Gentlemen ,
Does anyone have a photo(s) of an M915A1 coupled to an M871 Flatbed trailer?
The reason I ask is I am trying to convince my wife on how bad I need an M871
to pull behind My M915A1 Tractor. So far she just says you don't need that! I was
in hopes a good photo(s) of the set up would possibly change her mind, then again I might just be pissing into the wind. Thanks!!!!

Here are a few pics of some trailers I picked up this week. I recommend you go with a M872.

I really like the look of your truck in picture 3 with the combat rims and super singles.

Any issues with getting under a trailer or stability on rough roads ?
Thanks, I think this is a good tire/wheel combination for the truck. Sometimes, I have to crank the trailer up a a few turns if it was previously hooked to a shorter tractor. Here are some comparison pics of super singles and stock tires.

Check with m1075 he has a couple trailers that are for sale !! He has both M871's and M872 trailers !! I am sure he can set you up !!! The M871 are much shorter then the M872 and there is a carrying capacity difference as well. I agree with M1075 the M872 looks much better on the M915 ,M916 or a M920 !!

I have several of the M871 and M872 trailers available for sale, but neither will work with the M916 or M920 without changing the fifth wheel to standard 2" size.

I hooked and pulled some commercial van trailers, both 48' & 53' around the yard, where I never had to worry about height. I'm sure it would be over 13'6"
