Welcome to the military trailer club. It was a coupe of years ago and I went the same thoughts. My experiences recommend: Replace dry rotted tires. Don't wait until you have a blowout. I now carry a spare. Inspect and repack your hubs! Replace races and bearings as needed. You can replace...

Agree, Tested my NDTs with 1400 miles of Interstate towing this summer. No problems.

It's a 101a3.

Nice welder! Please post photos of finished product.

Mine is a bolt on so I can easily go back to a surge.

Sorry to hear about the welding problem, but been there with that issue myself. Got a Hobart 140 a few mos ago and its great for tacking things together and small jobs. With my hitch tacked together I found a reasonable fellow($40) with a big welder for the hitch welds. We have no worries about...

Thanks

Very very nice.

This thread has been very helpful to me and here are my two solutions to the the trailer plug problem: The 1st was my M416 with a newer wiring harness. I bought a receptacle and soldered in a 4 way plug. Its heavy for the 4 way plug but with a small velcro strap it works fine. Cost was about...

Nice score and a great looking M416.

Thanks for posting. It helps in my plan is to do this trip to Hood or Hooks for a 101a2 myself.
