Installation notes
The ring is fitted between the lunette eye and the receiver (yoke/casting). Assembly is carried out together with spring, castle nut and split pin. The spring behind the lunette eye prevents wear and excessive play during towing and stopping.
Compatibility
Note: different trailer types have different lunette eye angles and thicknesses. Willys MBT and M416 lunette eyes are interchangeable and have the same mounting angle. M100 lunette eyes have a different angle and are NOT compatible with MBT/M416 receivers. Check your trailer type before fitting.
Historical context
The rotating lunette eye system was characteristic of American 1/4 ton military trailers and enabled extreme articulation over difficult terrain, even when the trailer tipped without pulling the towing vehicle with it.
