...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.'

Great JOB Jeff. Looks good and functional.

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.

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!"

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,
I think the "urban camo" looks great! Matches the silver truck nicely too. Really liking the build...keep the updates coming!
