From what is visible can the frame be identified? Has mb springs on her, solid axle, thick lunette, m38 wheels, 1951 military tires, thats all i know, that stuff is easially changable though, may pull the spring mount off. frame may probably be scrap anyway, will part out axle and front end parts shortly.

Re: Trailer frame identification
I think you can measure the width of the frame to determine if it's an MBT/M100 or M416 as the later trailer was wider.

Re: Trailer frame identification
Looks like an M416 frame to me. That is if what I'm seeing in a bolt hole on the outside of the frame where the tub bolts on.

Re: Trailer frame identification
That makes id easy, think it is the bigger hole, thats for the switch for lights I think. Draw bar is C shaped, but thats replaceable.
