Offroad/Overland Trailers -- Whatcha got?

I've been using on & off for over 20 years a M416 trailer.
Different RTT, no RTT, bike kayak hauler, its been from MX to Alaska
Best built trailers out there.
The Pintel can't be beat

 

it looks like its a rack on top cant see if it has a hard top or not

 

hold up...

how you do the tailgate i must know lol

and the pintel can be beat tbh look at mine lol

 

Hinged hard top... old picture, before wheel and tent change.

 

That's pretty cool and allows good access to stuff in the front

 

Yeah, the gas strut assisted hinged lid is one of my favorite aspects of this trailer. When I switched from the Mumbasa tent to the CVT Rainier Summit, there was a considerable weight gain and the shocks would no longer hold the top open. Losing that functionality really sucked (crawling into the front). I've since swapped the (2) 200lb shocks for (2) 350 lb shocks and she now opens like a dream.

I intend to put a taller rack on the top for the tent, so I can fit my kayak below. Hopefully the shocks still support the extra rack steel. I'll probably add some additional hinges to help support the additional load and leverage.

 

Been converting mine from a 4x8 heavy construction trailer. Have alot more to do but its coming along

 

I really dig those white wheels.

 

Thanks sadly not on camper anymore for now

 

Where is a good place to find one of these small M trailers? Assuming they are usually used and not new?

 

Anyone here have experience with Black Series pop up trailers? They look great, and I cannot find and recent US reviews.

 

I am also interested in the photos. Or to see one of your builds in person, I’m in Taleigh

 

I am in Apex. We can meet up. I had a death in the family yesterday and we are out this week for funeral and wake arrangements. I will hit you up next week once I get back.

 

I also am interested in going this route, except I was going to get a pop-up and swap the axle to a beefier one with a 6 on 5.5 hub pattern.

 

No worries. I am sorry for your loss.

 

If I was to do it again I would buy one of those pop up a frame campers, lift it, and put it on some 6x5.5 axles. This thing is a parachute to drag around

 

you mean the m100 or m416?

i found mine on craigslist

 

Yes, I’ve been trying to determine the sizes and think M100 is what I’m looking for. I like the CVT, Smittybilt, Manly and those like that. I’m wanting to put my RTT on that and free up the bed for bikes and other stuff. I’m more than likely going to have to buy pre-made because I’m not a welder or have access to those skilled people

 

m100 and m416 are the same thing only difference from what i can see is the fenders

m100 is round fenders
m416 is boxy
m101 is massive its a full size trailer

i cant weld either man but i have people that know how to also you can find trailer places and normally they can help out

buuut if you find one in great shape you wont need to weld anything tbh you can buy bolt on racks and tops for these trailers so the only welding you would need to do is probably doing a new hitch setup

 

Thanks for that...I was searching for a 416 because I like the box fenders but found one 2 hours away and in rough shape. They wanted $2k and I struggle to pay that for the shape it’s in. Looks like an old Dodge w/all the rust and cancer.
