Harv3589's M101 CDN2 build

[jamm]

That's coming along nicely. Looks sharp. I've had my trailer for 5 years and still have several projects ahead of it.

Nice build! I especially like the built in stereo lol

The "stereo" is old, I've had it since I was about 10 years old lol. Antenna is broke and I now have hay wire on it, but it works for outside doing projects

Had it re-VIN'd the other day so it has a longer serial number vs the original one that's just on the front plate.

Mounted one of the latches today with what little time I have...

Fitted the table to the side so it stays and doesn't move.

Used some left over rubber mat and riveted it to the bottom of table supports where it rests on the fender. Prevents it from sliding.

Thanks!

Haven't really had time to do anything on with all the yard work I have to do...building fence, deck, sod and siding my shed out back. Hope to get back at the trailer some tomorrow and take a break from the yard.

Is the table fixed somehow so it doesn't tip over, or just put lock under the rim?

Coming along nicely Planing on adding a couple jacks to the rear to help level things at camp? With the added weight to the front I suppose you don't have an issue with the trailer tipping when you are at the back of the tent. I have four on mine and find they work great for leveling and keeping the tent from bouncing around when I toss and turn. Although I do find them a little awkward to pack and an electric drill or impact is high on my purchase list to speed packing and unpacking.

The table fits into the angle of the tub nicely and wedges in...the rubber on the bottom stops it from moving on the fender. No need for any locks or tie downs for the table. Quick and easy!

I can put my weight on the front edge of the table and it doesn't move...so it should be good.

A stabilizer is in the plans for the rear....I was going to do jacks but didn't want the extra weight of the jacks. I think I'm going to build one like Adventure trailers sells...simple and light weight. See if it works out....I will post up pics when I get it done!

Did some work on the trailer today before work. Finished getting the new brackets welded on for the one fender. Repainted the camo on that side and the rear. Welded on the handle for the lid.

Getting there and soon it will be going on its maiden voyage.

Also welded up the propane bottle holder that's in between the jerry can baskets. Just have to pick up some more rivets and attach the rubber that's going around the inside the mount so the bottle fits tight.

Little more done today....

Mounted the jerry can baskets on the tongue which I finally got sprayed.

That looks awesome. LOVE the camo, I think you should leave it like that.

Heck, I might paint mine that colour again!
