Score, got a m416

[daninghram]

I bought a 1967 m416 this last weekend. Seems to be in good shape rustwise.
Pulled the tub off yesterday. pictures to come.:wings: Do ford rims 5 on 5 bolt on? Anyone know where to get a spare?

I do believe the 416's have 5 on 5.5" lug patterns. Good luck on the resto. Also check out the M416 yahoo group as it has a pretty good photogallery of members trailers and some ideas.

my m416 has 5 on 5.5 pattern. Perfect if you have a CJ like I do. Good luck

Or a Bronco, like I do, I just have to save the money for a trailer.

Looking forward to seeing your pics.

Nice to see another member on here with the greatest last name in the world, though I'm confused why you're throwing around that superfluous 'h'...

Pictures of the tub. I'am extending the hitch 14 inches.

This is what got done over the weekend. Pulled the hitch out 14 inches and next is a 16 inch platform for the front. I will have the hitch hooked all the way back to where it was hooked from the factory with bolts and welded where needed. Should be good and strong and safe when I get done.​

I love the looks of those little trailers. aint never seent one in person though.

 

[daninghram]

done a lot will try to get some new pictures.

Here is my hitch extenion. It is bumped out about 14 inches, and still hooks to the original spot. I painted the tub and cut in a tailgate. I wanted the color to be like the matt gray they use on ICON builds but this is the closest I could find.

One more with one side done. before I did the otherside.
I have the metal for a lid all bent but need to make a frame under it and put ends on it.
Hopefully it is correct:Wow1:

Tailgate looks good, I like the straight cut.
Looks better than the version with ears to match the tub.
