The "Un-Offical" Off Road Trailer Pic Thread

Acadia · 03-30-08, 08:40 PM

I thought it would be a good idea to start a trailer picture thread. It will be a great place for a guy looking for ideas for a trailer or maybe it will motivate someone to either buy or build one of their own.

Post up pics of your off road trailer and if you did a custom build a link to the build thread. Maybe throw in a brief discription of the trailer and your done

Acadia · 03-30-08, 08:44 PM

Here is my trailer "in progress"

started life as a 4'x6' homemade utility trailer that the PO was using to haul his dirt bike on.

roamingaz · 04-02-08, 04:45 AM

pint · 04-02-08, 03:38 PM

Here is mine! Oh wait, I don't have a trailer yet. Hopefully I will in the next few weeks!

Roberto · 04-02-08, 06:54 PM

Here's my CDN M101, plan to paint 033 white to match LC, add 235x85x16 Goodyear Wrangler MTR's, plans to get a Technitop, and continue to pour money I dont have into it from there.

Can't wait to see the results!

I bought this trailer about five months back. I've been waiting to clear up some title issues with the DMV/PO to make any kind of mods. It's finally legally mine as of today, so I've got some planning, thinking, and scoping in this forum to do. At least it is already converted to a 2" ball and a flat four and is basically ready to go as is. But is leaving stuff alone ever really an option?

Looking forward to spending some time in this particular thread.

Enjoy.

roamingaz · 04-05-08, 08:13 PM

looks nice, are you in Arizona ?

It strikes me as a modified military. It's titled as home made.

Nice! I love the camo and the overall look. I may use it as inspiration when I get mine going.

lowenbrau · 04-08-08, 01:40 PM

My M101cdn

Jonny Law convinced me to swap to 9R16s that don't stick out quite as far.

REZARF · 04-08-08, 05:26 PM

Lowenbrau-

I always like your trailer. Could you widen the fenders and keep the same meats?

Rezarf <><

Exiled · 04-11-08, 06:12 AM

Here's version 3.0 of mine, but I'm already down the road to 4.0.

1967 M416, been tinkering with it since 1995!

Since this picture was taken, I've lowered the trailer by 2.5" and swapped out the complete axle in favor of a new one to match the oddball lug pattern of the UZJ100. Running OEM steel wheels w/285/75R16s to match the Cruiser. I've also mounted a couple of small propane tanks and I think I have the spare tire issue figured out. New pics coming soon.

Cheers!

REZARF · 04-11-08, 11:09 AM

Come on Henry! You are such a tease!

Rezarf <><

photogod · 04-11-08, 02:18 PM

I think I might have to mount my spare on my roof rack. I can't think of a good place to mount it on the trailer.

Honestly, these things benefit very little from a lift. The only reason to do it (besides looks) is to share the spare with the tow vehicle. It is amazing how little trouble a military trailer will have on 31" tires following a rig on 35s

semlin · 04-14-08, 12:52 AM

i agree. they have tons of rear clearance. the biggest problem is tongue height. I need a drop bar pintle hitch.

boctor12 · 04-19-08, 11:11 PM

Here are some pics of mine. Still working on the fenders. 16 gal water tank under the diamond plate in the front. Put a 2.8 GPM pump underneath. Pressure hose, faucet, propane tank, Deka AGM battery, 6 flood lights, 33" tires on rock crawler wheels, switch box, battery charger with 4 AC plug ins, NOS springs and shackles, Rancho 5000 shocks. I plan on getting the outside and inside spray lined. Also got some shelving/counterspace/propane burners/stereo in the works. Here is the link to the build: http://forum.ih8mud.com/trailer-tech...416-build.html

Acadia · 04-20-08, 07:37 AM

there are some VERY COOL trailers pictured above

Thats a nice trailer!
It looks simular to what I am building. I have so far mounted my RTT on my truck rack and left the rack on the trailer to hold the solar panel and spare tire plus a front cargo area for extra stuff.
I will post updated pics today.

pint · 04-20-08, 01:08 PM

boctor12, that is a bad ass trailer! I just picked up an M101 this past week and am looking at your, Exiled, etc for ideas to begin my build. I need to get this thing done, from start to finish in the next 6 weeks. Well, like the Cruiser, I'm sure it will never be done, but I want to get it pretty close! Here is what I'm starting with.

Jeepin Jason · 04-20-08, 09:06 PM

Here is mine, currently working on repainting it. And yes, I am another Jeep guy, but currently in the market for an FJ for my wife and have been lurking for a long time on the trailer side of this forum...

boctor12 · 04-20-08, 09:31 PM

ROAMINAZ, Let me know what you come up with the solar panels and how well they work. Thanks for the compliments.
