So who has the knowledge about building a camping trailer?
Plan is to make a small trailer for taking wheeling, to make basecamp, new to me RTT on top, kind of like this. Want to build frame out of steel, and the rest out of aluminum.
First question I have is what suspension parts to use?
I like the idea of independant suspension, and found these....
Timbren Heavy-Duty Axle-Less Trailer Suspension - 4" Lift Spindle - Off-Road Tires - 3,500 lbs
However, my original plan was to use leaf springs, but attach it to a unlocked rear 80 axle. That way parts are available if ever needed on the trails.
Here are a few pics I have been saving.
I like the batwing and tent on this one, and the kitchen setup. I would want the sides of the trailer taller and no top access to inner storage. I would also want to be able to raise and lower the sides of the tent platform.
This is the one that @UZJ40 built. Lot of great ideas there.
