    Smittybilt Overland XL RTT-New product.

    I don't have any close up picture - all it is a small (maybe 5 inch) section of the zipper in a corner that does not fully close. Otherwise seems to fit perfectly, I didn't have to make any mods. It's a regular xl annex. Honestly I don't think I would like the ruggedized version as this one is...

    I had a small scratch / dent on the kitchen side door when I unpacked the trailer at home. Local 4WP replaced the door for me with no issues. I think for you it's an issue of "inconvenience " - Smittybilt will probably offer to replace the damaged parts but you may have to wait for a while. You...

    Hi ArcticCat, Did you get the tiles online or locally? I wanted to cover most of the top of the main box with rubber but could not find a glue backed product around here and did not want permanent bolt on installation. I find the original paint scratches/peals off very easily - I had to do touch...

    I installed Air Lift air bags in the rear springs of my jeep but I had slightly different reasons for it; I don't have heavy batteries in the tongue box but when I travelled with my family of four + dog and trailer attached I think I was pushing the recommended payload of the jeep over the "red...

    Partner stove Update on stove vs. drawer situation. I got my Partner 18" stove delivered recently; the good news is it came with hose fitting on the right side (without me asking for it - strange because most pictures online show the stove with left side fitting) so it fits well in the drawer...

    Smittybilt Overland XL RTT-New product.

    Now that's a penthouse suite 😉 Congratulations, you can probably just put a block of wood or anything else solid enough under the end of the ladder since ladder is not taking the weight of occupants anyway. Problem I found with having a tent so high up is opening the overhang and...

    Now I understand why my kid was catching small rocks on his lap while sitting in the back seat of the Jeep (with roof removed) :Wow1: Maybe I should make my boys wear helmets next time we hit the road this way - it's easier to fix the trailer than the kid :oops:

    Smittybilt Overland XL RTT-New product.

    Hi Wynn, as you mentioned it offers pretty good value for the money where you can have the whole set up (trailer, tent, awning, fridge and few other things) in sub 10k range. It's not a lightweight trailer (once filled with all the goodies mine should be pushing 3000 lbs) but it's towing well...

    On the topic of rust - I just came back from couple trips that involved extended gravel type logging road travel. Once I managed to clean the trailer I noticed that fenders and I'm sure some other areas are covered in tiny paint chips from flying rocks. Also I can tell you that any rack tubing...

    Annex for Overlander XL Hi everyone, I was recently able to solve the longstanding question that was posted here a while ago - no, Smittybilt still does not offer an annex for the XL model but Tepui Autana XL (Gran Sabana) annex fits almost perfectly. Size is slightly off (SB is 4 inches wider)...

    Scout trailer build north of the border Hi guys, This is just a short introduction as I've been reading this post for a while now but did not have a chance to contribute to it so far. I ordered the "no wheels" package at the beginning of the summer but between 6 week wait and my holidays I only...
