M1101 Trailer MWO Application
MWO 9-2330-392-20-1 gives your trailer’s landing leg mounting bracket more stability, and
MWO 9-2330-392-20-2 upgrades the original surge brake actuator. And both MWOs apply
to M1101 and M1102 trailers and chassis manufactured under the 1994 contract. Your trailer
needs these MWOs if the data plate, shown as Item 3 in ±ig 15 of TM 9-2330-392-14&P, has
contract number DAAE07-94-CR014 on it. Otherwise, no action is required.
Trailers manufactured after that were produced with the required changes. Got questions?
