Spare Tire Carrier Up until now the spare tire had resided inside the trailer. This was never an issue since our kitchen set up was in the back of the JK and we didn't need the space. The new owner had other plans and commissioned us to build a spare tire carrier. I needed to reinforce...

Wider Fenders A year or so ago we purchased a set of fenders from Jason over at Manley. When we purchased No. 183 my plan had been to move the tires and rims from him over to Pepe and keep the matching tires and wheels to use down the road. Being that the backspacing was different on the new...

Lengthened Tongue and a New Home Well... Word of our purchase of No. 183 spread quickly and without advertising Pepe quickly found his way to a new home dubbed "Elvis". Prior to his departure there were a few things that had to be done to make him ready for his new owner. I'll highlight...

Well... I didn't see that one coming. :)

Two answer both questions above the Bosch and Gems Engine would require a different cam. The cam that is included has the distributor drive gear on the front for use with a 3.5 / 3.9 front engine cover. I can price a different cam if you are interested.

I basically have everything you need to stroke and rebuild a 4.0 to make it a 4.6 including cam and crank pulley spacer to use 3.9 front cover. All parts with exception of crank and rods were purchased from Turner Engineering and are in new condition. 4.6 Crank (machine shop said it would...

Great build Paul! I usually hang out with the Jeep and Trailer guys, didn't know what I was missing over here in the Yota section. ;)

Indie, Thanks for the kind comments. I do plan on towing with the max coupler in the extended position. I will probably slide it in when I have the trailer parked in the shop so I don't bang my leg on it. :) Nice clean design work there at Arco ;) Cheers

Man look at all that empty space. Imagine what I could do with all that room. :) Good choice switching to .125 ;)

Thanks Kc, those are the tent rails that AT makes for the horizon. We moved the Eezi Awn from Pepe over to it. I plan to install a pull out table under the rack just haven't decided which to go with. They all look pretty flimsy online. I'd like to see them in person or get some feedback from...

Our first modification to the trailer was to lengthen the tongue so that the rear door on the JK would clear the nose box. I began taking measurements to determine how much longer the tongue would need to be. 5 1/2" was the minimum required for the door to clear. With a few more...

Xrunner, Given it's condition I think we made a very good purchase ;)

I'll stick to the more technical side of this thread and leave the story telling to Brandy. She's a more creative writer. Here are a few images from our return trip home ;) No. 183 somewhere in the Pike Nation Forest. We spent the golden hours hiking and shooting Garden of the gods...

Nice. Welcome to the club. PS: I've got dibs on your lunette ;)
