For the pass few years been looking for a 'nice' World War II military Bantam T3 to use for carrying camping gear. Nice ones command a premium price and are restored to military specs. It'd be a shame to hack-up one of those, so instead I purchased a reproduction tub and frame. Spent the last few weeks researching and purchasing parts and converting the tongue and coupler.
The weld-on 50 degree 2" receiver type A-frame bracket was purchased from Adventure Trailer and cut down to match the geometry of the T3. The two tongue rails bolt to the T3 frame using the same holes and hardware as the original.
