Great Site wish I found it sooner

[Ca. Bowhunter]

Hello,

This place is great I just found it today. I'm just finishing a project made from a 40 mm ammo can that I got from work . With a few whisky sours and advice from all the wrong friends this is what I built. I will be stopping by alot.

That is a super cool build. Now, lets see some pictures of the suspension. I saw some blue coils under that in one of the pictures. Details please.

Do you have a build thread on another forum that you could share with us?

Welcome to the Portal.

Thanks for the good words I was a little worried about posting it here because there are some very cool trailers on this site.
On to the trailer I built a swing arm system and used a couple of Fab Tech springs I had laying around from a S-10 lift I did years ago. I have never built a swing arm so this is all new to me and to date it has worked very well. I have shocks for it but so far I have not needed them in the high speed field tests that has been completed.
We are taking it out to the desert tomorrow and drag it over a few obstacles and shoot a few clay pigeons while were there.

You picked up your empty shells, right?

Sweet trailer! Are those boxes easy to find, or did you get lucky and knew you stumbled upon something good?

 

[Ca. Bowhunter]

Of coarse we pick them up what would you use to reload?
The box's came from my work place we tested them Vibration,Shock and Environmental (i.e. Humidity,Rain,Sand and Dust). When the testing was complete our customer did not want the test remains and ask if we would dispose of them. Now were do you suppose they could have gone.

Welcome to the Expo. Nice build. The trailer is sweet. But I need info on the Cherokee too. That's a sweet looking Jeep!

:victory: Man, that is one-of-a-kind and a good job--

--You may want to get rid of that "ball hitch" set-up !!

--Do you know how much it weighs ???

--I can see that baby is set up for Berrata and Remington --

--Man that clay slinger off the back hitch set-up is PRIMO-

--My trailer has that rear hitch, but I haven't used it for BIRDS--

--Great job-Bowhunter
