In 2016 I bought some beat up 101A2’s that came up for auction. Dented, missing wheels, moss growing on them. I pretty much got what I paid for. Go pick up my booty. So, I didn’t like how low the tongue was. Remove tongue, sell for $100. add new 2.5” receiver hitch because it fits...

Price reduced to $1200 I had a couple of these, sold one, and have this one up for sale. Probably the nicest one I have. Surge brakes work, parking brakes work. If you want the bolt pattern to match your vehicle, I believe you can buy a standard 12” drum with the appropriate bolt pattern...

Let's pretend that budget isn't an issue. What does an expedition trailer need to have, and what would you love to have in/with your trailer. FYI, this isn't just for kicks and giggles, I really want to know. I'm halfway into a solid trailer, and I want to consider everything. I don't care if...

I am going to build an expedition vehicle on the M923A2 (military 5-ton). First step, the box. Yeah, I can build one, but it would look like a home made box. And cost 70% or so of a professionally made box. I want a professional looking box. Proper doors and windows. Custom shell. I'll worry...

I am building a lid for my adventure trailer. The sides will have a radius of about 6" or so. i want to tack or rivet the sheet metal at the edges, and then bend the entire sheet around the 5 structural radius members that span the width that define the shape of the lid. What gauge metal would...

Hi, I'm Buffalobwana and I like trailers. All kinds and types. And trucks and tractors too. But that's for another session. I have to take a break from my very important expedition trailer build to go pick up my latest impulse buy. A Turtle Mountain M105A2. It's one heavy trailer, so it's...
