Yes, there is a lid for the pamphlet box. Note that it opens left to right. There were a pair of solid rivets which acted as the hinge IIRC.
There were no catches on the pamphlet holder and only one latch on the cable holder with no locking feature. Last edited by rob love; 11-09-11 at 18:22.

Document box
Here is what I could find on the web for a inner document box with cover which my New to me M110 does not have.

M 100 Tail Lights
Did these trailers leave the service with the M38A1 style light or were they upgraded. Does anybody have a Data plate that they could part with?

Mine had (has) the M-series tailights not the larger NATO standard style.
although I may switch to the larger ones just for safety sake (originals will be kept for historical accuracy when needed)

M100 tail light upgrade
The original tail light mounting brackets don't provide enough clearance for the new series composite tail lights: the army just bent the brackets and jammed the lights into place. Best to fabricate a new set of brackets so the tail lights aren't wedged into place at an awkward angle.

Marc, Here are a few photos of the m-100 also added the serial number that is stamped into the draw bar for comparison.

If you are going to go to the larger lights, they are available on ebay these days for as little as $15 or $20 each. These are the newest LED examples which will work with either 12 volt right up to 36 volt. I would suggest building brackets which raise the lamps higher than the bottom of the trailer and set them back to the back edge of the trailer, so they don't get smacked. Even better is to get the large composite lamps made of metal, except they will not have the multi-voltage capability. Marc said: Quote:

Brake handle and linkage
Jason, thanks for the pics. Could you post some pics of the brake handle and linkage. I just picked a trailer up down south but it is missing the data plate, cover to the pamphlet holder, park brake handle, and the military wiring harnes which attaches to the towing vehicle. Besides that for a 1952 trailer its in great shape. A welcome addition to my Recce Patrol.
