CDN M101 in Vegas

As a Jeep owner, space is always at a premium. I picked up this 1992 CDN M101 3 years ago and have slowly and steadily been modifying and upgrading it. The previous owner swapped out the axle with a 5x4.5 lug pattern to match the Jeep and fabbed a hinged rack with the intention of mounting a RTT. I've added shocks (that were missing when I bought it), wired backup lights and installed new tires and a rear mounted spare. It has been more useful than I could have imagined and gets used for camping and hauling on a regular basis.

I'm in the Canadian Army and pulled one for years behind an Iltis. I've been trying to find one since we got rid of them but no luck so far. They're a good trailer.... We treated them like ******** and they never seemed to care.

:sombrero: Kewl, did you order the Kukenam ??

I've been thinking about that one for my trailer, I'd like to seeit on a light off-road trailer-

I've gotta "Airzone" tent now and would like some more room--

Can't wait to see your project develop !

Good luck

I'm thinking I won't have to. I've seen a few pics of them mounted on trailers and the telescoping ladder seems to be the perfect setup due to the lower height.

:sombrero: Yeah, that sounds about right, you just gotta make sure your RTT base/trailer will support at least-500lbs and also not bounce when you (?) turn over-:Wow1:

I think I need a bigger truck!
Nice find man, great little trailers. I looked for 2 years nearly before I found one, and thankfully after apparently being totally abused by the Canadian Military, it was still in great shape!! lol (Kidding some_dude, thanks for your service)! :)

Looking forward to seeing this with the tent mounted.

They do fit well don't they? I scooped 2 from Wal Mart here on the weekend... very much like these.
