The tub is almost exactly 4'x6', add a foot with tailgate dropped for 7'.
I wouldn't try to fit a larger tent to this trailer; just too much material to account for. I plan to add 2 removable planks down each side, that will slip into the rail pockets. This should give the added foot or so...
Very cool little trailers. The axle and tongue are actually original David Bradley; found some write-ups on them online. Interesting history.
Tent worked better than expected. If I don't go with a RTT I will do a few tweaks to make the tent fit even better. Tough to beat $100 for a...
Completed my new aluminum tailgate cargo rack (only 10 lbs) and installed an additional Rotopax mount to the passenger side rail; added a second 8 gallon Rotopax fuel pack to the lower mount and moved water to the upper mount. Water packs are still lower than the roofline. Getting ready for...
It is pretty funny. My buddies named it. They say, "If you want to know what new parts are available, check "The Catalog" not the book. My mod list is insane; even to me. I would never show the wife/"Warden" the list. LOL
Highly recommend Rotopax. I used the water packs all Summer, and single 4 gallon fuel twice this Summer, just on local trips. Look forward to adding another 4 gallon fuel, or two 2 gallon fuel packs within the month.
Sounds like you have a good plan for mounting yours.

Thanks

Thanks for the compliment. My plan was to built it stronger than I will use it - beyond reliable. It is going to make a great adventure rig, when I get it slowly expo made-over.
Not much progress on the trailer lately; too busy using it to end the Summer.
Picked up 3 simple cheap wagon wheel style rims off Craigslist; Bedlined them. Should be on tomorrow.
Will start the teardown process for sandblasting soon.
Sold Poly Performance Baja Basket last week. It was larger than I wanted or needed.
Started plan to install a spare Rotopax Universal Mount Plate on the Bestop Tailgate Rack, along with a simple small grate or tray. Plan on adding another 4 gallon fuel pack; moving the water pack to the top...
Installed Delta Quad Bar Headlights

Both installed
Deltas and Rigid Duallys, as fogs/driving lights
Touched-up rock rail paint, from 4 years of abuse.
Washed and vacuumed the beast; been awhile
