What Trailer for my M?

[w30bob]

Hi Guys,

I'm not that familiar with military designations in general and know nothing about military trailers. If I wanted to get a trailer for my M37 from the 1952 time period what model should I be looking for?

thanks,
bob

Hi Bob,

You might want to look for a M101 Trailer. It is a 3/4 ton trailer and matches the M37 well. You could also look for a WWII Ben-Hur trailer but those are more scarce and not as much cargo capacity as the M101. There are a number of M101 trailers that are surplus right now.

The M101 trailer was designed for use with the M37 and uses the same tire and wheel so it's a good match.

The M101 for the 50 to 53 period would be a perfect match but are hard to find. The M101A1 from about 54 and up to about 68 would work just as good and from there on you must be careful which M101XX series you pick as the wheel and tire and the brake system changes.
