It is funny...it looked big in the first pictures...but became like a teardrop trailer behind the Liberty...looks great and don't call her "Runt"...she looks pretty tall...

Chris,

Great job on the trailer! I recently sold mine but had a blast building it a few years ago. I've met a couple of teardroppers from Texas...they were fun people!

Is that the "Weekender" plan?

Great work!

Chris

Thanx Chris, It was more a copy of Joanne's Desert Dawg. Next one I will take my time and do a traditional shape but offroad capable.

Darby, I know when I was building it it seemed bigger but then I hooked up to the KJ and it looked like it shrunk. "The Runt" is the trailer not the wife

Gringo Loco, excellent work on the trailer, how much did you spend for the platform?
I have seen 4x8's for pretty cheap from tractor supply for anyone who cares (TSC has quickly elevated it's self to my favorite store).
I want to get a smaller 4x8 enclosed trailer for work, but I need to be able to pack it with at least 2,000 LBS of tools, parts, and whatever else I might need. In the same sense, I would love to build a camper to be able to get my wife to go out camping with me, but we wouldn't be able to bring our horse, and I think that she would rather sleep in a tent than only have my Mountain Bike and fishing poles with us...


It's funny that working on your trailer which seems huge, once you put it up to the jeep, shrinks..

It was my luck that shen we saw this trailer, and tried our horses in it, it seemed like a great size, and not too big...





















But when I hooked it up to my libby, I felt like my jeep had shrunk!!!!


It's uglier in the second picture because I have been burning out all the "cancer" (with my plasma cutter and replacing it with fresh sheetmetal. I was up until 10:45pm last night building my own homebrew fenders

Does anyone near Ohio know how to work on trailer brakes? I need to get mine hooked up, but I don't know where to even get a schematic, yet alone how to test them properly.
