I couldn't resist making a thread for the trailer. It's my new project and hey - I'm excited about it. It will take some time but as I progress I'll update here.
I have done a brief assessment of the trailer now and the only problem I see is the bed rust. There are some small spots in the bed that have rusted through. I am debating patching or replacing the bed at this point. Otherwise, everything is fine.
In the end, I am going to paint it black (like my jeep) and change the lighting over to recessed LED housings. The tires and wheels will probably be left the same + paint. I like the look for now and don't feel compelled to make them different. Although, I did see a sweet deal on some 38" mud tires down the road from me..
Anyway, heres the beginning:
My thought is to cut the bed out, leaving an inch or so to mount a new bed to - or to simply cut out the few bad spots. cant decide right now. This pic is before i scraped and sanded all of the rust out. that has been done now.
