Why do people place the cooler in the rear? Looking this over I am moving my cooler to the front of the trailer weight distribution.

Sheet metal what a pain. The coming weekend is going to be fun. Spot welding the center and cleaning up the edges.

Have I told anyone how much I FN hate grinding on inner corners welds? Hit a stopping point. Now have to find cardboard big enough to make a pattern for the inside frame flooring. 

I am lucky to have a retired uncle with a nice garage to work out of. And all the tools I need or want.

I might have been look at other A arms pictures online wrong. But we’ll try it out and if that trail does not like the set up its to easy to flip them around.

No one could figure out what I did wrong so here it is. Some how rolling the axle back into place to be attached. I had rolled the spindle upside down. This weekend 18th of Mar had to cut welds and make sure that the spindles where in the right place. Now working on building up.

Who here in this app has the right to move threads?. 

Just started a thread called built not bought, and that’s my next project. It's on building a overland trailer from the ground up.

I really didn't want a single axle. A true independent suspension. 

It will take time to build right now it's all cutting fitting and welding. All which my uncle can't help because it's a one man job.

Yes there are things your going to forget to do and have to undo a lot of work to fix it. Can you till me what I did wrong?

And money I wish I had to through at the project.

This is not a week project. I started this Nov 2022. I have a life at times I wish I could put on hold to build my dream.

Then came trying to find spring coils and the right shocks. Know the coils I got are going to be way to strong for the weight this trailer is going to be.

Did not like all the over prices suspension systems out on the market. And man was it hard to find good pics and A arm or measurements online.  

Sat down and started drawing it out.

So I started building what I wanted

Don't like the prices of overland trailers. Did not like the set up of them.

Working on building an overland trailer. After looking at prices of trailers online and seeing them none of them have what I want or where I want things to be. https://instagram.com/smidee_warwagon?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=
