I have been searching for an expedition trailer with all the useability attributes of a Chaser but the ability to haul an ATV or some kayaks. If anyone knows of a company that sells them, please point me in the right direction. Otherwise, I will build my own (may just do it anyway) for myself and my friends.
Basically I want around 120 cubic feet of low lying cargo area and enough compartment storage to fit kitchen gear, water, camping equipment, and a roof top tent. The trailer must be able to make it down some class 2 trails or a few mild obstacles, have a relatively low center of gravity, and have the same track width and length as a 3rd gen 4Runner. Dimensions need to be minimized to fit with the truck in a TEU container for international shipping.
Overall, this trailer needs to be solid and simple in construction of working parts(i.e. I can find parts that work if somoething goes wrong in..... somewhere.... get it!). If I break a leaf spring, I can repair it with an on board welder, if I break a coil I am up the creek!
Anyways, I have not found anything that meets my requirements on the market to date. If I make one, would anyone else be interested?
