    Very nice. Brand? Link to vendor? Not finding a lot with a search for "klep"

    Expo Trailer Electrical System Question

    How do you see install this in a typical Harbor Freight tongue box situation? I can't imagine that cover being weather proof, but perhaps you have another mounting option in mind?

    M416 Hybrid

    No worries, thread titles are no biggie. People search for things and wade thru the results to see what interests them. Trailer is uniquely yours - you did a great job and you're out in the world enjoying it. Nice!

    Price check please

    Fixed the link - there's one on that page for $35,000. Anther looks extremely clean up for auction that's left-hand drive. I'd take an average of the FJ prices, take some percentage off for their expected profit, then add back for the diesel. You may end up in the avg. FJ range in the end.

    Price check please

    Your GoogleFu is weak... Anywhere from $35,000-80,000 depending on how well it's been restored (this one certainly looks nice). In case your wondering the BJ40 is the diesel version of the gas powered FJ40. Source...

    My little M416, finished tonight.

    Steal one more idea - just put 12 volt bulbs in the housings and your're done. It's standard bulb, similar if not identical to the ones found on CJ/YJ/YJ Jeeps. Take a 24 volt to your local auto supply store and tell them you want to the 12 volt version.

    Wish we had a like button... I'm old, but that's Old School and works very well. ;-)

    Tire pressure questM416 type trailer with Jeep wheels for long distance highway trip.

    I'd start off with whatever the tire calls for on the sidewall. If the trailer gets too bouncy, you can always lower the pressure. Higher pressure == better gas mileage on a long trip.

    Trailer Lid hinge: which side to mount them, pros & cons?

    There's an example of that here on Expo, but I don't have a link to it. Hinge pins were removable. Sent from my HP-41C during a flashback to 1978.

    Trailer Lid hinge: which side to mount them, pros & cons?

    #1. Yep. #2. LOL. If your tow vehicle has a swing away tailgate, then can jackknife the trailer 90* and get a little more work space at camp. Mine swings right so driver mounted hinges means I'd jackknife left. YMMV... Sent from my HP-41C during a flashback to 1978.

    Kitchen Kit/Chuck Box

    That's actually a new one, but yea you'd want to look on .ca. Does Craigslist operate in CA? It's more of a local thing. Sent from my HP-41C during a flashback to 1978.

    Kitchen Kit/Chuck Box

    Pelican mod for sure - baggage handler rated, water/air tight, extension handle, roller wheels, bullet-proof [sic]. I got a few 1650's off eBay or CL for under $100 each, bought a generic organizer kit and here's a proof of concept. For a sense of scale, that's a king-sized bed.

    Current articulating hitch ideas?

    There are also pintles that mount to a 2" receiver, so that's an option.
