There were many manufactures of these trailers. Bantam ( I think thats right) was one. I have a Dunbar (another brand) for sale and I also have a Vietnam era M-416 Mutt trailer that was made by the American Air Filter Corporation. Anyway if yours has round fenders it's probably an
M-100 1/4 ton trailer (the M-416 trailer has square fenders) As for parts, I had always understood that the hubs, bearings,seals etc. were the same as early military Jeep. Unless someone else has better info.,I would start contacting military Jeep parts houses, try a web search. There are many parts houses that sell nothing but military parts. Good Luck.
