JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

those things are for sale all over the place in government auctions and stuff, i think they're pretty cool. Get them cheap and trick them out

I think it weighs about 1200 lbs. They are way over built! When I take it apart im going to see about getting rid of some metal to lighten it up a bit. The racks that came on it where very heavy but even with them on my jeep pulled it just fine at 75mph.

How did the trailer "track" behind the JEEP? Wobble? Road Walk? Etc?

What kind of hitch do you have?

I pulled it home for about 360 miles it tracked straight no weaves or wobbles and it has a pintal hitch.

Wow? The govt practically gives them away...I'm surprised you went through all that. I bet you could have gotten one much easier. When I bought mine They had about 50 of them, some in good shape, some not. The one I had was excellent. Ultimately I got rid of it because its just too damn heavy to haul with the JK. Having a dry weight of 1500 lbs is really not a good platform to start with for an adventure trailer in my opinion. I'll get an M416 or CDN-M101 at some point and try again.

That being said, looks like the one you got is in great shape and I'm sure it'll clean up nicely!
