Timberleaf Pika trailer

[rnArmy]

Last week I picked up my new Timberleaf Pika trailer with the off-road package. I pretty much checked all the boxes. $27,000. Ouch I know, but pay once, cry once. I ordered it how I wanted it, and it took about six months before it was ready for pickup. Weighs between 1500 and 1600lbs, has a Timbren independent suspension, MTBBAT 285.70.17 tires, electric brakes, solar panel, inverter, lithium battery, electric fridge, propane heater, etc.

I picked the trailer up at the factory in CO, camped in the CO mountains for a few days, then towed it to FL to visit family and friends, and then towed it back home to SW WA. No issues. Towed nicely - I'm loving it. I slept in it every night I was on the road.

It has a heavy tongue weight (more than I can comfortably lift to move the trailer), so I got a HD dolly mount for the front of the trailer. I've also got some heavier springs for the rear of the Jeep. And these additional Timbren helper things for the Jeep's rear suspension:

I also installed two Rotopax 3 gallon fuel jugs to the front storage box. I also bought a matching MT wheel for the trailer and before my next major trip I'll get a matching MTBBAT tire 285.70.17 to go with it. And probably five new MTBBAT tires 315.70.17 for the Jeep.

My next big trip with the Jeep and trailer is this summer. A three to four week trip from SW WA to Dawson Creek (the start of the Alaska Highway) to Fairbanks, then the Dalton Highway up to Prudhoe Bay, then back to Fairbanks, and take a different more westernly route home to Vancouver BC, then cross back into the USA, and down I-5 to home. Figure about 6,000 miles round trip.
