    The Mama Compatible Overlanding Trailer

    So I started something last week... In an effort to teach my 13 year old son some trade skills, and to spend some quality time with him, we have decided to build an overlanding trailer. It is also a way to accommodate my wife, who is a bit of a city gal and would prefer to go glamping lol...

    Recommendations for my little trailer

    Hi all looking for some advice and interested in reading some ideas. I recently got this small trailer for not very much at all from someone who was just not using it. Without thinking too much of it (because the cost was very low) I picked it up from them. Now where I'm looking for some...

    Build vs. Buy - An Overland Trailer Debate

    So I am maxing out what my rig can carry, and frankly, don't need all my gear on the truck all the time. Same story as many of you I am sure. This is compelling me to consider a trailer. I'm an amateur welder, and have the shop space to build, but it seems like a daunting endeavor vs. buying...

    M1102 Trailer Build

    Living in Arizona one of my hobbies is getting out into the wild to take photos, primarily astrophotography (Can't share those photos on the forums as the files are too big). There are plenty of locations I've only ever traveled to in the dark, the first several times I went to the Grand Canyon...

    Modular Propane Tank Mounts

    Working on a M1102 trailer build and trying to figure out a good way to mount propane tanks. Modeled these after the Power Tank brand style mounts. Planning to cut the flat pattern on my CNC plasma with a few stitch welds once everything is bent. Tracking down some T-bolt clamps the right size...

    Newbie Trailer build. AT-ST

    I'm starting my first trailer build. Trailer named AT-ST to go with my AT-AT(2017 OR Tacoma) I'm still new to Overlanding and somewhat new to forums. More or less creep then actually post. A buddy of mine started this build but ended up going to an RV so I ended up getting it for a great...

    Dinoot Trailer Builders

    Hi folks! Seems like there's a few Dinoot builders on the forum, but I didn't see a thread for general Dinoot topics, so I thought I'd start one. The Tventuring forums at Dinoot.com seem to be down again. First question: Does anyone have a build parts weight list they'd be willing to share...

    4x6 enclosed trailer

    I've been looking at building or buying an overland trailer. I've been really interested in the jackwagon, CVT, schutts And others. My problem is being 6'3 the very low tables that some do come with would be hard to utilize due to my height. I've been considering getting a 4x6 enclosed trailer...
