Thanks for the link, but you might want to double check it. Says they don't make them any more.
Thank you
No solar or battery. There is a heavy duty battery jumper on front and rear bumper of my FJ40 for jump starting purposes. When the trailer is attached, I plug into that and it powers everything. Even if we go for a trail run, the fridge still stays cold while we're gone and I plug in when we get back.

Absolutely stunning build on both!!! Thank you for posting this. Your build is a template for my trailer build! Did you use a MIG welder? Thank you! Also, your pictures are on POINT!

Went to Cruise Moab 2 weeks ago and had a great time! Trailer did awsome! Cool shot of it at Toquerville Falls in UT on the way home-
I have since decided to sell my FJ40. It was a sad day shipping it off, but it will allow more fun projects to come my way.
Yesterday I mounted new tires and wheels on the trailer to match my wife's 4Runner. That will be our new camping setup. Time to start doing a few small projects on that!
Surely not as cool as an FJ40 with a camp trailer, but we will use it more often and for longer distances. The lifted, short wheel base of an FJ40 isn't conducive to long road trips. I really look forward to getting out more and exploring with the 4Runner.

Nice limited! I threw some Wheelers t13 rear coils for 1.5 lift and Bilstein 6112s for a bit over 2" lift up front and it rides GLORIOUS. Wife approved as well which is what counts. Your trailer design is working out so great for me lol.

Wow, hard to believe you sold the FJ it had to be one of the nicest out there. I can understand the more use out of the Runner though. We do the same with our JK over the CJ. Especially long distances.

This trailer is everything I've ever wanted. I saw you post you'd do it again - interested in making another for a customer?
