Hey Connecticut, our everything hurts

I took a 1.5 hour ride today for this!

 

Very nice. How did you like towing w/ a pintle (granted it was empty...)

 

Trailer looks nice. Can’t believe the price on those things though

 

I didn't feel anything really...took it easy on way back.

 

They are expensive but extremely useful

 

my military trailer. goal is to mount the old Taco bed on top. Just hasn't been a priority this year.

 

Saaaay, did you drag that home w/ no plate? tsk, tsk. ;-)

 

That's Awesome! And a good idea too

 

I put my spare plate on it at least

 

No light hookup yet either wrong plug.
Hence why I took it nice and easy coming home. I was nervous though not for the cops but all the knuckleheads driving around!

 

I only have bumper hitch. So trailering it home solved all my issues - no pintle, no plate, no lights.... Actually have magnetic lights, but still. The knuckleheads are the biggest threat. Get some orange flagpoles for it, like when you go sand-duning.

 

It's in the plans! Along with way to much other stuff.
Seriously I need like 6 months off

 

I took 2 years off & didn't get it all done! I have a friend spends 1 hour after work each night. 1 hour only, no more, no less. Gets so much done.

 

The pintle that's on your trailer has no spring behind it, when you break it might slam into the pintle lock...I can take a pic of mine if you want to see setup.

 

Good idea but my problem is when I start I don't like to stop, half the time my wife is telling me to eat something.

 

So I’ve been looking at doing a trailer build this coming spring and I planned to build from scratch. What’s the advantage of starting with an expensive military trailer that will take a lot of work?

 

^ that wasn’t meant to be rude!

 

It's already built, I'm only planning on modifying it to suit my needs.
Plus if I were to build it it wouldn't come out half as good
Also shocks and leaf packs can get pricy.

 

No worries I get where your coming from
