Got my new meats on.

@BMThiker that is a great looking trailer.

What did you do to convert your blackout taillights?

I just ordered these. I plan on using 2 part epoxy to glue them to the thick lower part of the inner lens

If that does not work I may just mount these into the frame. The taillights look too good to toss for regular ones.

 

[BMThiker]

I removed the IR fixture from the left side and just put standard bulbs in the tail light assembly. Painted the housings flat black.

CVT.....

These little LEDs fit perfectly into some stock holes in the frame.

Gonna keep the blackouts there for looks and these will be incognito stop, tail and blink

"Andy's Trailer" $950

Looks rough but that is the old military paint and surface rust.

Well done tongue extension and ball hitch saved this from collectors.

Sandblast will make this puppy new. It's the straightest and most unmolested.

OEM holes in the tub only. Great base if you want to "build" one

If Andy passes it's going to get pressure washed with my bulldozer washer and put up for sale

If anyone wants this it's $800 firm. Andy has enough on his plate to deal with this project right now.

It's a good trailer. Hitch is 2" and although a bit crude in the underside, is well done on the top.

RZR is about to cost me $2500 so I need the cash.

Come get it.

I got the shocks on my trailer. The old ones would not compress at all. Not sure why 48 year old shocks would fail.....

Foam cell mucho comfort pro's just arriving on US soil?

 

[wngrog]

Haha. These were NAPA at $25 each

 

[77TLCFJ40]

Did that Napa part number work that we discussed?

 

[wngrog]

SOLD

$800

Rusty but complete. Bead blast it or just drag it like this.

Will keep it in here for y'all to think about for a week then it is going to the other sites.

 

[wngrog]

Got my spare mounted and a shackle for the emergency chains to hang from.

I'm about to crack open the hubs/brakes see if I can make them work

 

[MEMCruiser]

If I didn't have a vacant rental house with hail damage and a leaky basement I would already have that trailer.

 

[wngrog]

Sold it today.

My bearings still had grease but it was pretty hard. I'm sure it would have gone many miles but it is nice to know it is fresh now

If you don't have one of these bearing packers you need one

 

[wngrog]

Brakes were good. Just needed adjusting.

I am going to be able to use these LEDs in my blackout housings. They shine fine through these thick lenses.

I'm going to take the 60 and the trailer to Rob to wire both.

I had to cut out the trailer harness on the 60 when I was installing the bumper due to a short.

He will do a better job than me.....

 

[pmccraney]

My 60 lacks a wiring harness too, and I will need one for my new M416

So, Rob will get to do that job twice although I have a couple of other small electrical gremlins for him to fix too while he's got it.

 

[wngrog]

Hooked up the little guy today. This is about all the 60 needs to be towing.

The longer tongue allows me to see it now. Happy.

The trailer will go 90* if the tire did not hit the bumper but that's a good thing. It stops it softly.

The shocks actually help. I thought it was BS but when I hit the whoops (Davis Crossing) it tracks and does not bounce like crazy like it did.

Safety chains on the bumper shackles work fine. No binding.

Off to Rob on Wednesday.
