M105 A2 old military trailer $$$

[Sircode13]

Get an m416, that trailer is big.

I'm okay with big lol, and the M105 A2 is hardly pushing the towing capacity of the H1. I was looking at getting a double axle one. This M105 A2 looks pretty nice though and if Panzer and I can get a super deal on them I'm all for it. Found a couple of pintle hitches near me that look reasonable enough.

Thanks Panzer, I almost got an H2 when they were introduced in "2002" cause I didn't think I could afford an H1, but I decided to sell my pest control business on the advice of my doctor after having some issues and that provided the cash. I'll have to check out those Pintle hitches at O'Reilly, If their new. I found two used ones, one down near San Diego and another in Hesperia and they were $50.

Oh my bad it wasn't oreally it was pepboys, but I'm sure any auto part store would have them, they only offer the fixed pintles, meaning they don't twist, which for what I research yesterday are fine for on road and highway use but they don't recommend them for off-road use since you run risks of flipping your trailer. Anyways I almost did too got myself an H1 instead of my H3 after coming back from deployment, the H has always been my dream car since I can remember. Anyways long story short I decided to drop that cash into a house downpayment an mortgage that's way I had a place where to sleep as well a mid/long-term investment, and this way later on I could sell or refinance my house and then use that money for an H1, and so because of this I settle for my H3 which hasn't disappoint me at all. And I didn't really like the H2 since they are a little too fat IMO as well they were out of my price range, however I do like all the luxury and comforts those H2 offer lol...

I'll have to check and make sure that the other pintles I've been looking at twist. I also had wanted an H1 since I first saw them offered in "1992". That's one reason my wife approved of the Tenth Anniversary Edition I got. I like all of the Hummers cause I have seen they are all very capable off road. I got lucky and purchased a house in "1986" and doubled my money on it so that helped a lot. lol However right now I'm without a house after selling it Two years ago and getting ambulanced into the hospital during the closing on it. I'm in the process of preparing to build on 40 acres I purchased in Utah.

Sorry to hear about the last part...but looking at a from positive perspective, you do still have a house, the Hummer's tummy, make some nice 5 star sleeping quarters, that I know. Anyways a least you got yourself some land now, and a lot at that...not to mention you'll be in the state with one of the trails in my life-spam bucket list "Moab trails".
And I agree all of them are undead pretty damn capable. I haven't seen the guys today yet so I still have no news.

I have better than that, I put a roof top tent on top of it a couple of years ago. So worse case scenario I can live in that till the homestead gets built. Not sure how my Wife like the camping life though, she's use to the resort life. lol
She's pretty spoiled for someone who grew up in Hong Kong. Just let me know when you get a chance to talk to the trailer guy, no rush.

Just saw this, good choice in looking at a 101 instead. I have a m116a3 (101 but flat bed version) and its perfect behind my alpha T. Plus it only weighs 800 pounds versus 105 2600 pounds! Wiring is super easy converted mine in 10 min.

Here is a normal m116

Here is the one i modified for haul rock and crap.

Oh a 105 is air over hydraulic brakes. So your poked if you want brakes unless you do some air brake setup through your truck.

Yeah that another reason why I opted out from the 105, all that weight would really wear on my breaks and other components...thank you for your info dude. :thumbs:
