    Default New trailer

    Got this trailer this week and I am starting to brainstorm on what to do with it. no rust and in very good overall shape. I was thinking about putting some side cabinets on it for more storage but I have not had any luck. Any ideas would help. I believe it is called a pacmule from helder mfg. new phone pics 002.jpg

    welcome
    where is Mokena ?

    my thoughts are cruise the trailer threads see what you like or might want
    also go out load it up use it a few times make notes of what you like etc.

    we are selling our trailer ? not cause we dont love it but decided with the kids the dog the wife not liking the RTT we are going to a ground tent part of me likes a trailer though for loading gear so my needs of a trailer would not be as a sleeping platform as much these days ?

    I can say if the tent is up people are napping etc.. its nice to be able to get in the whole trailer without having to tip the tent
    I find I did not use the kitchen side to much the table was handy though for lunch stops but I had this grand idea of a kitchen slide now I like the snow peak stuff more ?

    SO for me a simple lunch shelf is handy
    a way to get quick lunch fixings so access to fridge/cooler and I think a fridge is a must so you might want to look at battery electrical in the trailer and get a fridge if ya dont have one
    making sure its as dusts proof and waterproof as can be is nice

    I would think about reinforcing the tongue.

    No it is not for sale. That is just the first shot of it.

    An unusual coupler on that drawbar, Of course I live a sheltered life using NATO hook or Ringfeder type drop pin couplers exclusively.
    Looks good otherwise, I expect you will have bags of fun with that one.

    I would definitely add some bracing to the tongue back to the main frame. Looks like a cool little trailer with lots of potential. I was looking for side boxes before and everyone wants an arm and a leg for them.
