    My Taxa Cricket mod/build...

    After getting the trailer home and going over it with a fine tooth comb there are a few issues I need them to fix. I think the axle mounts need more reinforcement. They used a thick piece of steel angle (see pic above) to move them further outboard for clearance. This is not a mounting option...

    My Taxa Cricket mod/build...

    I enlisted the help of a local trailer manufacturer, http://www.trailermadetrailers.com. They build stout, steel trailers for moving heavy equipment as well as frames for tiny houses, along with custom work. Interestingly, they might be getting into tear drop builds as they had one going and...

    My Taxa Cricket mod/build...

    I started with a 2015 Cricket, not sure if it was the Camp or Trek edition or some other iteration but it has dual 12v batteries and is prewired for solar with a large Zamp panel, fresh and grey water tanks with 12v pump, small electric water heater and Dometic sink inside. Also came with large...

    FS-Taxa Cricket trailer frame-Denver, CO

    Want someone to recycle this thing, even if it's just for the wheels, brakes and axle and scrap metal for the rest. I bought a Taxa Cricket but the frame leaves a little to be desired for more serious off road adventures so I'm having a custom frame built. I have the old frame which will go to...

    LC deck plate for storage

    Here's a quick pic. You can see three bolts along the front of the plate and two in the rear corners. That's where I bolted to factory tie down locations. There are 4 holes on the passenger side that have the t-nuts on the opposite side where I bolt the drawer down. I plan to add some airline...
