Barefoot Build-2012

Progress Build

In short, bought as my "Covid-trailer" like so many, trailer was mostly in need of some updating when I got it as it was 8 years old. After a couple camping trips the electrical system needed attention - mostly was having issues with the time it would take to charge on the 7-pin connector with 2 batteries hooked up. The new power system has worked flawlessly on several trips and battery draw is minimal (only real electronics are the fridge) even when camping in the heat of the South.

The axle was my only real beef but it never gave us issues until last year when both spindles gave up the ghost. No knock on Barefoot, but I think the original axle was installed upside down. In any case the trailer is now sitting on a brand new #3500 axle and at this point I would call the trailer complete.

I had many more projects lined up for this such as more lighting and a different awning but as with many others, needs of the family (i.e. shower and toilet) necessitated purchasing something bigger.

I am happy to post any further pictures of the trailer. My old thread doesn't capture everything as I rarely post on MUD nowadays.

I'm moving up to a Mantis

I kept everything on the interior very minimal as I never found a solution I 100% liked. In it's current setup I think it's actually most functional, but knowing we wouldn't be keeping this thing forever I didn't want to go crazy.

I can most more pics, just message me on here or PM me.

Do you still have the propane bottles and holders?

Did you buy a new fridge or is this the one that came with the trailer when you bought it?

Do you have the title?

I do still have the propane bottle holders, as for the tanks unfortunately no.

I bought the fridge new (2021) for the trailer. Ill post more detailed pics when I can.

Title is in hand - registered as a utility trailer but this may vary by state I think.

Open to reasonable offers.

Front quarter panels showing age… initially thought it was welding lines but looking more like “liquid weld”.
