Wow!Working on the camper modifications.
Very Nice work!
How are you going to insulate it?
Love the tailgate step. You could make several and sell those. I want one.
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
Wow!Working on the camper modifications.
For now just going to glue the foam insulation board to the inside. I painted one side light grey. Seafoam green would of been better but I had the grey paint and it seems to be a nice color.Wow!

Do you have a build thread here on SS that I missed?For now just going to glue the foam insulation board to the inside. I painted one side light grey. Seafoam green would of been better but I had the grey paint and it seems to be a nice color.
The tailgate step was powder coated OD green. It stores by hanging it on the inside of the rear door. I'll see if the fabricators can make another one.
Some of the photos are during the ongoing fab work. Once it's completed I will snap a few more photos.
Just a note, don't leave the fabricators alone for a week, they come up with some crazy stuff.
When I completely went through my trailers, on one the brake shoes were on backwards. On another, bearings were trashed on one side and looked new on the other side. That side was missing a major brake spring also.Got the left side wheel opened up to inspect the brake drum and wheel bearing. A return spring for the top of the rear shoe was broken. Ran to Advance Auto and bought a large truck spring hardware bag and modified one of the general purpose springs to fit. Peace of mind gained in an hour's work. The brake and drum are spinning well now and I've got that wheel buttoned back up and will do the right wheel today and feel VERY good about towing her to the Graves Mountain Rally loaded with all my gear.

Mine is for sale. ..... everything worksI would love one of those!
Mine is for sale. .... everything worksBeen wanting one, BUT around here when they come up for sale they are crazy high !!!
Wow, that brings back memories. I did many an early morning pre-flight by the light of those things. Don't sleep inside!View attachment 697676View attachment 697677View attachment 697678
Something new to tow around.
NF2D FloodLight/Generator set.
Not sure to call this a trailer thing or not.
Not for highway I know, but tows better than expected.
Will be placing a SMV (Slow Moving Vehicle) sign on the back so I can take it on the road.
It's considered a farm implement.
WOW!!Just about finished with the camper. The idea was to keep it looking like a regular trailer from the outside. The generator cover has been painted green.
I have to agree, WOW!!WOW!!
Just........WOW!!
Amazing work and I love the stealthy look....camper?...what camper??
That looks REALLY NICE!!! I might do something similar in the bed of my 927, at least until I do my ISO conversionJust about finished with the camper. The idea was to keep it looking like a regular trailer from the outside. The generator cover has been painted green.
Just removed all of the wood and boxed it out with aluminum. We did keep the bows to retain the original shape.I have to agree, WOW!!
Please tell us what camper or box or whatever. I am looking for a aluminum ARE top with dual back doors but after looking at this with the tarp over it, I really am interested. Details please....
Great job!!
I have passed on the compliments to the two fabricators. They actually did bring up the idea of selling them. So maybe.....That is such a great design and quality work, that you could easily manufacture more of them and sell as a complete unit.
From people who have talked to me about my trailers, the interest is definitely there and guys with lots of cash and not enough time to build their own would love this.
I know several who would buy this in a second, if they were available.
I love the fact that it doesn't look like a camper.
Park this in Bass Pro or Cabelas, etc. and name your price.
Outstanding..........Simply Outstanding!
