Front springs

Post by rixm37 »

I want to know if the M101 springs are the same as the front springs on the truck. I heard they were but can't confirm it. What do you think ?

I have a 52 CDN M101 trailer and the springs are no where near as heavy as the M37's. The trailers are only 5 leafs but are a lot thinner and thus don't have the load capacity.. They are also shorter in length. Terry

Sal : the M101 I have is a canadian made trailer from 1952. They made a bunch up here for our army boys to use and they are the match to the M37 at 3/4 ton rating. Terry
