Sounds like you know that there isn't enough tongue weight, I made a frame for a cooler on the tongue and added a cj7 tire carrier on the back, I haven't had any issues towing it, but I did extend the tongue by several feet. Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk

I took the old spare tire carrier from my cj7 and welded it directly to the uprights for my RTT frame. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

1st trip went great with the new rack and spare tire carrier. I believe that I need to raise the tent a few more inches to get the annex a little higher, but it works very well as is. A few pictures of the trip: Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

I've been working on it for a few weeks now after owning it for several years, my welding skills are improving slowly but surely. Going to make a trip to the Carolina Full Size Jeep East Coast Invasion in Uwharrie next week. Just built telescoping rack and put on spare tire carrier from my cj7...

Any info on your rack would be helpful also, is it telescoping?

Very stable, I had through bolted it to the tub. I have recently taken it off, to turn it around, so that my annex will work better, I found some clamps on another site that someone else has used, I'm going to try them, I didn't want to drill any more holes into the tub, it wasn't as simple as...

Very nice, ever wire boats?;)

I went the cheap route until I can build a lid and telescoping rack, cheap Amazon rack for the win. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

Sorry to hear about that end of chapter in your life, the memories will bring you a smile in the future I'm sure.

Very nice, reminds me of my trailer, my tongue extension is very much like yours, where someone bolted 3 inch tubing after cutting the original lunette. I just bolted on a new longer 3x3 tube to it. I really like the lid, very nice, gave me some ideas.

If it was mine, I would pull the tub off and get the frame and suspension cleaned up and painted, probably replace the springs and shocks for starters. These trailers were built to be abused, and likely have been during their life, as such, all the components are probably up to the task of...

Looks great, do you mind posting the spring #'s... pretty sure I need some new ones for my 416.

Wow, awesome build, very envious.

Looks great so far, I am an AMC man myself, the 258 is a great engine. Looking forward to more posts.

It seems to have alot of the desired FSJ stuff, driveline wise, but J20's did from the factory. Mileage on the 360 would dictate price, as well as interior. It didn't come with power seats, so that isn't original. It looks like a 7-8k truck to me, depending on how much rot it has... and the...

Incredible, looks like something off of Star Wars

Yes, you have to make sure that everything is lying flat... the topper moved on my first attempt, and I couldn't close it well at all, but after re-opening it and straightening it out, it closed fine and I'm sure I could have left bedding up there.

Awesome setup, exactly what I am hoping for whenever I finish... Thanks for all the info.

Mine folded fine with a 2" foam mattress topper, so I would think that it would be fine with sleeping bags/blankets. I honestly believe that I could fold it with sleeping bags in it now as well.

I really enjoy your videos, just wondering how much extra gas you carry, having a fsj really doesn't help in the mileage department.... Beautiful country, I have to get out west at some point.
