Emprise Trailer Build by SOS Concepts

I wanted an #EAF / #OLAF trailer but wanted something more than the standard M416 style but less than a fully decked out $30k expedition teardrop with pull out sinks and toilets. The trailers that I found within my parameters were either not enough, had questionable build quality, or were way too much money for what I'd be getting in options.

I knew if I wanted it built right with quality craftsmanship and a lot of forethought, the first and only person that came to mind was @EddyRRT at SOS Concepts. Eddy and I spoke at length about what I wanted and what I didn't want and we bounced a lot of ideas around. Eddy spent a lot of time with me figuring out the "flow" of the trailer for placement of everything. Once we got everything figured out, the build began!

Out for a test run! Pulled at 70mph without issue.


Getting primed for liner!

 

It pulled great up the mountain and handled excellent on the “road” from the campground entrance to the trailhead where we camped. The independent torsion axle suspension soaked everything up!






Brought it home to dry out the RTT before taking it back up to SOS for finishing...

 

And she sits...waiting for the next adventure.

 

By far the best thing I've helped him build.
