    Here are the click free pics for you.

    Nice set-up, and I really like the color combination you went with on the '5 and M416 - looks great!

    I really like those Ben-Hur trailers, but seldom see them come up on the market for sale...

    As my other trailer has decided to Rust In Pieces I've finally had to place my M101CDN to use. My garage furnace was running low on fuel so I took yesterday off on my own personal Quest For Fire, or at least stuff that'll burn.

    After spending an hour working out in the cold & dark Thursday night converting the lights to 12 volts I was legal (or at least legal enough) to take it on the road yesterday. This is what I woke up to-

    Note the nice glowy tail lights :)

    Found a garage a few minutes up the road with a couple hundred gallons of waste oil they didn't really feel a personal attachment to-

    Bonus points to anyone who can identify what my pump started life as :twisted:

    I like the roof top tent! I've been thinking of doing the same thing with our trailer. There's a company in Oregon that has started building roof top tents. I just checked their website and I see that they are introducing a line of off-road trailers too.

    Here's the link: http://www.cascadiatents.com/

    Those little trailers yall got are purdy nifty and i would love to have one some day BUT...I would have to give the winning point so far to the photos of the Cj doin some rock wheelin while towing the trailer made of half a cj tub...VERY cool! Only seen that once before with a cherokee towing a half-o-cherokee trailer (old cherokee cut off between front and rear doors then closed in). Also, is it just me of does that jeep look awfully similar to Posi's?

    No action pics yet. This trailer was basically given to me. Two owners ago, the guy moved from New York to Colorado with this thing. He added the sides, boxed in the frame, and beefed up the hitch bar on the front. The last owner used it once a year to haul yard trash in the fall.

    I started with minor repairs, and it turned into a full blown rebuild. Changed the plywood floor to planks. Changed the plywood sides to diamond plate. And switched out the 2 bolts that were holding the 8" wheels on, to a true 3,500lbs rated axle with 31x10.50/15 BFG mud terrains and aluminum slotted mags. My buddy broke out a concrete floor, and we hauled all 3,200 pounds in one load to the dump. The way it rode, I was guessing around 1000 lbs. I have no idea how I managed without a trailer for so long.

    No, I don't even know if I'll enter a pic in this year. I think I'll give someone else a chance.

    I think this is the only pic I have of my Jeep with my trailer.... I've been gathering parts such as a roof top tent and possibly some drawers to make it a camping trailer in the future.
