M1101 or M1102 trailer towing
Anyone ever tow one of these trailers? They are a little heavier/bigger than the M101s. I'm running 35s so I've already got some power issues but was hoping I could possibly use it as a utility.

I tow a cnd m101 similar to the m416 in America
I've got 35s with 4.88 gears and I don't even feel the thing behind me it is the best trailer I have ever towed behind my jk and I have towed everything frm utility trailers, small homemade dirtbike trails...
Anything bigger than this would just be overpowering I think

Picked up my M101A2 two weeks ago. 3 hour drive home at hwy speed no issues with a bone stock 12 with 3.73s. Couldn't really feel it. I'm eyeing a M1101 now.
Military trailer addiction ... Bidding on auctions is like gambling. I really don't need more trailers but I still have space in the garage for 3 more & they're cheap.

I bought one of these trailers last year. At the time i still had the 3.8L w/ 35"s/ 3½" lift and 4.88 gears in an auto.
A few months after towing the trailer - i noticed oil splatter on the front of it. which helped me notice the oil dripping tailpipe...... which lead to the discovery that my woeful 3.8L was $hitting itself.... Cant say for sure, but i think trailer contributed to death.
I went through all phases - denial, Anger, Bargaining and acceptance..... my solution was to install a Chevy 5.3 V-8 with a 6L80 transmission. now i can tow trailer up 8% grades in 5th gear.
i wasnt ever planning to do a V-8, but i think towing the trailer put the last nail in the coffin of my 3.8L / auto. good riddance...
