I havnt done much to it. I am just trying to find some $$ to purchase the axle parts. I am trying to determine hwat color to paint it. i did the color swatch thing and painted a part of it john deere green and one side olive drab, the olive is looknig better to me

 

Gotta match the Jeep!

 

Still havnt done that much BUT I did get my spindles and hubs in and wheels. I welded the axles up, i have it sitting on the trailer, i just need to tack weld the perches and then weld it fully and paint and i should have that part done Then have to make fenders. Hey Dpnnie does that green pipe look familiar to you

 

Well it is starting to look like a trailer






Unfortunately i do not have two same siize tires. I will eventually, So it does look a bit odd.

 

I ordered my lunette Ring for the front and made my fenders. I only have the fender moutns tacked on, and i already need to move one back a touch.

 

For this jeep it matches just fine, if i had the bus i would have to do the spring over. I made space under the fenders to accomodate 33s if i went to that size tire. The trailer will probably never see "trail" usage but it will be fine the way it is for campnig equipment and other hauling duties.

 

Well got the landing leg installed today. I still need to get the pin to lock it in place, but no biggie.

 

Actually they are a rusty mustard color. No paint The trailer is going to be yellow with possible black fenders.

 

I got the lunette eye welded to the trailer, now i can actually tow it

 

Dan your trailer is looking great....nice job

Everything in primer.
