Reviewing past auctions, they seem to go for $35-70 each. Which
concerns me. Are these utter junk, or no one wants a trailer

diesel genset?


Yes, I would say you are buying them at scrap prices. Anything the
military used has been sitting outside for 5 plus years.


Halcitron, have you looked at the actual pictures of the stuff being
sold?

A buddy said he would pay for a pair of them, if we could get
something that would be suitable for home/ranch utility use.

Any suggestions, comments, info would be appreciated.

Also...how does one pull a pintle style trailer with a ball hitch?


Replace ball hitch with Pintle.

He needs a different height of the pintle, about 10 inches higher at
least. These are high trailers. They will look really stupid on a
standard height receiver, leaning forward way too much. Probably
unsafe too.

Does anyone make an adjustable pintle?

Where there is steel, there is a way.
