Ed's comparison to the M416 is somewhat close. The M101Cdn2 was a replacement for the M100. It has no lineage to the M101, which was a 3/4 ton trailer.
The body of the M101Cdn2 is unique. Similar to the stampings of the M100, but with 1/8 plate re-enforcing the corners, and square stock on the upper edge, as opposed to the round edges of the earlier 1/4 ton trailers. The hitch is M416, with two heights that it could be set to. The springs are just commercial, with plastic bushings. They have no comparison with any of the US military trailers. Same with the axles....purely commercial and Canadian. Park brake handles are the late type, as used on M416 and on just about every SMP after the late 60s.

Thanks Rob.
Does anyone have a hi-res close-up photo of the trailer, either with or without an additional frame? This must be in CF use and not privately owned. Please send to clive@servicepub.com. The photo will be used in an upcoming WOW booklet. Thnx, Clive
