Part for M101A2 military dump trailer

[Hawk315]

Where can I get parts for a M101A2 military dump trailer, specifically the spring shackle tongue hitch?

Steel soldiers usually has parts for sale. A lot of people remove the stock trailer hitch with the momentum brake for weight savings. You might have heard it before, a 101 isn't a dump trailer. They fold for storage. Using it as a dump trailer wrecks the structure eventually.

It's a common misconception but these aren't dump trailers, as mentioned. It folds for storage, and so you can stuff more of them in a big honkin whatever for transport.

That is the part that people break trying to use these trailers as dump trailers. May end up being a hard part to find.....

Google that casting number. Take part(s) to a good fab shop and have them weld up a replacement.
