Trailer bridge plate markings

[maverick]

Hi Guys,
Hope someone can help and sorry if this has been covered before (couldn't find any old posts )

I would like to know would my M332 Ammo trailer have the yellow 6 inch circle applied on the side for bridge weight classification? If it should have this what number should be marked on it ?

Many thanks

Not sure on what number a ammo trailer would have but I would say yes to it having a weight marking on it. My M105 trailer had one on it from the Army.

Vehicle marking are covered in TB 43-0147
h. A vehicle weight classification sign kit, as described herein, will be installed on the front of each vehicle except:
(1) All trailers.
Each base would/could have their own rules based on need. Wayne

For the M101 trailer, thy number is 2.

I always thought the "C" was to be used on the tow vehicle, to combine the truck and trailer weight.

Thanks for the quick reply's. So are we going for yes it does have one and its a number 3 or no its not correct ?

Verily I say unto thee, check David Doyle's Standard Catalog of Military Vehiles for the weight of the Ammo trailer, it's in the appendix for bridge markings, and yes, it does get a stencilled circle and number on the right corner of the body, front end right side. On the M105A2 in woodland camo, its a 6" diameter black circular outine with a "4" in the middle, at least that's what my M105 had when it came from the combat engineer unit in Okmulgee, OK.
