I have shortened The body between the back door and the windshield area and to help even out the tongue weight I am building a double swing out bumper that weighs quit q bit. I think the tongue weight will be spot on. I built a sub floor frame out of 1x2 square tubing that tubs out the floor...

Very nice to see your report on your trips, with your fab skills I would like to see what you would do with taking a Xj and turning it into a hard shell tear drop camper like I have been working on. It would work great in bear country. And tow nicely behind any rig. I wish I would get back to...

Very nice work. Looking forward to seeing where this goes!

Really enjoyed looking through your work on your mj, I have a 91 xj, they both are a very nice platform for both wheeling and overland travel. Keep up the great work!

It's the way things go with projects that have to do with our hobbies, life just gets in the way and it's hard to get back into a rhythm of working on it. Looking forward to updates also.

I am in the same boat as you. Building my camper trailer and the only thing that I am weary of is the electrical work. I do my electrical on my house so I think with some research I can figure out the trailer. I know it is a little more complicated though.

Where in Colorado are you going to play in?

I like what you have fone so far! Looks great.

Yes I totally understand. don't want the trailer whipping around back there.

Nice!! Your summer should be packed with adventures, do you think the trailer can do Tincup Pass type of trail? My goal is to be able to tug mine on moderate trails and camp just about anywhere. Like at the river on Metberry Gulch type of trail.

I have been working on the bumper for my trailer that will have a swing out tire carrier that has a receiver hitch in it so I can swing everything out of the way. This trailer doesn't have a roof top tent but may have one when everything is said and done. The plan is to also put two receiver...

I like it when you post anything! I end up reviewing your thread for inspiration for my build.

That is nice! Is that an exhaust fan against the front? I was hoping I could store a propane bottle inside my box with the batteries and system but that looks like it takes up all the space you have? maybe I'll have to mount my box to one side and put the propane bottle on the outside. Probably...

That a Max Coupler, is newer version I bought my Max Coupler a year ago yours has those wing tips (probably helps hitch it back together). That looks like you can go almost anywhere now?? Nice!

Hi, I live in Englewood. Saw your trailer you modified. Very nice! I am working on something in my spare time for my off road trailer, but it is taking me some time to get-er done. Kind of wish I had gone a similar route like yours. I run a 91 Xj 2dr. and am working on a trailer fashioned from a...

I don't know why but I the updates for these thread was going to my spam?? I just happened across it searching for something else. Nice that your getting everything buttoned up and have been using it. Now's the time you will be able to travel all over Spring is here!! We have plans to see the...

After buying my XJ for probably way more than I should have. I determined that the P.O. had took it swimming in a lake. (He had mentioned playing in the water at a lake with it) There was sand all the way up in the glove box. I took all the electrical connections apart used cleaners on them and...

On the trailer I am building (not a small trailer like the smitty built) I am planning on putting two receiver hitches in the same location quite like the way you have those set up. I want those so that I can add a motorcycle carrier to the back end. I think I will also build some jacks to fit...

Landed some used bilstein shocks recently and improved my ride.:smiley_drive:
