Military M1101 M-1101Overland trailer build final revisions and last update.

In this video, I show the final M-1101trailer build. I made several changes to the sleeping arrangement after 2 miserable trips out. I also lowered the trailer 2.5 inches. The final change was to the electrical system.

Wow you have given me a ton of good ideas. Thanks

[@theapex1120]

Incredible! Congratulations.

[@Kingsize24]

Good job! We love ours as well.

Awesome build you gave me a lot of great ideas 😊I’m thinking about making a similar set up but with a roof that goes up and down so that you can stand in it when you get to where you’re going using electronic actuators similar to slide in camper jacks but have them go vertical and lift the entire roof up

Thank you so much for these videos. I just bought my 1101 last month and it's going to be a summer project, which means probably a couple years really lol.
It's a 2010 silver eagle, bone stock in perfect shape. I'll definitely be watching these over and over. Thanks again and any advice is appreciated

Depending on what you are pulling it with, i found that lowering it made it better to tow with my Jeep. Other than that, its a blank canvas!

Hey buddy, I just brought home my 1102 today! I need to get away from the 16.5 rim/37 tires and go to a 17 rim/35 tire to match my Bronco better. Where/how did you find those wheels? Love your build by the way!

[@chrisunderhill8853]

not sure if you get any messages from old videos, i was wondering what rims you used are they chevy 8 bolt? any idea what year truck they were from? thanks in advanced.

[@44mechanic]

Yes, chevy 8 lug. They were on it when i boight it.

[@sneakybow1]

Basically any 8 lug on 6.5 from Ford, Dodge, or Chevy from the 80s up until the 2010ish time frame. Backspacing is what you need to pay attention to, unless you don't mind your tires sitting out past your fender line. CUCV wheels tuck under there nicely.

[@RW-ze6su]

Is there a reason you don't install the A/C permanently above the tire?

[@44mechanic]

No reason. But i just dont take it with me in winter months.

What does this weigh? Buddy has a standard transmission jeep, no sh!t, I really am asking for a friend.

[@44mechanic]

I am guestimating around 2200lbs...
