    Tandem axle load equalizers. LCI Equa Flex vs CRE3000

    I owned a pair of nice 5200 dexter torsions and they have there place, but read enough on this forum to decide on leaf springs. On top of the things learned, I couldn't mix and match axles and springs using torsions. Im sure in my travels I will completely unload one axle some day.. Two...

    Tandem axle load equalizers. LCI Equa Flex vs CRE3000

    Yes I'm over estimating, but better safe than sorry.. I also want 8 lug 16"rims on the trailer. The trailer itself is around 3000. I figured 1500 for two worst case street bikes, but I usually take DRZ's. Adding 835 for the water then only needs another 1500 of gear/tools/crap to reach 7000...

    Small full-featured hard-sided stock trailers modified for slow off-pavement trips: surprisingly rare

    7' 8" or 92" isn't wider than my mirrors, but I need 7' box for a queen mattress.. A 7' wide enclosed trailer usually gets the same axle as the 8', so why get 7' unless its a narrow track with wheel wells imo. I figure if your trailer wheel track width measures 84" or 7' of real estate (my...

    Small full-featured hard-sided stock trailers modified for slow off-pavement trips: surprisingly rare

    I like what you've done with your X-139 profdant139.. I also like how its only as wide as your truck unlike many trailers with ugly fenders sticking out instead of wheel wells.. Nice quality trailer, but its wider than a full size truck with those fenders hanging out..

    Tandem axle load equalizers. LCI Equa Flex vs CRE3000

    Hey everyone.. I'm having a custom 7x16 narrow track enclosed trailer built so I have the ability to specify almost anything.. Since I'm installing two 50 gallon water tanks and the trailer will be packed with as much glamping gear I can stuff in plus a few motorcycles, Ive decided to install...

    Im also researching water tanks and need 100 gallons for my 7x16 trailer. I want them under the floor. Sure would be nice to find and buy some premade 50 gallon tanks that were designed to set between floor joists..

    I'm having a custom trailer built, and the builder will install any window I supply them. Is this the site to order these windows from? adventuretrailers.com because I don't see them..

    Suggestions for my 7x16 single axle toyhauler build.

    It is allot of water and if I plan on camping by a stream, I wouldn't fill it until I arrived. Hot water is one thing my GF and I wont give up after a wet cold ride. A good hot shower in the middle of nowhere is unbelievable and she has long hair. We easily blew through 100 gallons in a week...

    Suggestions for my 7x16 single axle toyhauler build.

    Morning everyone. I finally found a outfit who will build me the trailer I want, how I want. Jensen Trailers in Humboldt Iowa (three hours away) said they would build me a 7x16 single axle "narrow track" enclosed trailer with 7' ceiling, extended tongue, V nose, RV door/screen and two RV...

    No Boundaries NOBO by Forest River

    To bad the short 16.5 version's weren't outfitted with a narrow axle and wheel wells like the larger 7'4" wide 19.5's. How wide are the boxes? Specs say 96" or 8' total, but thats with the goofy fenders. Id buy one if fenderless, even though I want a toyhauler that size, but I now see the...

    Driven To Wander - Vancouver to Patagonia

    Watching that vid gives me the shivers, as I lost a buddy and his wife under frog rock on the Arkansas in colorado. rip Your pictures really captured my imagination, especially when I saw Fitz Roy. I'm a Iowa flat lander born in Austria and must have roots in the Alps because Im drawn. Fitz...

    Driven To Wander - Vancouver to Patagonia

    Beautiful. Nice truck.. Since you don't have a wet bath, I suggest everclear. A splash really freshens things up, but my scalp starts itching if I don't shower. Can you find a shower at least once a week? And could you have towed a small narrow camper most of the places you've driven?

    WTB: Moby1 XTR and/or Go Fast Camper for Ram 1500

    Most cars don't have stepside fenders anymore. They have wheel wells. Fenders on trailers are a waste of space only used to make them cheaper. Imagine a extra 1.5' of box width on that trailer. Id gladly give up the step for more interior space with the same wheel track width. .

    Pop top atv trailer

    Looks like a great project! Id love to have something like this, but in the 6.5 x 16 sizish.. Ive noticed these sizes are available, in australia. I'm guessing the pop top was added because of low clearance where your going, it might be a challenge to build. Good luck Here's another..No...

    Why fenders instead of wheel wells?

    Yes. As long as I can drive cumberland pass in colorado as a bench mark, I'm good. Don't let the video's mislead you as there are some tight and steep switchbacks on that road. Understood. I have a quote from featherlite for a 7x16 single axle for around 10k, but I'm glad Ive drug my feet...
