Just picked up a M200A1 trailer today and wondering what people have done with them. Water tank, flatbed, camper conversion? Anyone have any pictures what they have done?

Tows really nice, even towed it short distances without the tongue extension, behind the pickup
handled it really well but don’t want to make a habit of it with the pickup not being able to activate the brakes.

Airbornebandsman built that one for himself, but passed it on to me when he bought a tractor. He did a very good job of it, well thought out and executed. There is a thread of his build on SS somewhere.
I use it to shunt trailers around, or I can haul the M146 with the M813 (which combination I don't seem to have ever taken a picture of).
A stranger combination was using it to haul the Humvee 5th-wheel shelter-carrier when we were moving out to the new property last year.
Now that the shelter is on there, I suppose I could use it to haul the shelter behind a deuce or 5-ton, though it would certainly look odd!

Is your tounge extension something you built or is it available as a kit?

Sorry I missed this question way back when. The wheels and tires are Sand Trails off of a Husky with adapter plates.

I don't have any pictures but one of mine has been turned into a portable, outdoor workout center. New owner mounted gym equipment and accessories to take with him.
Another was used as the base for a portable climbing wall.
Farmers and construction crews have turned them into fuel tankers, water haulers, fertilizer haulers, etc...
One was used to mount a home built, massive log splitter/ fence rail machine.

Here are a few pics of the tongue extension
.
It’s removable, and can be extended 38” if necessary.
The lunette is also on a receiver so it can easily be swapped out for my ball hitch if needed.
My trailer came from @kblazer87 as well!
