    Utility Trailer Axle

    It will probably cost you about 15,00$ to 25,00$ per side. And if you plan for long distance trip, I would suggest to carry and extra kit, or even a complete hub with bearing.

    Post Pic's of your Jeep

    It does look nice, so yes, take it as a compliment! Do not know if it the size on the rocks on what it sits and the medium tall grass around. Add a 108" cb antena and there you go! :) :)

    Steampunk

    I see this more as dieselpunk than ratrod! But I do agree with the seets! And safety wise, I would never agree to get a new to me car, with lower seets like that. Maybe the paramedic in me do not like whiplash to the cervical vertebrae to take a risk like that. But nive looking!

    MaineFarmer Trailer Build.

    As for the tongue placement, I agree, that is a lot of tork on that piece on 2x2 to prevent twisting and well failure. As for the axle placement, seems like you are planing for something in front, water tank or something?? That will balance the weigt?

    What did you do to your Expo Jeep today?

    In our case, we do not go for yearly inspection, just for clunkers or after total or after a year w/o being register. And no emission, only safety. So no lift or mod. So you want to keep it registered.
