Sleeping with the birds. I test fit the 7 x 7 coleman tent today. It fits well and the fiberglass poles center in the corners and the rain fly hooks keep the tent from soaring away without the weight of sleeping bags and people to hold it to the deck. The tent is a Coleman Marlboro...

No, The deck is set at 30" off the tub floor. I can get items in and out somewhat easy. It has been a progression build. The rack for kayaks and a future RTT and now the deck. Being steel the deck is a little heavy. I can slide it off myself but with two it is a lift and go. I am going to test...

Thanks! for the jack info. I keep a sissor jack in the trailer in case of flats. No spare tire because the trucks fits the trailer too, 235-85-16 Hankooks all around.

The corner guards were something I drew up and sent to the steel laser operator at the sign company I work at. He asked What do you need the Pac Man cut outs for? I explained my project to him and he said OK! It was not until I showed him the finished picture that he got why I needed them. The...

Looks good to me! Cool jack you are useing what brand is it?

I welded the corner guards and tie downs to the deck painted it and mounted it to the cross bars. I was going to weld the deck to the rack but I bolted it instead with carriage bolts and large wing nuts " Black plastic mower handle knobs " They work well and I can remove the deck with two people...

Matching wheels and pewter paint would look nice with the tan top!

It is in very good shape. I wish mine was tan I may have kept it original. Don't forget the required tub mounted bottle opener. Right side of tailgate for mine. "you make lots of friends with one"

Did you order the hubs with the same metric bolt pattern as the Excursion?

Nice looking trailer. They are great trailers to use. Built like a tank, good size and the build possibilities are endless. Your Sierra won't even notice it behind. What are the plans for the trailer original or custom? Keep us posted on the work. My build...

If you build it we will look!

I like the look! The stacks are cool too! Original rims?

Marine speakers off ebay is my suggestion. Paint OD to blend in too.

The 1101 has the nut inserts in the wall and with the right bracket bent up, It would be simple to make a rack. I would not go wider than the trailer. Or just use the brackets you have and weld to those. Look for boat repair shops or large sign making shops. They fab aluminum. Post what you...

If you are looking for a cover for the trailer I had mine made here. http://www.mytarp.com/machine-covers.aspx It has held up well so far.

Are you going to use the cover at the same time too? What about a cover for the tub? The 1101, 1102 trailers do not have stake pockets. I would use the bow mount brackets and mount cross bars to those. The four center plates would be strong enough. Or go all out and make a tent deck like I...

The crank handle slides over the drive rod of the landing leg jack. It has a slotted position that engages a split pin in the drive rod. once the handle is slipped on and engaged crank away. Evil Dr. Porkchop makes and sells crank handles.

themelon, Pictures of your work please!

Looks good, Does your equipment trailer have a 2 5/16" coupler too?

Access the star wheel through the hold in the backing plate. Turn the star adjuster in and the brake shoes should retract. Pop the drums off and inspect. If they are scored or have a large lipgrand it off or have them turned at the auto parts.
