Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
Very nice work there!Yep, I've gone & done the unthinkable: I installed dual 11.00x20 tires on my M105A2 trailer, and built metal fenders over them. I used a mix of leftover & scrap steel for the framework, along with some 16-gauge sheet steel for the flat panels. Everything is welded in place, so it's a permanent modification.
The mudguards/splashguards are cut-down Deuce items, but as the metal retainer strips that bolt over the rubber mudflaps were rusted into oblivion, I had to make my own...they work quite well.
I call it my M105A2E2 (assuming M105A2E1 would be with 9.00x20 tires, mine uses 11.00x20 tires). It sits level with my Deuce pintle hitch, and my Deuce rides on 395s.
