Hey everyone, I’m trying to confirm whether a military hard top will fit an M101A3 or M101A2 trailer, and I need the exact mounting surface dimensions at the top of the bed rails where the topper would mount. Could someone please provide me with: •The width at the very top rail where a...

that’s a great point. Thank you!

Any chance you’ve measured rail to rail? Where the toppers would mount

I recently picked up a military hard sided canopy that I’m unable to identify which trailer it matches with based on the ID tag. Doesn’t seem to be alot of information out there on this specific model. Does anyone have any good intel? Model: 1651 Serial number: E0121H05 Manufactured date: Oct 2004

I'm at a loss with how to go about the 12 volt conversion. I have studied the wiring diagrams however my wiring set up appears to be different due to the modification implemented prior to my ownership. Can someone please point me in the right direction?

Is it possible to conduct this modification as a 12 volt conversion for the m1010?

This is the conversion I referenced by chevymike

please help, m1010 12volt conversion prep, updated duvac wiring? I'm currently in the process of a major overhaul of the engine and electrical. At this time I'm prepping to conduct a 12 volt conversion that user Chevymike conducted on his m1010 in which he removed the duvac and wires but kept...

Lavarak thanks for the reply, I appologize I'm a visual learner. I'm not understanding step 4? I have also completed dogheads modification.

Lavarok, thanks for the diagram. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Conducting a 12volt conversion in the diagram you have drawn would be a matter of connecting the two positives at the duvac, removing the duvac, wire the batteries in parallel, replace the 24volt, and replace the starter?

The rear heater and ac have been removed, I no longer need the 24 volts for that.

I'm on the fence right now. I have researched and read many debates over the 12 volt conversion. I understand the benefits of 24volt starter. I'm considering the conversion for the the reason of survival. This vehicle is becoming a backcountry camper, specifically for the winter seasons...

When the photo's were taken the batteries were not in place. That's why the cables were left hanging. I'm in the middle of a good sized tear down and rebuild. I appreciate everyone's response.

. Lavarok thank you for your response. I'm positive that it's a 24 volt alt. The batteries are wired in series. The duvac is getting 24 volts on the entering terminal and 12 volts at the exiting terminal. Attached is a photo of the duvac model number

Winter has lifted here in the Pacific north west. I have been replacing and repairing parts on my m1010 as needed. When I initially acquired the vehicle I noticed a modification to the electrical system had been done. From what I understand the mod had been conducted by the military. The...
