Rommel,
The knob in the box is what we are looking for.

Rommel,
 
Glad the parts finally arrived;)
 
I asked to have this thread moved to the Bantam Trailer Forum further down.
 
Like Randy mentioned the knob is in the box with an original Fulton Coupler. The green coupler is the modern replacement. We basically need the modern to have a the old style knob but the bolt with thread from the other direction.
 
I'm sure these are made by an over seas supplier for the trailer business in the USA.
 
 
and then look like this:

Rommel,
 
It has now been 18 months since the samples arrived.
 
Has there been any development in the hitch coupler and knob, trailer tongue - hitch casting, or any of the other pieces I supplied you?

A new MD JUAN Representative recently joined the CJ2APage so I sent her a PM to check on progress unknown to me they actually reproduced some parts...I wish Rommel would have answered at least one of my inquiry's but here is what's on the Website...nothing on the hitch or casting at this time.

Other than MD Juan...who will be selling these parts?  Are they selling in the US already?  What are their prices?  Anyone knows?

I believe DLBensinger has a New Tub in stock $950
Side Panels Supports about $30
 
Floor $300
 
I contacted them last week as soon as I found out MDJUAN actually used my provided patterns to start building T3-C parts.

Art:  Thanks for the input.  Good to know that someone is already crying parts for these trailers.  But other than the obvious parts mentioned already, how about the hard to find parts like the safety chains, the hitch and their different parts.  A reproduced arrow taillight would be nice.  Any idea on those type of pieces?

Thanks,

Joel

She said the hitch casting is still in development, but did not mention the coupler or knob.
 
I did not supply an Arrow 41 for a pattern as they are hard enough to come by.
 
The side panel supports I supplied both had lamp holes, so I assume that is why the right side was set up for a lamp too.

Hi all,
I'm interested in a tailgate for my Bantam T3C and was pleasantly surprised when I saw that MD Juan was planning on making them.  However, I've not found any Jeep/Willys parts suppliers that are carrying them yet.  Any recommendations on where to look, or am I too early and have they not yet been made/marketed?  Thanks!

No personal experience with these guys. Might help you find what you're looking for though. Good luck.

If you are asking when Juan acquired the original T3-C parts for examples/patterns...I traded with him in May of 2013 at the Spring Willys Reunion.
