PEAK PUTTERS

Hook it up!
For those that find this post googling, your winch drum will heat up synthetic rope if you power out unless you have a winch like Lud's. It is like driving with your parking brake on.

For inspiration, head over to the trailer forum on Expedition Portal.

That is super cool. Can't wait to see what you do with it!

Excellent photos!! I had a really good time. Thanks for everything.

The pup is ready for action. . .although not "done" yet/ever:

So... how stable is the trailer with two adults floppin' around upstairs? Does it have to be connected to the vehicle... or do you have outriggers planned? :P That is the trick. . .the way I built the trailer was 75/25 rear/front for axle placement. The trailer is light enough that I can still load...

No. . .for sure not the Taj. . .

Hullo. What kind of wheelin is your favorite?

In anticipation of the 2" mattress not being enough squishy, I got a couple of the hybrid foam rubber egg crate matt and put them under the mattress cover on top of the stock mattress. I am happy to report that the alpha test was a success. It rained like crazy and then got really windy. The wi...

One step closer to expo trail cred....

I got the Smittybilt RTT. It is actually really stout. I will post more pictures tomorrow when I get the mount finished.

I totally dig it. I think I'll be camping in the driveway this weekend to try mine out.

Tentrax are cool.

Almost done mounting the RTT. . .

They have a variety of sleeves like that at Ranch and Home. Last time I needed some, I just cut the right sized tubing to lenght.

My very first hard core mod. Now with pics!!

This is very cool. I loved how the last one came out. I am going to something similar to the LJ.
