So I went for a visit to Devilman96s shop. He is working on an M101 he obtained a few years back. Apparently he has learned that with his Oh-9 you need a trailer for truck duties. He has already cut the welds and removed th fender wells. Each will be reinstalled 4" farther out giving him 53" between the inner fenders. The axle is being swapped out for one with the same 6 lug pattern as the truck and the trailer will have the exact same wheel and tire. A steel topper with side doors is being installed and will have its own jack system for easy, one man, removal anywhere. An integrated transfer tank and spare mount is also in the plans. Sounds to be a really neat project.

Did you forget the camera?? Man, what a tease.

Phil2968,
I have to do a double take everytime I catch you avatar on the second frame... That sure could be mistaken for something dirty. :shock:
