Nice video. Congrats on a beautiful army cargo trailer. I bought an M101A3 from Nellis AF base in NV years ago. It looked similar to yours but army green. With a tarpaulin top. 100% water proof. Took it camping all over the western US. Always got quite a few compliments everywhere I went. For electrical, you can change the bulbs to 12v-these are wired for 24v, so wires don’t need to be changed. You just need to make your own adapter. I had to part ways with it when I was selling my house and needed to de clutter 😢 for staging the house. Planning on another one. So nice to have something that is built to last through a war 😁. Mine had run flat tires (Kevlar with a metal ring allowing trailer to be towed, even if tires were punctured. Each tire prob cost more than what I paid for entire trailer. lol.
I put a Miller trail blazer and torch on a skid that I bolt in mine. I use an excavator and chain up to the d rings so I can get the trailer where my truck can’t. Main use is on pond spill pipes.

M116 and M101 use the same frame/axle etc. I have an M116A2, it has the flatbed on it instead of the M101 tub or walled bed. (I was looking specifically for a flatbed) And it was originally a generator trailer. I have an M416 (had two, traded one for an M1101) and two M762's as well. M762 is flatbed version of M416, same idea as M116/M101. Same frame, axle, wheels, etc. but a flatbed instead of a "tub" bed.

Thanks for all the info. Especially the bed measurements 👍

Cool stuff! Im trying to keep up on all your content releases. A lot of it I watched when it was new, but still some gems I haven't seen!
We've routinely hauled 2 1/2 tons on 3/4 ton pickups.
Thank goodness! I've missed you!

They pick them up in helo's, and parachute them off aircraft. Tie them down etc.
"And what not"
I hate that fucking phrase.........
Great vid though!
Military vehicles are COMBAT rated. If you're using it under NORMAL use, 2X military weight rating safely.
Did you sell the frame yet?
first job. . .sand blast & REpaint!! Nice trailer BTW!!
Whats the overall weight of it with the tub?
M101's are ~1,340lbs.
air bag it with 2500 bags
