Well, here is my trailer; I guess it got removed from the other poster.

Wow, I love that trailer.... what is the NSN, part number, how much did it cost you?, did you refinish it? etc...

The line of the trailer looks like a match to the H3. The recovery loop makes it even better with the design line...
Nice choice

I pull my kayaks on a modified jet ski trailer, virtually no weight at all.




I want to get one of these:

Sorry, I haven't responded quickly.

They are around in different locations. This one was in Un-issued condition and was $1350. Others can be bought cheaper, but might need some more work to bring back to the Original appearance.
I had some small surface rust corrected, mounted the Fuel/Water can backets, and had the entire piece painted back to the OEM color. Then through the OEM contractors, I was able to get replacement parts and the reflective stickers for the body. I also replaced the tires with USGI Non Directional Tread.
It is Canadian. M101 CDN2, 1/4 Ton trailer.

There is a yahoo group for the trailer with lots of info. Also some possible areas that they may be found. Most are still in Canada, but can be found in the US as well.

They were made as a modified heavier duty version of the USGI M416 trailer, for the Jeep. The Candian M101's are for the VW Iltis.
It really does go well with the H3.

Pulls a 3,500 pound Airstream pretty well.

That AirStream, looks great!
How is it to camp in?

It's o.k. I mean it's nice to have a base of operations at the dunes, or the beach, or the ORV areas around here. A lot of people pull their trailers up to the trail heads around here and it becomes a little community for the weekend, with the 4x4 and trail bike people running the trails all day and then partying at night. I like the A/C, and the shower/bathroom, and the kitchen, and the sat TV, and the flat screen, and the ps2, and the double bed, and the... you get the ideal. Nice to come back to after a long day of riding the trails and cleaning up, relaxing and catching the ball game with dinner. And, for some reason, women just love it. Go figure? I am trying to decide on one of the tents for the top of the H3 or little off-road trailer (I am digging the arm surplus trailer - would be a cool little restoration project) for longer off-road excursions as sleeping in the back of the H3 doesn't cut it. I have my eye on one of these for that... http://www.loftyshelters.com/IndexFrame.htm ...I don't know, though. A regular old tent would probably do.
