XVENTURE TRAILERS

Hi Sam, we can provide you with the 2.5 x 3.5 1/4 wall tubing if you like. It's mostly all we use for the LTT line.
Do I understand you correctly that you are going to reduce the tracking width on this chassis? The whole chassis or just the wheel distance? Keep in mind that all LTT trailer we engineered to track behind a military HUMVEE which is 72.5 inches. Your Jeep track is approximately 63.5. If you look at all the specs of our XVENTURE XV-2 they are precisely engineered to track a Jeep JK. If you are going to narrow the trailer I would recommend trying to get as close to those specs as possible. We should talk about these modification as it can get a little tricky.
Integrating the Timbren system into our trailers is something I brought to the table after meeting with them at SEMA last year. Frankly the jury is out on that design as far as I am concerned. It's expensive once you add hubs and brakes. I feel the superior system would be a similar design but with complete air adjustability. And that type of design starts bringing the price up. So this topic always leads me back to the Torsion axle design. It's the most reliable, cost effective, and easy to implement. Again the trick is to choose the proper axil weight rating.
Is the plan to build a full enclosure on this platform?
Thanks,
Mark
