M172 Trailer?

[rumplecat]

From D.Doyle's book it is too long for a M172? The deck looks more like 20-30 feet than it does 16 feet! I have a friend checking to see if they will part with it. It would look great behind my M818!

Looks like a M269 12 ton wrecking trailer, goes behind the M246 tractor-wrecker.

Likely an M269 as NDT said. It's the same build style as my M270A1 just shorter.

I guess so but the bed is not built like my 270, it is more like a OTR trailer with two main beams.

That looks like a 80's version of the 269, the nomenclature changed to something with "10" in it, I cannot remember.

What kind of brakes ?

Brakes: probably air over hydraulic but some had MWO applied to convert to s cam straight air. At least on M127 12T which seem to use the same axle.
