M100 Military Trailer
I'm going to look at a M100 to pull behind my CJ7. The guys says the tires
and shocks will need to be replaced. Other than that it's in ok shape. No
major rust but there's a split at the front left and right corners. Also,
the front panel at the top rail is split.
He said it's been sitting for 5 years in storage.
Question is what things should I look out for when I look at this trailer?
Rust I know but what about axle rotation? Do these things freeze up? What
do they turn on, bearings?
He want's 250.00 for the trailer.
Thanks for any input,
Bill

Re: M100 Military Trailer
If that's what turn you on:
http://www.film.queensu.ca/CJ3B/Hubb...s/Bantam5.html
The bearing will have to be repacked before it goes anywhere other
than on another trailer, the rims should be the same size as your
Civilian Jeep.
Many times these things can be a nightmare trying to get a clear
tittle, like he may not even want to give you a bill of sale.

Re: M100 Military Trailer
Just found out the freakin guy sold it out from under me. :-(
I like the body style of the M416 better anyway (angled fenders over rounded
ones) so I'll keep looking.
Anyway, What's the consensus regarding pulling a trailer behind a jeep. I
have the image in my mind and thinking of using it for pulling camping gear
and supplies. Do CJ7s (I6, 258) pull trailers such as the M100 or M416
well?
thanks,
bill
