How long is a 870 trailer

For a better experience, please enable JavaScript in your browser before proceeding. What trailer is this? Thread starter pistonring Start date Jan 7, Can anybody ID the trailer in the first two pictures that is hooked to the M tractor? This looks like a lighter trailer than the Ma1 as in recent threads and also in the third picture.

The museum has an excellent collection of the kind of green trucks that we dream about at night. Please look at the first picture of the awesome CCKW with attached half inch gun. CCKW's have 20 inch tires. The trailer has The Ma1 has 15" tires. Also compare the lighter neck area and lighter side beam and lighter swing out extensions for the overwidth boards. The neck lays down on this trailer.

Note the big square holes in the neck and sides. Also there looks to be more D ring tie down points than an I can't tell if this is a tri axle or tandem. How does the neck lay down? Or is it hydraulic run from a wet line? Also how long is this trailer? What is it? I know from seeing this much that i need one really bad to drag around with the M in my avatar at left.

I can see possibilities of future posts of the big project of "How I mounted a rear winch and roller on the back of my M" So many projects Such a short life I see a "m" on the right front area of the trailer deck, but do not see any trailers in the "m list" with a after the M. Or is this really an M trailer before they came out with the ma1????? All that I know is that I am almost guaranteed to be able to sleep better at night if one of these trailers is sitting out here in the motor pool ready to be hooked to the M OK, who wants to be the first one to ID it?

My next question is surely to be "Where can I find such a trailer? Trailer under cckw appears to be a commercial trailer not a m has disc wheels with M is laid down with winch on rear of tractor or if no winch, a forklift on site. My unit had one adopted from m king pin to use trailer with m instead of m It's not commerical.

It's definitely a Marine trailer. Look at the hemtt thread. We also use a smaller pintle hitch trailer to go behind our 7 tons to haul the rubber tire backho around and other equipment.

I will find the nomeclature on the two trailers tomorrow. That IS an M trailer. The and A1 are a folding low boy. The MA3 is a detachable gooseneck, Both have a 40 Ton capacity.
