Which one is it? M101, or M105?

[magnetic111]

Hey guys. I've just gotten the bug to build my own camping trailer using the M101. I'm looking at GL to see if I can pick up something relatively locally. Instead I've come across a new bed assembly in the crate that I was considering bidding on and having shipped to me in Oregon. (At that point I can just have the frame built with the proper tongue and hitch and with axles using the same pattern as my 100 series LC) The question is this, which bed am I looking at here? They have it listed as 1.5 tons, which would make it an M105. But it looks like and seems to be similar in dimension to the M101. (110"L x 74"W x 18"H (or 25"H depending on where you look in the ad)) They also say it's 1300 lbs (crate and all?) I'm now thinking it's a 105 box. Can you guys confirm that? I appreciate the help, thanks!

It sure looks like a M101A3 ..I have M101A2 and A3 trailers, the A3 boxes have the body bolsters inside the bed. There definitely are pics of two different boxes, the solid green is the M101A3 and the camo has the M105A2 data plate. GL has messed up and inserted pics from 2 different boxes for a one lot sale, beware!

Green is a M101A2 bed...fenders don't stick out far enough to be a A3.
Bed in crate is probably a 105.

Yup, your right on the A2 I just went out and looked at mine.

That's great guys. Thanks for the help!!

I think it's the M105 in the auction, but with that one wrong M101 photo. I'll just wait until I can find something closer.

Any leads on an A1, or A2 in the Pacific Northwest? I found one on CL for $850, but it's beater.

Thanks again guys!

I know someone in the Redmond, WA area who has 2 (and maybe getting one more) that wants to reduce his inventory to just 1.

PM me and I'll give you his contact information.

Is there some reason, being a newbie perhaps, that I can't send a PM? I've tried twice, but I don't think it's going through. Can you pm me, and I'll respond back? Thanks!
