    Help Identifying Vintage Jeep Trailer

    I agree, yours must be whatever the blue one above is. If they say its a Converto, great, but why? What marks does it have to prove it? The tub style and tailgate shapes are the same, Im guessing a few years difference between the two would explain the hook design changes and other small details.

    Help Identifying Vintage Jeep Trailer

    Right, I looked at a Spen for comparison as well and its definitely not that. It does seem to be similar green to David Bradley, but Im not convinced. What do the wheels look like under the hubcaps? any square holes that could be used to mount wheel weights (on a tractor)? Thats usually a...

    Help Identifying Vintage Jeep Trailer

    Hmm. BenHur, DavidBradley, and Montgomery Ward all had trailers like that. Im sure there are others Im not aware of, but I am also interested in what you can find about it. Are there any numbers, stampings, serial plates anywhere on it?

    Thoughts on POR 15 for trailer build?

    I had a very poor experience with Chassis Saver from Magnet Paints (the Monstaliner guys), but POR15 has never let me down. My trailer "frame" and underside were done in POR15, the tongue was TopCoated POR15, and the tub was all done with MagnetPaints Chassis Saver then sanded and Monstalined...

    Tommy Liftgate to Trailer

    I think it would be better on something like an m1101 or m101 or m105. Something wide enough and heavier to handle it

    tarp for covering trailer during transportation

    I'm not sure about the OP, but in my case the tarp will be used for camping trips and other large items that don't fit in totes. Or dirty items that don't go in totes but don't need to be exposed to the elements constantly. I have as many totes as the next guy because I like to be organized...

    tarp for covering trailer during transportation

    I'm struggling with the same debate for my sears and roebuck trailer with custom rack. I was planning on canvas but now I'm wondering if I should reconsider for the highway miles I'll see en route to destinations. Canvas or vinyl or heavy poly? Other options I'm missing?

    XJSuperman's Sears&Roebuck Trailer

    I actually don't know exactly how tall it is. I know I have almost 4 feet of height between the floor and it. I know it's not quite as tall as my jeep, and I know the uprights are at an 80deg angle. But I focused more on using what I had and building it square rather than building to exact...

    Ammo can idea thread

    Latest score for me. Not as cool as the power setups above, but still perfect for my uses. Finally got one of the big 20mm cans. It holds all thencrap on the floor in the pic and more. And it's literally full flush to the top. This is the gearbox in my jeep and replaced a dufflebag I...
