Army trailer build

[Scott Murray]

Nice looking setup. Thinking about shipping my rig down your way and spending about 6 months exploring.

You should do it.

Added a few more details today.
Installed a reset able fuse.

And a cover for the front. No hinges in town so made my own out of rubber for now.

Also my water connection set up and charging source at the rear.

Relocated my Overland bound emblem from the Patrol to the trailer. Still have one on the cruiser.

Probably our last trip in the Northern Territory before relocating to Western Australia.

Where did you find those caravan stabilizer/jacks? I NEED some!

Been awhile since I have updated this thread (I am bad for that).

Since getting to WA, I have decided to strip out the trailer and those tool boxes and build a canopy set up myself.
It needs to be a few things eg, light, functional, aesthetically pleasing.

This is what I have done so far.

First off I designed and made up our kitchen.

Then I installed our hot water system.

It fitted in perfectly, and I never even measured lol

Then I went shopping for the next part of the project.



Next onto the canopy doors.

The 'over the centre' latches were not working as I would have liked. So I changed them out for T Handles.





Perfect fit again (NO MEASURING) must be luck.

Kitchen in place.

 

[Scott Murray]

Ok back into it.
Built the rear door. And thinking about it I wanted it to be sealed but also removable. Simple butt hinges made this possible. It is removable and can be used as a table.
