    Nice work. I like the kitchen too. The diamond tread in the door is sweet.

    Maiden voyage today. Took the trailer for a spin in the mountains today. Just asphalt, no dirt.
    Tows fantastic. Brakes are ok, I will adjust the brakes tomorrow. I like very good brakes.
    The springs are a little too soft. I think I will first try adding an ad-a-leaf, over load spring and standing the shocks more toward vertical.

    This is why I chose the size trailer I did. Nice and tucked behind the truck.

    Default Tell me what you think.

    When I purchased my trailer used, there were a ton of vinyl stickers all over the trailer.That is what the guy did, he was a mobil sticker and T shirt service.The removal of all the stickers did not go well and damaged the white paint coating.So I am thinking of doing a vinyl wrap.This is a photo shop of my first idea. I am open to any others.Please give me you .02Thanks.Jeff

    I like it. Desert camo looks good too. I always thought it would look cool to blow up a few topo maps from my fav spots for a skin.

    OH NO....I shouldn't have read this thread. Lol. I have a 5x8 version of this trailer, no side door though.

    I could easily add some do-dads to make it a camping rig.

    Looks like you converted to led tail lights. I did the same on mine. I converted all my lights to clear lens style.

    Jeff,
