M101A2, found one with a metal cage and not wood. It will be an overland trailer when I'm done. So roof top tent, water tote on top of the cage. Still have room for equipment and supplies inside the trailer itself.

First up, remove military wire and wire up 4 way. Also I want a trailer jack as once it is built out I won't be able to lift it for the fixed stand.

This will be the RTT I will buy, it won't take all the rack room, so a 30ish gallon water tote will be mounted up there (weight support pending) that way I can have gravity fed shower and/or sink.

As with my suburban build this is my first time, and I will try to photo everything along with my experience to show ANYONE can build something as long as your willing to try and fail and get dirty!!!

I'm jealous I have the same trailer and its got the wood supports and they need repaired. But it has hauled a lot of gravel and sand to the house for projects here. Handled just fine with 2,000+ pounds in it did a few trips with twice that I think. My wife and I discussed doing something like this when we got it but haven't done more then fix lights. I got it with 4 wire lights and camo paint.


UPDATE, Wife said spend $165 all metal bows may be here by end of week, Thanks Ebay.
