I would agree with most everything said. I can say that stock suspension and steel skids WILL lose some clearance. Those things are heavy! I have a Baja rack and it was great when I used my RTT on Fj but otherwise the wind noise was to irritating so I took it off.
I ran a spacer lift for about...
Barlowrs, that's commendable and more than I can ask. Looking forward to your response.
Where in Baja are you going? I'm wanting to go to Mexico during Christmas break for a day or two so probably just go to puerto since I will be alone.
barlowrs....$200!? Why do you hate me? ;)
Hey...I see you have HAM and say you are learning to use it. Do you listen to the WIN system much? I hear a LOT of California guys talking. I'm a newb too so I am listening a lot. I will listen for your call sign.Maybe we can talk sometime.
OK...back...
Here is what you need if you want park and electric brakes:

Each side has a unique part number so be aware of that if you order.
Nicks had the best price I found. My local dealer wanted twice that.
I second that brakes are never a bad idea...
Resurrecting this thread as I have been hunting one of these. Anyone know what the current status is other than what the site says? I did send an email so I will post anything I hear from them. Seems like there is a demand for these things...
Nice! When/where do you plan to take it on its maiden voyage?
Mine just got its maiden voyage this weekend to Chimney Rock. Have you been there?
Its definitely a learning curve with a trailer on the back. Cant go near as fast on bumpy roads! But otherwise it did really well. I plan to...
I like it! What are the plans for it? I'm in Vail and am working on my M416 also. Hoping to take it out for a shakedown run with AZFJ the first weekend of October.
What are those plates on the pintle hook? A lockout perhaps? Seems like a good idea if so.
Wish you the best!
Thanks guys! Great posts! Some good advice for sure. I'm glad you mentioned "other than family" because I was wondering about that. Also, what are the deodorizer gel packs? (Something specific to the PETT or general household stuff? )
OK, I searched but haven't found anyone talking about this so I guess I will "throw" it out there:
How many times do you use your WAG bag? Once? Twice? Till its full? Maybe you say: "Yellow? Let it mellow. Brown? Flush it down!"
Hey! I dont know!
I have yet to use this thing. I want the...
I agree that these trailers are not perfect but nothing is. I don't have the time nor desire to reinvent the wheel right now. Teardrops are cool but they are too small for me and what I want to do. And, I like old cars so the design of the m416 appeals to me for that reason too.
To the...
Looks great! I have the same brake and axle set up. Have you tackled the parking brake cable yet? I sent pics and an email to a place that makes e brake cables but no response yet. I'm hoping to get new cables rather than try to figure out how to use the original M416 cable.
Also, which rear...
