Not the Rig but the trailer is getting it's new suspension mocked up. Should have gone with 2inch lift springs over the 4 inch lift YJ springs bit for $150 I can always change them out. Also took measurements for the belly mounted water tank.
If you want a good recommendation for a chainsaw I have a echo CS590 and has been the best chainsaw I've ever had on the trail. Even more so then the last stihl I had. Just be sure to bring the proper safety gear, extra chain, oil (or premix) and sharpener.

I love having a chainsaw on the trail ever since I took one out. I keep a full air up and down kit with patches and plugs. And a full recovery kit for the winch and pull bars. But brush clear g can be a pain. Cash is nice but not something I think about since both mine and my wife's vehicles...
I love the max coupler. The lock and roll does have a tendency to fail if you ever have to reverse the trailer on a trail (I have personally seen this failure twice) for this reason I have max couplers and dont use pins but bolts with large washers and double nuts with the exception of the...
That's why I have a instant tent for ground camping if we are out by ourselves (IE not group setup) it's easy to take down and the cost was about $100. Yeah it may only last me 1 or 2 years but I can live with that. All my tents get additional coating by the way of 303 or the like and have had...
I will also say not to shorten the tongue until you have the trailer near completion. I would add tongue storage like a HF box (get the more expensive box trust me on this) and behind the box in front of the actual trailer add a few water and fuel cans. My trailer is also a HF based build and...
I run a smittybilt xrc9k with aftermarket synthetic line and have yet to use it. However I did have steel cable for about a year and used it a ton. It was as if installing the synthetic line caused me to no longer use the winch however I'm glad to have it. It has come in handy for things I never...
I have Nankang mudstars in 33x12.5x15. I had to buy 8 tires at one time for my rig and my trailer so cost was a major consideration. Total was about $1300 for all 8.

You could check out the suspended tent from tentsile. Though I think the largest they make is a 3 person.

We keep a small assortment of top Ramen, fresh fruit and chilli bean and a small hiking stove in a small bag

I like to waterproof all cloth material. It may not sound like money saving up front but preventing water damage to things inside the tent or under an awning could potentially save thousands. I have used the 303 products and currently use star brite with ptfe. I spray my tents, awnings, chairs...
