Thanks! Do you have a build thread or a picture you can share?

Not bad at all. It went smooth and surprisingly quick. Make sure you emphasize that it's home built and that the lights work.

The trailer only handles bad when I have stuff on the tailgate but when I tow it with the tailgate up (80% of the time) it's great. It's a mcwelco steel box and the heaviest things get loaded there and the lightest at the back (pillows and blankets) but the leverage is what makes it wag around...

I'm using the trailer more lately and I have to start putting weight up from or it swerves all over the freeway if it hits a pebble.

Dude that looks awesome! Can you drive with the trailer cover extended if you had more things to store in there?

Big props on your build man! Where in the west coast are you head to?

My last two post are different. I've had the rear springs on my truck reworked and 3 leafs added which lifts the rear end, that's why the trailer looks level. The steel box helped and I tried putting heavy stuff up forward and the lighter stuff in he back.

Trailer did great over the weekend at Barstow. I really need to add tongue weight because is had a swerve the whole time I was towing.

Good progress! I'd like to buy a small 7-10 gal fuel tank in mine.

i wanted a matching bed but i knew i would be compromising size. if i just wanted a trailer i would have built/bought a different now. i will work with what i have but i'm happy with my decision. your truck came in both long and short bed so just build the long bed. same tail lights and bed...

My truck only comes in a 5' bed.

I just started looking for offroad podcasts and came across yours.

want to start off by saying i'm a listener of your podcast and it is the best one out there by far. i've been back tracking on the episodes and i finally get to see the trailer you've been talking about. sub'd

How much weight do you need up front so the trailer rides right? I have read that 60/40 is about right.

Awesome build man and you're giving me ideas with my matching trailer.

Looks awesome man! Does your trailer tip back when it's standing alone? Mine has that issue so I went ahead and bought a steel McWelco box for more tongue weight.

I have under $400 into the trailer. That includes: Frame Bed Lights Tool box Registration 33" tires 15" wheels

I've always been a fan of matching trailers. It's much easier and cheaper to do it this way
