Morris Mule trailer build

Picked up a Morris Mule trailer and thought I would start a thread to show the customizations I end up doing over time. To start a few driveway shoots of stock.

Any updates on how well the trailer is doing? Any leaking around the top?

I bought this from Stopbit earlier in the year and took it to the Expo West event.

Trailer is "ok", IMO. It's well-built, but the top does, indeed, leak. And it leaks heavily. Upon inspection, i t appears the seals have gaps. I'm going to replace them, eventually, maybe (if I keep it).

It's quite bouncy on the highway. Loaded or not. That irritates me.

I have my Autohome pop-up on top of it and it is very steady when I'm sleeping in it.

There is lots of room for storage, though I have everything in water-tight containers, due to the water issue.

I may or may not keep it. I'm kinda not into the trailer thing, as it turns out. Lol.

Pics of current setup, below.

That is a neat setup. My Manley M416 bounces alot too unloaded or loadeded but I haven't messed with reducing tire pressure or going to a lighter capacity torsion spring axel. Maybe that would do the trick.

I also have a morris mule, and actually have not had any issues with leaking water (Both parked, and highway cruising). Weird thing is, I do get alot of dust inside of it though.

Regarding the bounciness, I "reduced" mine while unloaded with tire pressures (running them around 25psi empty). But Overall I'm very happy with it, great platform to modify and custom build it.
