    I'll have to find my pics from where I did that but the rubber is designed to reduce shock load from the hitch and was updated to a spring pack on the m720 due to failures of the rubber

    The shelters that do connect have 2 pockets that stick out from the end at the bottom about 3-4' apart from each other that the shelter dolly feet go up into. Then they have a side plate with a threaded bolt hole on each corner about 2-3' up aiming towards the dolly.

    Also allot of the shelter dollies have a breakaway rubber hitch mount. You need to dispose of the rubber and weld the 2 pieces together without it. (I had one breakaway in a parking lot once)

    I think the m840 was modified for a larger shelter system, also the s280 shelter you posted does not have the shelter dolly feet or bolt brackets attached to it.

    also a good trick to a swaying dolly set is to tie the hitch (it has to be straight or it will hop) also dont chain because the straps allot it to flex just enough to raise up and down for going into parking lots etc I towed this m720 80 mph no problem with my 1/2 ton and before strapping it...

    only issue I had when I towed it home was I had to swing really wide for 1 and 2 I turned to sharp and broke the rubber off the hitch in a parking lot (didnt know a deuce could turn sharp enough to do this)

    also if you can back a 4 wheel farm wagon you can back these pretty easily I recommend power steering though for backing also I backed this one about 80ft into place next to the cones where I had marked it off to open it up

    I have a m720 and a M840 the holes on my m840 did not line up with my SPAM shelter when I towed it so I tied it on the dolly sets also broke the rubber part of the hitch on the way home turning in a parking lot welded the piece back on and got rid of the old rubber
