Just drug this home from Maine. Happy to find a forum to help in what will be a restoration of this trailer.

How did THAT get past me?, lol. Looks like a solid jumping off point-
Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it... Welcome to 1930's Germany

Doing some odds and ins to my trailer. Wheel bearings, New U-bolts for the springs, and making the landing leg operational.

One feature this trailer had was a spare tire holder under the bed. Based on the work, guess it was a PO addition, anyway got that all removed, it was no longer operational. I am left with a hole in the center of the bed. Based on the ribbing in the bed sheet metal I am guessing the bolt was part of the original design. Is that correct?

Also looking for opinions on mounting a spare, Sometimes I will use this trailer without the jeep being in front. Have seen front mounts, rear mounts. Anybody put the spare up under the bed in the back?

Thanks.

Jon.

I'm not aware of any holes (bolts) in an original T3-C bed floor... Unless it was a military bed.  Then it would have 1 or 2 holes off to the sides depending on the type.
