[QUOTE="CHOP SHOP, post: 1181245, member: 17493"] Heres mine. I built it a few years ago. It needs a new paint job, but otherwise works well. I used a 24 foot camper that I cut down and built drive over fenders (how I addressed the narrow axles). I used some 7 inch channel iron for most of it. I got the channel for free from a neighbor that scrapped a mobile home a few years back. I welded on a free hand winch on the tounge. I then welded on a jack I found at the dump. It was in a pile at the drop off station, it was a bulldog jack with the wheel missing. So I welded an old sami ubolt plate to a broken toyota birfield (notice crack!) and welded it to the jack for a foot. I also welded in some 1.25 inch 1.20 wall to the sides and fenders as recievers for some side boards all around. I used 1 inch plywood for the side boards and some 1 inch tube to fit inside the 1.25. I went to the local wrecking yard and got the wheels and tires off of a ford ranger. They were like new and I got them for 75bucks rims and tires. I know, I know they are not trailer tires But I have had zero problems with them.:beer: [/QUOTE]
