Be very careful ! Please research CARC paint before you do any sanding on that trailer . I bought one that looked identical to it last year in Barnesville Ga. and sanded it with minimal protection and have had to pay a heavy price for my ignorance .

Started welding in the patches on the trailer. The TJ is getting a locker, Posi traction, and 4.88 gears out in it this week. That should help with the extra trailer weight.

Going to the cove in TN Saturday in the jeep for a test run, trailer won't be ready so it's staying home.

Got a killer deal on a new top, also battered for some half doors with 2 sets of uppers! Love re half doors already.

I have not installed the top piece of the new top yet, waiting on my windshield channel to be delivered.

I kept the old soft top, I'll change them out. I have the quick disconnects so it's easy. They won't come on too many trips, Thanos is blind in one eye.

Finally started working on the trailer again. I bought a 7" sander and sanded the por15 I put down and then primed it. Need to finish priming the other side and then I'll start working on the tub. <br />

Here is a picture if some of the prime sprayed. <br />

We are taking a beach camping trip during memorial weekend so I have a lot to get done in 1 month. I'm gonna go with the cvt black butte and awning as my shelter. <br />

Looks like that trailer is going to clean up nicely!

Man am I happy to see another TJ on here! She looks great and really look forward to seeing how that trailer comes along. Might have to look into getting myself one too!
