Gear storage. I’m a foot too tall to sleep in it. Still fleshing it out. I was far too disorganized last season.

Looking good Johnny. I was getting my research trailer organized this afternoon too. I tidied up some wiring by putting it into flexible conduit, and got the trailer ready for its next adventure.

Now that’s a set-up. I’m still waiting on my trailer frame to be delivered…and with materials cost…it might be next season before I have it done.
But I got the subwoofer re-mounted so there’s that.
Lol
Nice. Got to be able to listen to music! It’s not optional.
I started building my trailer in 2015 for the 2016 field season. It had no real interior until maybe 2019. It is a work in progress, and like a Jeep, never really done!

Many, many deliveries of Jeep stuff today. Tons of wrenching to do. Ball joints, wheel bearings, skid plates, flat floor to finish, gear to load up for load testing.
My son is joining me for the annual July trip, so I’ve got to figure out how to load all the usual stuff, plus a second persons gear…and keep the load at 700lbs or less.

First project of the day- painting wheel caps- have to hand paint the details to clean up the look a bit.

I request a “before” vs “after” the field season pic, showing all the off road scratches in August.

Is this a homemade rig? My wife and I want a similar set up, whether DIY or a small tear-drop camper.

Heck, it will be trashed first trip out on the corn grid! The good news is it hides all the scrapes from last season on the cross bars^^^ Nice job

Yup, homemade but starting with a flatbed M116A3 generator trailer. Here is my build thread if you want details.

I remember following that thread over there having no idea at the time that you were "one of us".
Really terrific job on that!

Smart man!
I was sick most of the winter and at times it impaired my enthusiasm for hauling stuff in from the woodrack, but in typical years I run my woodstove and pellet stove all winter and tell the gas company to lump it. I shudder to think of what people still on fuel oil are going through. I read where the price of filling a standard home tank has risen by $600 - mostly coming just in the last month or so.

Welp. Got the lower ball joints upgraded to moogs. Gave up on the wheel bearing. Nothing wrong with it. Or the abs sensor. Discovered missing caliper bolt. That explains one symptom. Too tired to troubleshoot anymore today.

Ok. I’ve said this before, but it looks like I finally got the ABS fixed. Problem now appears to be front brakes hanging up. It alternates wheels at random. Rears don’t hang. Take lines and calipers are virtually brand new from when I was last troubleshooting this issue. Bad master cylinder perhaps? I’m clueless with disc brakes beyond the basics.

Not today but this week I put in new tie rods and a upper rear control arm. World of difference in how it handles.
