I wasn't sure if this should go in the Trailers section, or expedition parts, but since they're trailer parts, they ended up here...
I am in the process of modifying my M101A3 3/4-ton military trailer to better suit my needs. I have pulled the following parts, which I no longer need. Photos of these items can be seen in my build thread (linked in my signature).
M101A3 3/4-ton military trailer axle with hydraulic & hand brakes: This is one heavy motha'!!! Raised center section for increased ground clearance. 8-lug bolt pattern with hydraulic drum brakes. $60 (may separate hand brake levers)
M101A3 tongue bracket/casting w/landing leg & jack: Unlike the M101A2s, the A3s had a landing leg with an integrated jack. It works great, but I redesigned my tongue area, and this didn't work with my design. $35 (*SOLD: shortbus4x4*)
M101A3 lunette & surge brake master cylinder: Worked great for my trip home from Kentucky (where I purchased the trailer) to Michigan. $25
I also bought some Firestone air bags & HD brackets (http://www.adventuretrailers.com/homebuilder.html) from Adventure Trailers, with the intentions of doing a fancy schmancy air bag suspension system on my trailer. I don't need to sell these, but came to the realization that it's overkill for my purposes, which will be 90%+ on-road use. Because the air bags were back-ordered for several weeks, I ended up getting upgraded with premium air bags (150 lbs. max pressure) rather than the standard ones (100 lbs. max pressure). The HD brackets, air bags, 90-degree fittings, schraeder valves, and air lines totaled over $300 + shipping. They are all new, and have never been installed. I'll sell it all for half that...$150 firm (*SOLD: shortbus4x4*) + shipping. NOTE: One premium air bag sells for more than that new.

Shipping will be from Cedar Springs, Michigan (zip 49319), which is just north of Grand Rapids. Of course, pick-up is also an option, especially for the large/heavy parts.
Thanks,
Craig
