they support the cover.......usually wood...but are available in metal.......
thanks...i just mounted the new license plate today.....
The bows are the supports that hold the tarp up.OK-not sure what you mean by bows?
the trailer is light enough to man handle, but a adjustable pintle plate and hitch are good and a high-lift also comes in handy. especially if youve got to change tires etc!!!Oh, I guess you weren't directing that at me.
Ok one more stupid question: Am I going to need a bulldog mounted on the receiver area/or a floor jack to raise and lower the pintle to hitch level?
FYI, most any 8 lug on 6 1/2 bolt pattern wheel will work. Your trailer does have an A3 axle which is stepped up in the center for ground clearance. Looks like standard A2 (or CUCV) rolling stock on there now. Bring a spare or two just in case. Empty you can move it around pretty easy. If you should stumble across an A3 bed with the fenders moved out, it will fit like a dream and gain you some much needed space between the inner fenders. Good looking trailer. Oh, its a pretty quick job should you need to repack the bearings for the ride home.
There must be a pile of those crank handles someplace, maybe on the side of the roaddrgreg, that is in fact a pure M101A3 trailer and a dang nice specimin at that! It's not too common that you get the crank handle with the trailer unless of course, you brought that with you!
