I see many trailer builds mine is pretty simple but I would like some input. I bought this unfinished off-road trailer for a very good price considering it has brand new 33" BFG AT's new 16" soft eight rims a new axle and wheel spacers. I can see the plan that they were going for but I need something more versatile.
The main thing I need help with is dimensions. I like the design of the Bantam T3-C trailers but they seem as though they may be a little small, but I have only seen rough dimensions. It looks as though the size of the bed itself is 36"x72" and a height of 18". That is from the Bantam site based off of the "Body", "Floor Width" and the "tailgate" measurements they have listed.
I am thinking I want mine to be 46" wide in order to make smooth sides inside but I may be able to get 48" depending on the size of the side supports I use. Right now the front and back are 1.5" square tubing and pretty beefy. The current length is 55" but I would like to make it around 7' long.
My end goal is to have an open trailer that will hold my camping equipment eventually have a removable lid to keep everything dry, and a rack to hold my kayaks. I don't foresee spending the money on a rooftop tent. What are your thoughts on size based off of your experience?
Below are pics of it when I got it and after I stripped the sides and roof off along with the current dimensions I drew.
