1 - ton Cargo Trailer

The trailer pictured in TM 9-2800 was built by the Ben Hur Manufacturing Company.  As is often the case, a brand name becomes the generic term for the item.  Generally all one-ton trailers were called "Ben Hur" although they were made by many different manufacturers.

The Kempner POWER WAGON Museum has a one-ton trailer manufactured by the Ben Hur Manufacturing Company - a true "Ben Hur" - and it is displayed in parades and static exhibits hitched to the back of the Museum's WC-52 3/4 ton weapons carrier.
