hello all. i'm really just a leacher around here, so i'm finally asking for some advice.
i have a 6' x 12' utility trailer that i'd like to convert into a go-anywhere trailer. i'd still like to keep it useful for a utility trailer, but have it be ready for a nice little expedition.
i'm thinking of adding frame supports on the underside, as well as adding in some a-frame style reinforcements on the tongue to the frame. then at least a spring over axle, with axle and spring handling upgrades. i'll probably then go with the tallest tires i can find, but stick with trailer tires as i've heard street tires aren't the best for a trailer.
i'll add some provisions for a camper shell and upper deck, as well as a nice toolbox/propane/jerry can storage pad on the front. i'll keep the tailgate, but make it so it can fold in half to reduce utility wind resistance.
has anyone done anything like this? i can't find any really good threads, but i might have been searching wrong. please feel free to help me out, i appreciate it!!
