Just out of curiosity. Which companies do modern (past 1945) trailers?
I know that PSM doe the 1 ton and 1,5 ton Blumhardt trailer of the Bundeswehr. M149 water trailer, M105 cargo and M332 ammo trailer.
Trumpeter has the M1082 LMTVT.
So any companies and subjects of all nations are sought.

If you are interested about the future campaign built "Truck and trailer", you can take a look on this tread, who is talking about all kits of truck with trailer who exist.

Here the link to enlist in the campaign, if you are interested.

Azimut/Best Value Model has a M201 trailer (for the French license built Jeep). It's the Italeri Jeep trailer updated with new resin wheels some detail parts and PE.

I have a HMMWV trailer from an obscure Czech manufacturer, of mediocre quality. I think there's a plain trailer and one with an electrical generator.

Cheers,

Christophe

Must be the M1101 trailers I heard rumors of. Do you have the companies name?

Thanks! The kit has a great potential for updating. I build one LTT myself once and guess I have to scratchbuild the frame and use better HMMWV tires.

You have also MMK another czech brand who makes several trailers.

One of them is for their own LMV resin kit. But I supposed it can be adapted on the Italeri LMV.

However, You will need to replace the wheels which are a bit little.

For a while AFV Club offered an M58 Miclic* resin trailer in both two and four wheel trailer versions. Unfortunately the web now says these kits have been discontinued.



*Recently saw a You-Tube video of two of the Miclic charge casings mounted on top of an Abrams turret under an armored cover. So it is possible this kit may be coming back but in a slightly different mine clearing application.
