Love my all aluminum....no rust & lightweight. Love my Timbren Axle-Less. All is costly, but this is going to last a long long time.

Suggestions from my own build. Removable tongue so you can use a regular trailer coupler or a max coupler. Also is good for keeping empty to help prevent theft. There is a jack mount on every corner so I can level it just about anywhere by lifting the tires off the ground. Rear trailer...

It seems that most of my camping is done in inclement, freezing weather (in Northern Alberta Canada). So anything that can ice up and freeze is not going to work (zippers, awning rail, etc). So I did what you are going to do. Put a number of stainless eye screws along the sides of the...

I had a look at the one on the Intech Flyer.... looks like something not made to last. A plastic snap-on cover. I think I will try the superbright or https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07MZ51Z1Z/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?smid=A3B1HIKEICFRGA&psc=1

I just re-read the title...it should say Flood lights (not floor lights). I like both the amazon and the lights from superbright, although the latter comes with a good base gasket. Also, the superbright website has a lot of good materials for installation including cable tie holders, hole...

Its a nice small light....but at $123.49 CDN plus taxes per light, 4 of them is over $500. A bit pricey.

Does anyone have any suggestions for a quality (preferably aluminum) exterior surface mount led flood light that I can mount on the side and rear of my offroad toyhauler. Prefer if it was aerodynamic / surface mount and, of course, must be very water resistant. Something similar to the...

I am planning on using gas springs to assist in the lifting and then holding up the pop-up portion of my trailer. I imagine the pop-top will weigh no more than 60lbs. Two questions. First. Should I place two gas springs on the front and two gas springs on the rear of the trailer, or should I...

Waveslider.....thank you so much. EXACTLY what I was looking for and aluminum to boot! Never thought about looking on the e-trailer site....and I am a repeat customer of e-trailer. Again thanks.

Underside of table

I would like to place a table on the outside of my trailer similar to the attached. Does anyone know where I could purchase the "plastic" buttons that are used to hold up the table? which would stay affixed to the trailer?

Does anyone know of a source for the folding gas struts that are used on the Air Top RTT? Although I have not seen these in action, they look very suitable for my purpose

Drain plugs is a really great idea that I had not thought of. Thanks. As for the top crossed hinges, I think I am going to use hydraulic lifters similar to the attached. Has anyone any thoughts on the installation of the lifters....positioning, angle, etc.

Does anyone have a flooring material they can recommend that is lighter than 5/8" fir plywood (approx 2lbs per square foot). Maximum span is 29" x 29". Max weight in that 29" square is 200lbs (me standing).

ATV's are Yamaha Grizzly 550 and 700. Towing capacity is 1322 lbs. We tow utility trailers to our remote Moose camps every year. Two years ago my trailer, coming back, held a moose, two deer, and a bear. So well over 1500 lbs. But fairly flat terrain, but muddy.
