WANTED M101A1 Trailer Gate Hinge Pins

Post by 52 M-42 »

Does anyone have, or know where I might find, any correct diameter M101A1 Trailer Gate Hinge Pins? I have some pins in my trailer gate hinges now, but they are very loose and the gate sags and rattles. I suspect that the pins I have are not correct (they just might have been lost or replaced in the last 50 years since the trailer was new).

Worst case, I could make some if I knew the correct dimensions and profile of the pins.

Thanks in advance for any help!

I ended getting mine from Niagra Military parts. I want to say it was about $30 for the set.

Thanks, David!

I'll try them today.

Never heard of them before. Are they new?

He advertises in MV magazine and has been around a while. He advertises he has alot of "M101 NOS parts" but I had called him for several items ( electrical box cover, shocks, power cord) during my resto and the pins were all he could supply at the time. Good luck :)
