    Not as much as the truck, in key places it will be for sure but I'm trying to keep the weight down as much as possible. I want the center of gravity down on the lower side hopefully the 37's being 210lbs will keep it down low. But my tent is 220lbs and that's going up high!

    Yeah with a 34" frame height I shouldn't have a problem with that :D

    I sure hope so I have only worked 4 days on it and gotten this far so I'm sure it will be rolling by then. It might not be all the way completed with all extra shit all be doing to it like on board power & running water but it will be road worthy.

    I came in for an hour today to get the struts mocked up. They are 8" stroke ORI's there will be 4 up and 4 down if travel. They are mounted at 63 degrees at bump. These were just for mock up i have a blue set coming to match the truck. IMG_20140420_093234_1_zps2kr3pgni_d3f743249c2ce92a10154140439829e415e702e6.jpg

    Killer Jerry! Looking forward to watching this progress. My little trailer is tinker toys compared to this but after 6 years of having the trailer I gotta say I love having it. It has made all the difference in camping, especially with the family.

    I'm sure you'll enjoy yours just as much.

    So I guess the only possible way to one up your axle set up would be to have a fully functional drive axle for the trailer
