Redid another m416 trailer. I galvanized one like this a couple of years ago that o have set up for camping, this one will stay configured for hauling firewood or whatever else. The aluminum cap was made by the unit it was issued to. I also have a set of aluminum track rack bars I may run on it.

How do you find the center of gravity on the trailer with the tent mounted? I think I would like a similar setup, built with the same approach people take to making truck caps - I imagine it would be fine with some weight in the trailer?

The way i have it mounted the center of gravity remains the same as the trailer empty.
