea about the side...

Washed it. Plus put bows and cargo cover back on. It’s been off quite a while and truck was very dusty from county dirt roads. No mud, just dust.

Occasionally you can see one here and there in the background of the GP auction pics. Someday they will be auctioned off, or scrapped.

I would do that in a second Thought it would be more than that. About same price for new aftermarket wheels I’m guessing. Freshly refurbished factory wheels would look great.

Remember, DOT will always only go by what’s on the data plate. No matter what is done to lighten it, the original weight ratings are what is used. A M101A2/3 would be a much better fit and look a lot better behind your Xterra. A trailer compatible with your vehicle and with brakes. It’s a...

Welcome to Steel Soliders Grounds will effect some lights and not others. I assume that you checked all the wiring underneath before hooking anything up. Most of these trailers had a hard life in service and were not that well maintained. I would physically refresh every ground you can...

A can of flat black spray paint will work wonders on those wheels.
