Look what I found in my M101.

[rfischba1]

I just got home with a new buy at GL Fort Meade, and to my surprise look what was inside.

 

[rfischba1]

Anyone have an idea what these came off or were uses for, found them in a trailer I picked up at GL today.

Some people get all the good stuff.

Looks like you got some extra rails, plus a padded litter too. Handy for those emergency evacs...

But I could be wrong too...

 

[MWMULES]

Yep they are seat backs and rear door fillers from the first series of HMMWV
The other stuff are extra gates for above the tail gate on the trailer.

 

[blacktop_one]

The item in pic #3 looks like the door filler panel they use on Hummers when an ambulance or other service body is attached. Just a wild guess, though.

How do they not look in the backs of trailers before those things get auctioned off? Or do they really not care? More stuff to hafta figure out what to do with?

Oh, they looked in the back of the trailer - and they saw more junk they didn't need. If it ends up in the DRMO yard, the people there have to assume it's excess. They may check to see if any controlled items are back there (like ammo, weapon mounts, sensitive gear, etc.), but if not, out it goes.

 

[Mike O.]

Mine was filled with oilsorb rags and junk.

 

[mcmullag]

cool! antenna mount too and I see wooden stakes leaning against the right fender well, used for driving through the hearts of vampires and zombies or maybe just for holding tents in place.

 

[Tinwoodsman]

Mine was completely full of nothing.

 

[Billy Bobbed]

 

[hwcurtice]

Mine was filled with air...

And someone's old Starbucks cold cup....

Oh, and one extra rubber wheel chock. I'm guessing to replace the wooden one.

I was hoping they would have misplaced a set of bows and cover in there, but no such luck....

I bought a 105 from Rock Island and both tool boxes had rusty hinges.. So with great effort and lots of WD40 I opened the frist one and nothing.. With alot more WD40 and more effort I opened the second and ........ it was filled.... with about five gallons of motor oil. What a mess, and a big let down.

my freebies

my 101 had 2 - 5 gal. Igloo water coolers in good shape, a 5 gal. water Jerry can, + a full bottle of hand sanitizer. It also had brand spanking new tires on it. The tires themselves are probably worth as much as I paid for the trailer!

 

[tigger]

I may be an odd ball here but if you go to pick up a trailer you just bought wouldent you look in the back of it when you picked it up.

 

[rumplecat]

I asked the GSA guy in Mississippi what was up with the deuce troop seats and assorted stuff in the back of the 813 I won, he said he thought one of us could use it and he doesn't have to fill up his only dumpster with it.

 

[3dAngus]

If my trailer had all that nice stuff in it, I would have returned it to the rightful owner.
I would keep the junk.
Ho ho ho......

 

[roscoe]

I got one with a rotten wooden trunk thrown in it. One had a flat NDC tire and a chunk of concrete. One had a dead cat carcass. And one had ...... nothing.

 

[tonidial]

That's where I left it...

..... One had a dead cat carcass. .

So that's where I left the cat!

 

[hdexpert]

I had a BUNCH of stuff in the bed of my 105, enough to pay for it!! Here's the thread-
