--Sorry, tonight my photo shack is having pms, just click on these and they show the stages of construction--JIMBO

Cool. Planning on building one myself or modifying an existing military trailer.
Looks like your building quite a few of them, your company?

No, I'm not doing it, but TENTRAX of Oregon is--

--

The trailor was originaly designed for JEEPS, but you know how they are ??

Here's my latest construction update, waiting now on Billett hub adapters for Xterra bolt pattern, probably another 1/2 weeks--

--Patiently waiting--

Ok, I got my trailer-here's two pictures for you overzealous campers--

--first, at Tentrax in Oregon

--Second, with a snowless Mt Shasta, California, in the background--

do you have AAF or did you install timbren bumpstops...

Awesome trailer... I'd love to have one of those!

-Yo sonora, what's AAF ??

--I don't have Timbren, although. I have seen so many good things about their rear supports, BUT I don't need them--

--With the trailer loaded with 322 lbs of camping gear, the TONGUE weight is 92lbs and the trailer is easily manueverable BY HAND, although I have a jack set-up with a 10" rubber caster/wheel, so I can move it all around the truck if necessary-KEWL

The problem with that trailer for off-road use is that it uses a standard hitch ball coupler. For proper off-road use, a trailer needs to use a pintle hook and lunette eye coupler. If you look at military trailers they all use that coupling system because it has more lateral movement than a ball coupler.

Other than that, that is a beautiful trailer. How much?

Yea, I don't blame you for thinking that X-treme, but that std(with chains) ball hitch, was for towing on the Freeway 500 miles home, to Northern California--

--The trailer was designed for "OFF-ROAD" and has been on the last 4/5 MOAB runs (although behind JEEPS)--

--With the (off-road) package, the trailer comes supplied with BOTH std (ball), coupling and full PINTLE/LUNETTE RING hook-up, which is what I have, It'll follow me anywhere ,(wish some blonds would)!!!
