The bosses modified M105A2

[INTREPER]

The boss went out and got himself a 2000 AMG H1 a while back, so I decided he needed a matching trailer for it as we like to ride dirt bikes and ATV's. Found a local M105A2 through Government Liquidations and we got right to work on it.

- We started by block sanding it down
- Removing a set of leaf springs (the heavy duty set)
- Removed the air brake system
- Painted it to match the Hummer
- Found a nice Beachwood Canvas to go with it
- Changed the wiring a little bit to work with 12V
- Rhino lined the inside of the bed
- and finished it off with a custom axle to mount matching Hummer wheels

What do you guys think?

2 years later, and I still haven't registered it with the DMV
Wooops!

I think that looks sweet! Matches the H1 very well.

I like the dark green paint. What color is it?

I'm jealous of the driveway and hate the manicured landscaping. My driveway now is RCA. It’s strong but not pretty. I'm saving up for those concrete steel reinforced waffle pavers. They are cool because you don't have to worry about drainage and it looks like a lawn from a distance. You also don't have to worry about staining it like a solid conc. Driveway or pebbles/gravel all over the place after the snow melts. It will take H-20 loads. Here's some pics.

Welcome to the site and hope you are a frequent visitor to the site with so much information. Really like the look of trailer with the HMMWV it looks so strange since my M105 is stock I did a little different mod to mine to make it tow behind a truck, I lowered the hitch by welding on a brace that lowered and put it out forward a little there is a picture of it in my album on the site.

Why no end curtains? I'm not going to comment on the H1 other than it reminds me of a certain M35 that is also from Kalifornia.

The trailer looks good. The Hummer H-1 looks gay. Only real HMMWV has a .50cal on top of it, and a sandpaper-rough paint job.

 

[ARMYMAN30YearsPlus]

Hey at least it is an H1 not a 2 or 3 wanna be's Plus I would not mind living in a place like that with a truck like that just way beyond my means.

No.2diesel - that is a neat paver/brick, what ever you want to call it. I would go that way too if I had to worry about snow. Thanks for the compliments

ARMYMAN30YearsPlus - All I did was flip the tongue, and vuala, perfect fit. Of course, getting rid of the HD leaf springs helped lower it a good ammount too. Thanks for the welcome.

Elwenil - The top flaps around a bit when being towed. I found that by removing the end curtains it doesn't do it as bad. Plus, it's not like we have anything to hide. Funny you bring up an M35. I got the idea for the stars from one. Might even be the same one you speak of.

Maddoawg308 - The civilian H1 shares just about everything with the HMMWV. So it has an automatic and a 12v system, BIG DEAL! Same truck with a few creature comforts. And just because its shinny, it doesn't mean we don't use it for what it's meant to do. You should see the paint up close.

Intreper don't take personally on the jabs on the H1. If it was not for the H2 and H3 abominations and indirectly what they did to Wrangler when they H3ed it many would love the H1 more. Sure the H1 is kind of ugly. It also is built heavy duty, and like you say is mostly military dressed up. I personally like them.

There are very few vehicles on this site that have anything close to a gloss paint job too.

Personally I really like the look of what's been done. I love the look of the H1...looks very sharp to me. The trailer job looks excellent as well. Some leave things orig...some modify a lil and then some modify the devilman outa them but anyway, I love the look and would be happy to drive it for ya!

Excellent work!

I don't care for the stars, but like the rest. Would like to see the wheels the same color as the body (or black)
