Soo....
I bought this trailer from another Expo member and Fellow land rover defender owner..
http://www.expeditionportal.com/for...with-contractor-top-rack?highlight=contractor
It's an M101a1 with a contractor hard top on it...
I'm not really going to do a build thread, but more of a pictures of what i've done
(if your interested, the "Build" is over at Defender source.)
http://www.defendersource.com/forum/f48/car-camping-trailer-68162.html
I'm building this primarily to take my 2 young daughters camping with me, and for events when i need to carry more more stuff (Like kegs, group food, bikes, etc..) and for when i'm alone to sleep in at events instead of messing with the whole tent thing.. I'm not sure how that will work out but i'll give it a go and see..
basically its a cargo/Junior Teardrop trailer concept which is reasonably inexpensive when compared to the offerings - I'm not trying to be the go anywhere do any thing trailer guy.. Although it does have more ground clearance that the D90 and 35"s right now..
So here we go..
