    My adventure trailer

    Good point. The only advantage to having the bucket outside is if I'm by a clean stream. It much easier to fill.

    My adventure trailer

    Thanks. The only time I have the table inside is if its raining. It's a little tight inside with the table. Just enough room to sit and eat if its raining.

    My adventure trailer

    Thanks so much. I'm actually working on another project now. My wife says I have too much time on my hands, and that I need another project. :)

    My adventure trailer

    Thanks. I'm actually the one that did the copying. Quicksilver makes the same trailer for jeep, but does not have the cook box option. That part was my ideas. Theirs is probably more rugged than mine, but very heavy. Kevin

    My adventure trailer

    I didn't put a water tank in the trailer to save weight. I carry water in my tow rig. I have a bucket I fill with water containers that the pump draws water into. The sink is also plumed with hot water. A lot of times I'm camping near water so it's very easy to keep the bucket topped off. I...

    My adventure trailer

    I bet it is less than 1000 lbs. I never feel the trailer, even in technical steep sections. I went light weight because the last trailer I had was too heavy. I was on a steep trail one day and could not pull the trailer up a small wet technical section. I was in a real pickle because I could...

    My adventure trailer

    Took me about a year to complete, and I thought I'd post some pics of my finished product. It's been over Cinnamon Pass, Engineer Pass, and many other trails in Colorado. I took a part a small Quicksilver trailer and mounted it on a new frame, then build a custom kitchen to go on the front...

    Quicksilver expedition trailer.

    Thanks for the compliment. Right now I am working on a cooking box that sits on the front. It's coming out pretty cool. I'll post pics soon.

    Why aren't popup's more popular?

    See my threat and tell me what you think? I've since added a custom cooking/storage box up front and it works great. http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/95410-Quicksilver-expedition-trailer?highlight=quicksilver

    Quicksilver expedition trailer.

    Maiden voyage with trailer and boat. The boat did fine on the trailer but I think I will build a rack to hold the boat. It pulled great. No fishtailing or anything. The trailer is so light I would forget it was behind me. The nice part about the Timbren is the trailer does not bounce...

    Quicksilver expedition trailer.

    I could have but it's been my experience that if you have large aggressive tires they tend to throw rocks at your tow rig unless you have fender protection.

    Quicksilver expedition trailer.

    Just put the fenders on. I had to make a removable part of the fender so I could open the door to the trailer. So far it is working fine.

    Quicksilver expedition trailer.

    I put a temporary deck on the front. This will eventually be my camp kitchen.

    Quicksilver expedition trailer.

    I just put the fenders on last week. I'll have pics soon. I had to cut one of the fenders and make a removable piece because of the door. It came out fine for now

    Quicksilver expedition trailer.

    I found about 15 psi on road and about 8 psi off road work great with my trailer. The only problem I'm running into right now is the Timbren is squeaking. The suspension works great but the noise is a pain. I'm sending them an email for solutions.

    Quicksilver expedition trailer.

    Eventually I will have it painted to match the FJ. I'll have some more pics soon.
