Likely not. not sure what the input and output splines are but they are a heavily computer controlled trans. Not to say it cant be done but i have a feeling it would involve swapping and programming a new ECU

looks awesome!

My little guy has been out camping all over the place with us since he was about 6 months old. Now we have another on the way lol. It certainly adds some challenges, and traveling is much slower.... drives that used to take me most of a day are now days..and there is a ton more gear needed to...

Sounds good to me. But make sure the spindle used in the carrier can handle all that weight. Or make sure that it can the fastened in multiple spots for traveling.

It's possible. I know rough country likes to use their shocks as bumb stops in most lifts which is why they have a big rubber block on them most of the time, so i was thinking maybe that was loose and moving on the shaft causing a "double hit" ( though I don't know what their struts look like...

@dirtcrazy looks awsome.

I like that trailer. Home built or bought?

Over the years the body panels took some hits from the rocks to its all been covered with 3/16" or 1/4" steel. Everything is bolted on with stainless button head bolt which gives it that look.

Fingers crossed for you! I never managed to get s lift in my patriot and rough country didn't offer struts for then at the time, but I loved that thing. It was always super comfortable to drive.

This answer is exactly what I would have written lol. I've been building/wheeling/overlanding rigs for 15 years and my gear is still always changing.

That's pretty much my dream rig. Lived in a 2 door blazer for a while until the motor had nothing left to give and the rear end blew..... miss that truck all the time..

I'll keep that in mind about the unsprung weight. I have an issue of overbuilding things and I am trying to break that habit or the trailer will weigh more than the jeep lol. I doubt I will be towing a trailer anywhere where I would need an articulating hitch, there's usually a better line to...

it wont go hard but hard enough. maybe I will narrow down my needs. I have taken my LJ all over Ontario ( Canada ) and some of the US. Some spots I've been in the US I wish I had my Jeep lol. I have a few trails that I go/spots I go camping that most people don't go, which means its quiet lol...

Was thinking either 4x6 or maybe a bit bigger. I want to keep my gear dry Soni was thinking a large slide out platform in the bottom half and a long open shelf ( possibly also a slide out) above that. All enclosed to stay dry. That way I wouldn't need to build a roof rack for my LJ to carry my...

Ok so question for both of you. Will a 2000 lb axle ( either welding in stub, torsion, or straight axle) hold up to off road use with "larger" tires? My big concern with all of the parts I have laying around is that they may be too light. Obviously I will still need to look at how I am putting...

I was looking at the cruise master suspensions for inspiration lol

Fair enough. I still have to do some math to find roughly how heavy it will be as a base, and then figure what I want to put on it and how much all that will weigh in at. I am hoping to keep it at light as possible...

More clearance than one vehicle and less than another lol. I know that a leaf suspension and straight axle will be easier to build. They do bounce around alot though, although I've never driven a with a trailer on coils do I don't now if it's better or not. Kinda spitballing ideas at the...

Ok, so I have a whole whack of parts and all kinds of ideas for trailer builds but can't decide on what would be best for a trailer that will likely be taken both on and off road .... I have a 2000 lb straight axle, a set of 2000lb leafs as well as 3500 lb leafs, and 2000 lb torsion axles ...

I wish I lived 4000 km closer lol. I've always wanted to wheel that area.
