Default Jeep Offroad Trailer Build
I started a blog to follow my progress as I build up an old M416 jeep military trailer for the trails. There are only a handful of other sites out there, so I thought this might be helpful to someone else looking to do the same thing. My TJ just doesn't have enough room for gear plus my 100lb dog! Enjoy!

I really like this idea! Especially considering the cost of some of those expedition trailers

Those $X000.00 jobs are nice but WAY more than I need for my little camping trip needs. Something like this is PERFECT.

Good job so far!

That sounds like a nice project. Maybe a nice one after the Jeep is finished or well at least further along.

Nice start on your M416 build.

I am building a M100 myself, but to date the only things I have got done is a Lock-N-Roll hitch, and a set of CDN 101 fenders.

Did a basic build on my m416, including a spring over lift, still a little uneven.
