The 1101 and 1102 are designed to match your HMMWV and use the same tires and wheels. And on an 1101, the GVW is under the requirement for brakes on the single axle, even though they have them.

Power washed both trailers today.
Amazing how nasty they can get just sitting under trees.

Bought new 5k swivel jacks (Butler Jack) for them also.
Will weld the bases on this weekend.
My lower back will definitely be happier.

I bought it at Atwood's. A local farm and ranch supply chain.
Their called Black Jack. Made by Butler Jacks (same company who makes the tongue jacks for the M1101/2).

I don't own a M105 trailer so I can't answer that.
Sure you can weld it on, but that's a big trailer.
Look at their website. They will have a jack that would work.

You're not kidding. It's the Second Law of Thermodynamics I guess, Entropy (EVERYTHING tends eventually toward "dirt").

Right? I learned that somewhere a long time ago. Any physicists here?!

That's one reason I wish I had the luxury of a garage or a shed of some kind (for parking). But that's not my luck, so all I get is just plain "nasty" regular, instead. :shrugs::roll:

Finally getting around to painting the last wall and frame of my trailer. Anyone else got one of these?

We got one for the Boy Scouts. Originally used for medical equipment, then armories and other specialized purpose. Mostly USN and USMC. I think they have all surplussed out. Interesting as it had electric brakes and civilian lights and a 7 pole wiring harness.

Many variations on side panel doors. Ours were solid sides.
