    Just won a trailer on auction and I have no idea what this thing is. It uses the m101a2 coupler, axle and springs. Otherwise it looks like some kind of generator trailer.

    Taillight mounting holes stripped out???

    M1031 vs M887 welders

    Just thinking about the differences between the two trucks and was wondering about the pros vs cons of the different welders. Anyone on here operated both? As far as trucks go I'd rather have the cucv. But what welder system would you rather have?

    M101 Hydraulic Brake Resistance?

    Pickup requirements?

    Won a 101 over at Camp Lejuene and I need to prepare to pick it up. The website mentions registration paperwork for towed trailers, does this apply to trailers I bring in to haul out items? Or is there something I need to do before hand so that I can tow it offsite? From GL: Secuity...
