So Ive noticed a few of these trailers have the tie down clevices and brackets on the back. Mine didnt when I got it. But I wanted them back there. So I had some made and welded em on where they should go. Not long after I did, I figured out why it didnt have them. When the tailgate is opened...

Im looking for something decent looking and somewhat period correct for storing the registration on my 52 M101. This way the registration is with the trailer and not in my truck when I loan it out or whatever. I keep seeing those clear plastic bubble lookin things and I'm not crazy about em...

I checked the simiar thread listing, and I noticed its been said before to just get new data plates instead of trying to repaint older ones. Mine is still legible, but its got some serious what looks and seems like hard water, or calcium on it. The problem is, no one has just plain M101 plates...

Did 50's era trailers have side clearance marker lights? Ive been thinking of whether I wanna put the typical truck trailer side markers on or not. I dont think it would be original, but whatta ya all think?? Guess it also depends on if I can get the buld for em in 6volt, or someday convert the...

I have mounted the spare tire carrier Chris Case made for me mentioned in another thread. But now my M101 wont dump. I can tilt it by hand without the tire, brakes locked or not. But as soon as the tire is on, it wont tilt, brakes locked. I know a Budd rim and NDT are heavy, but is it enough...
