    416/M101cdn Body Lift/Raised Fenders?

    Also his trailer is an AT chaser,, If you want clearance,, you can do a SOA,, but before that,, I recommend if its an old 416 getting a new set of springs, it will raise it up a couple inches,, or better yet,, get a 2.5" lift spring from early(pre 75) cj5, or cj2a cj3a,, and you will have more...

    Towing with a TJ or LJ....

    I have towed with my tj,, when I still had it,, I did not trust the bumpers for bigger trailers as they were made for cargo and not the stresses of towing a trailer. Ask the fabricator of the bumper for his input. A good fabricator should be able to make a rear bumper that can be used for...

    M416: can I convert...?

    They do make a spacer that will do this.. I was going to get then as I had a set of gambler wheels from a tj.. ended up selling the wheels instead.. I'm going to get a new axle with the right pattern that I need. its close to the same $ as spacers.

    The Goony Bird

    Thats odd,, the neons that I have seen all had heat,, no fridge,, but the frigde would have to be so small if built in I'd rather a good fridge.. and The one I looked at had a sink also,, just the pump handle,, no pressure.. It be easy to add these things tho.. and if done right would be better...

    6 lug hubs?

    I've priced out the adapters for these,, they end up being very thick and I do believe the 6 bolt had to be a two piece.. I like the idea of electric brakes and keeping the p-brake.. or you could go with the AT kit for ind. suspension.. from the pics it looks great..

    6 lug hubs?

    That should have the large dust cap that almost covers to the rim.. This would be the floater type.. I have not seen any drums to convert that axle.. Your best bet would be picking up a new axle from a place like trailerparts.com in the right width.. You can get the spring perchs taped to the...

    6 lug hubs?

    Depending on what year the 416 is,, if its newer and has the normal axle type set-up,, or the older(most are this way) floater style,, same sized inner and outter bearing.. the older style haven't seen any hubs that will fit.. but the newer style can be done at any good trailer supply,, those...

    trailer suspension

    On the 116 the spring perches are quiet robust.. would it be possible to make a trailing arm/control arm to mount to the front perch and use that to locate the axle.. Kinda like the guys do with the airbag conversions on the ricer trucks?

    Trailer lights

    I like the grommet mount as that is what my company used on our big trailers. The sales guys back the trailers into bushes, hillsides, dumpsters,, you name it,, they will pop into the frame before braking.. The solid mount ones shatter.. Our old style(non led) bulbs go out all the time,, one...

    found what looks like a bantam T3 trailer...

    If the lunette can be saved, the frame isnt rotted thru,, and the spring mounts are still good,, I'd say its worth the 3 bills.. you could part it out and be ahead just selling the lunette assembly(if complete).. and you could always blast it cut off the bed,, and get the panels and rebuild it...

    Sushi

    Or a cappuccino and a shot of Bailey's... The redbull and vodka taste great but,, you do have to watch how much you drink,, you become a wide awake drunk.. also they say its hard on the heart if you overdo it.. I had about 1/2 a 5th and 5 redbulls one night drinking till dawn,, I had the worst...

    How about the panels they used in the body of the early turtle exp. ford camper. That stuff from nida? nivda? something like that? plastic honeycomb covered with a fiber that gets covered with resin to make it stiff.. very light and very strong.. Also $$$ I assume,, but if your not using large...
