Custom off road pop up trailer

Hey All,
The kids are getting older and the entire family doesn't camp with me like they used to. The past year and a half we've only taken the trailer out once so I'd like to find it a good home. I spent a lot of time remodeling this for our Baja trips and it's perfect for a family of 5. It has two queen beds and the tab folds down to make a bed as well. I pulled the flooring out long ago and put in padding and astro turf for the flooring. It's SO comfortable on bare feet first thing in the morning. I know it doesn't look like much (the camo paint was an idea after 3+ beers) but it'll two down a washboard dirt road like a dream. I pulled the factory fridge and the slot is perfect for an ARB or Engle 45qt. When on the road I position the fridge at the door for easy pit stop access. Once we set up camp I just slide the fridge into it's slot under the stove.
I just posted it to Craigslist but would prefer to see it go to an Expo Member.
$3,600

Interesting trailer. I have been thinking about trying to build or buy something like this. What did you do to beef up the frame and suspension? It was a little hard to tell from the Craigslist pictures.

Also, what size wheels and tires? Any leaks?

Any additional pictures would be great.

Thanks,

Kelly

The tires are 31x10-15's. I updated the craigslist add with some additional interior pics. Trying to upload a few here but it keeps failing, user error I'm sure. Aside from the ridgity added by the sliders, I didn't do anything to the frame. The leaf springs are origional because I didn't want anything too stiff and then I just beefed up the mounts to be able to withstand miles of Baja washboard.
