    Livin' Lite Quicksilver series, feedback welcome

    Sadly TGK is right. You can find them on the used market. I found mine there and it was better than new when I got it.

    I'm not sure how your top opens. If you could add some pictures of the operation it would help.

    Nemo has been a part of this build from the beginning because it was impossible to carry camping gear and a 180 pound Newfoundland in the back of my Jeep. A big part of having the trailer was to provide a warm and dry sleeping area off the ground for the both of us. It is with a sad and heavy...

    I have replaced I have replaced the springs on the Jeep with Old Man Emu heavy load springs. They have handled the load of the rear bumper add on's and the trailer very well.

    I really enjoy the new areas that this camping trailer has allow me to explore. This is a trip into the mountains of central Nevada. Just a man and his dog.

    My trailer uses a spacer and the 17" Jeep wheels so it can be done. I would call Liv'n Lite and they should be able to give you the part numbers that they used. I agree that carrying the one spare is the way to go which is one of the reasons why I changed the wheels on my Jeep. But with your...

    The trailer has no stabilizers, they could be added but I have never felt the need for them. I thought it would be nice to have a parking brake but have never needed that either. I carry plastic wheel chocks for both sides, the bed sits on the legs on the outside and feels very stable. It is...

    That is a good question. I have not weighed it. It does not have brakes. The Web Site shows 1270 empty and 930 useful, gross of 2200 lbs. Brakes are now an option and they call it a QuickSilver Rock Climber Tent Camper now...

    Hi Jake, Yes it is bolted through the aluminum frame members of the rear wall. On the inside it is secured with large washers and nuts. It will not pull back out because of the loaded weight.

    Great job on your trailer! I mounted a Propex heater in my Jeep trailer and they work very well. I found that the thermostat was designed so the the minimum temperature I could set was about 50 degrees. This was much to hot for me while I was sleeping...
