Okiebuilt Trailer
- Thread starter jdg18970

I dont have one, but I am on the fence about it. On one hand its pretty cheap for a overland trailer, but on the other I think its very lacking in design features. Seems like that trailer could be built fairly cheap and fast given how simple it is. I have been contemplating building something similar with leftovers from my camper build.
It looks like it has timbren suspention which I like, but outside of that I am not very impressed. Perhaps if it was lighter? It looks incredibly heavy for what it is.

They don't look to bad. I saw them and was thinking about purchasing one.
In the long run I settled picking up a modified M416 off of a fellow forum member for less than Okie Built asking price. It also included my dream tent with the sale. Granted it needs modification to complete the whole design and vision. I figure when said and done I will have close to purchasing a trailer and tent from a vendor but I will have exactly what I want.

Thanks for the replies,
I've been looking at ALL the trailers out there and this one seems to fit our needs, which I should have thrown out in the first post. Price wise this is the most affordable and seems to be built well, I searched through the entire site and Facebook site and nothing is jumping out at me. I dont have the technical knowledge, tools, space to build one so that is a huge mitigating factor. I looked at getting a M1101, yes cheaper, but then I am still fabing stuff potentially. One use of the trailer is to haul a scooter and or two different BMW motorcycles. I have a friend that moved and he had a M1101 and we put one his motorcycles in it, a BMW GSA and it almost killed all three of us doing it since it is alot higher. The supports for the tent is also what we are looking at since we have been looking at at RTT for a while. This seems to fill all our needs, haul stuff, bikes with a RTT. Any other advice or thoughts let me know. Thanks again.
