Off road Jeep JKU Trailer Build

[drunkenmonke]

Past history I had an M-416 and a Bantam that I semi built before but came across this beauty for $150 about a year ago. The trailer came with a Jeep JK lug pattern and some bad *** 33" tires to match my tow vehicle but it needed some tweaks to even be road worthy. The prior owner went throught the process of inspection for a homemade trailer.

Somehow it must have passed inspection without fenders. I wasn't too keen on the front wall not being solid and the lights being mounted on the tailgate. This could be a problem when towing something that requires the tailgate to be down.

Adding fenders



Tongue lengthened with pintle hook and fenders attached! I would like to frame out the edges with square tubing in the future but at least it is road worthy for now.:smiley_drive:

Hi-Lift mounts added


Front wall fabricated and welded in front. Hi-Lift mounted on welded mounts. Added lock after wingnut to deter theft.
