Sweet Trailer bud, Saw the build on expo too and I must admit I did not like the front box at first but once painter it sure turned out sweet...
Very nice:cool:

[AxelR]

Wow that thing is nice!

[ChrisR]

Sweet setup! I want. :)

[JaredS]

Wow. That is sweet. Nice work!:vnice:

[TheOtherSide]

I'll take it!

Wow... really nice! Just came off a long weekend trip and the Jeep was overloaded with 3 adults and all our gear... would have been awesome to have a trailer like that. Building a trailer is on my "list".... but it'll be a while!

Nice work!

[Jeremy]

Very sweet setup!!!

[Sero]

Nice work!!

Is the wheel bolt pattern the same as the jeeps? Any pics of the water tank

[Overland_YJ]

bolt pattern is metric....5 x 120mm or something stupid like that. so i just drilled out the stud holes ever so slightly in my 5x4.5 wheels and they fit just fine. just did the 2 i will use on the trailer and the spare. i know it's not the best way to do things but i will be changing the axle for one with brakes someday so will get the proper bolt pattern then.

You could buy new non braking hubs for $40 each or so if you need to....
Have you seen the Yahoo group for these trailer owners, some cool info there as well as pics:)

i am waiting on the tank to come from the builder. had to custom order one to fit where i wanted between the frame rails. will be fabbing a rock/mud guard to go under it and hold it in place. once i get the electrical/propane/water system sorted i'll post pics.
