    Please do, and include pictures of the good and bad (hopefully there's no bad). I want to hear your opinion after you've used it a few times.

    Alternative to ARB fridge slide

    Doesn't look like they come cheap; hard to find one under $300 doing a google search. http://www.equipt1.com/item/travel-box-fridge-slide http://www.alphaexpedition.com/universal-40l-50l-fridge-slide/ Maybe you could go to Home Depot (or Lowe's) and check out their kitchen cabinetry section...

    My little Harbor Freight trailer build

    QUOTE=screwball48;2263099]This has been one of my favorite trailers for a while. Any plans to change or upgrade it in the near future? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Thanks. It has been a fun project, and definitely has earned its keep. The trailer is essentially an aluminum box bolted...

    My little Harbor Freight trailer build

    (see previous post) We brought two Tent-Cots on our trip to Canada (double sized from Cabela's). When we got back, I mounted one on the roof of the trailer. It is my little poor-boy's RTT. I had to have a cover made, so with what the tent-cot costs and the cost of the cover, I could have...

    My little Harbor Freight trailer build

    Last year (mid-2016) we took the little trailer up to Canada. We ran the Dempster Highway and had a ball. Here are a few pictures of the trailer and scenery. It pulled beautifully, and it is amazing how much you can put in a little HF 4' trailer based adventure trailer. The only issue we had...

    Boat trailer into utility trailer

    A lot of times boat trailers have fairly small and weak axles (and small tires). Boats may be what we think of as "big", but they don't weigh as much as you'd think. Just something to pay attention to. Otherwise, they make good staring points for a little adventure-type trailer.

    Just how ridiculous was this trailer purchase?

    Sometimes less-is-more. Plus you got the solar panels and wired for a battery? Score! Looks like a great starting-off point for a little adventure trailer. Should be easy enough to cut off the current tongue and weld in a longer piece of 2" receiver tubing to your length.

    Trailer fender flares

    I hadn't thought of that; that might be an option. I'm not wanting new fenders right now (truth be told - I'm looking for an inexpensive option initially).

    Trailer fender flares

    I recently added some larger tires and rims to my trailer, and now the tires stick out from under the fenders. Anyone have any ideas or places to get flares for these kind of fenders (picture attached)? I don't want it to look tacky.

    Mounting sand ladders?

    My trailer is ready for them when I finally get around to purchasing two pair. I think it is a perfect place to mount them if you've got the clearance.

    Sleeping in Walmart parking lot with roof top tent

    I really like Cabela's. I have their credit card which I use as my only sole credit card for purchases (earns me reward money to buy more stuff at Cabela's). I'm literally sitting here typing this wearing a Cabela's sweater and shoes from Cabela's. I am a Cabelian!

    Denver Outfitters - OverRoam RTT

    I haven't been back to Brockton (or Massachusetts) since 1995 when my Dad and I took a trip up there. In 1968 he packed up Mom and us five kids (I was seven at the time) to Florida and never looked back. He got tired of the winters up there, and one February he and Mom flew to Florida for my...

    Denver Outfitters - OverRoam RTT

    You're welcome. I totally agree with you - a website should be text and grammar perfect. It is a reflection of their attention to detail and professed level of quality they insist upon. Get a high-school English teacher to give it a final once-over before making it public. I've caught...

    Denver Outfitters - OverRoam RTT

    Dude, if someone is going to mention typos on someone's dealer website, then their post pointing it out should be typo and error free. He states (referring to the text typos from the Denver website) "it's also the easiest thing to get right", but his own short post is filled with typos and...

    Denver Outfitters - OverRoam RTT

    Do you mean "quality conscious" (you forgot the "s" in conscious)? And "vs" usually has a period after it ("vs."). I think you meant to say "a minor point but" (not "buy"). And I can never keep "its" vs. "it's" straight without thinking about it first, but I think you got it right on the...

    Denver Outfitters - OverRoam RTT

    It (Denver tent) is only about $500 cheaper than the small Auto Home Maggiolina Extreme RTT; but that's in white (add another $400 if you want the Maggiolina in black like the Denver tent comes-in). The size of the Denver tent is essentially the same size as the Maggiolina small-sized RTTs...

    Just My Opinion - Why Have a Trailer You Can't Sleep In?!

    1. It would take a larger trailer than I'd care to pull to fit my 6'1" 210lb body (and that's just me; add my wife and I need even more space). 2. If I'm sleeping inside the trailer, then I need to find a place to put all my gear while I'm sleeping. 3. My Jeep's a four cylinder and is...

    Off-road limitations of a 2" ball coupler?

    I'm running a lunette ring (which slides into a 2" receiver mounted on the front of my trailer) and pintle hitch, and have never thought of it as noisy. What did make noise at one time was the lunette ring thingy rotating up and down on the receiver pin and hitting the inside the receiver...
