Application
This floor fits the Bantam T-3 military trailer (1942-1945) and the comparable Willys MBT trailer. Both trailers featured a single drain plug in the floor (unlike later M-100/M-416 trailers which had two drain plugs).
Installation notes
The floor is welded into the trailer structure. Ensure the drain plug opening is correctly positioned. The pressed ribs must point upwards for drainage and structural strength. Due to the dimensions, freight lorry delivery is recommended.
Compatibility
Fits Bantam T-3 (1942-1945) and Willys MBT trailers. Not compatible with post-war T-3C civilian trailers or later M-100/M-416 trailers without modifications. Note: MBT/T3 trailers have one drain plug, later models have two drain plugs.
Historical context
The Bantam T-3 was the ¼-ton amphibious cargo trailer developed during WWII as a companion to the jeep. Bantam produced over 75,000 units between 1942 and 1945, Willys-Overland manufactured more than 60,000 MBT variants.
