tires look kind of funny because they look small

900R22.5 radial They are a little shorter but I got them for $50.00 each on bead blasted wheels and powder coated. Good tread. I didn`t need NDTs on the trailer. But you have a point.

He's asking if the OP makes or will make a trailer that has a drop side bed on it with the M105 front section on it.

Hey...
Very nice build and very nice thread with lots of pictures.... But.....
Now that is has been a bit over a year since this project, any chance we can get an update on "Owner Satisfaction" and any issues that may have come up during use?
How much did the project end up weighing? (Empty)
How did the tongue weight come out/is the tongue length about right? (How long is it from the front of the box to the center of the lunet?)
Did you ever mount anything on the tongue? (generator, water tank, spare tire....)?
If you did it again, what would you do differently?
What did you decide to do with the brakes? 1 master cylinder per axle or per side or just 1 or what??
Whatever you initially did with the brake design, how do you like it? Have you had to change/modify it? If so, how and how is the change working?
Got any recent pictures of it all done and in use?
Thanks a bunch in advance!!

Latest updates are in the "M109 camper conversion" thread. They have put the foam on the inside of the sheet metal and put in the frame for the bed (with pics).
