Re: my xj camping trailer
Cool this is something i'm planning to do with a scapper i've got, but i'm going to do a shorter one cutting just in front of the rear doors and taking the roof off. Have you got any other pictures preferably of the front A frame section?

Nice, I wish I had a locking, covered, offroad capable trailer.


Shoot, you can bring an air mattress and simply make that your sleeper too.

Re: my xj camping trailer
Dude,

I've been planning that very same thing for years. I was going to use an MJ bed though. Cut it off and throw a camper shell on there. But seeing that I just might do an old XJ trailer. Hmm.

How did you do the Hitch? Regular? Or a Hook and Pintle?

Are the side door windows openable?

How long did it turn out to be?

I'm hoping to get a car hauler trailer for those long trips, so I need to know how long a trailer I'd need to fit the Jeep and off-road trailer too.

Eric

Wow...I'm guessing Sven didn't want to bother with shipping again?

Trailer looks good Kyro.

Re: my xj camping trailer
So what was the reason for chopping up the blue XJ and turning it into a trailer?
