    "Wingin' it" 4x6-ish Trailer Thread

    I'm thinking you're going to want to move those shackle hangers forward. those springs aren't going to flex much unless you've got a big load in the trailer so it's going to be pretty bouncy the way you have it now. Here's where I set mine.

    Thanks Greg. It's got a few things to work on still but it's slowly coming together.

    Update. Had the new "work" decals done to the cruiser today. Turned out nice IMO. Not too flashy but noticeable. . . . .

    The only thing he has added is new tires. It was well built by my neighbor before he sold it. Very lightly used with low miles too. Great truck.

    Box Rocket 1995 FZJ80 Build

    I finally got a shakedown run with the new 80 over the weekend. A couple weeks before I bought the cruiser my brother-in-law also bought one. He bought a really nicely built LX470 from my next door neighbor. So both of us needed to get some dirt miles on the new trucks and see how they were...

    It will display the maps from the phone so if you use google maps or whatever on your phone it will display that.

    Big props to Ratio AV for some help with interior goodies last night. New Pioneer touchscreen DVD/HD Radio deck in the dash with Bluetooth. As well as a dropdown DVD (10.3" display) with wireless headphones in the back for the kids. The overhead unit is 1080p with SD Card, USB, RCA and HDMI...

    "Expedition" 3/4 M101 Cargo Trailer Build

    The bow that extends out for the canopy on the tent should be at about 45* and support the upper corner of the canopy and the vertical sides will hang down. Common mistake to extend it straight out flat the first time. Looks great otherwise.

    Box Rocket 1995 FZJ80 Build

    Few small updates. I was having some steering wobble but had a good alignment so I got looking at the brakes and the new wheel spacers. I took the wheel spacers off last night and so far the wobble seems to have gone away. I'll re-install them later and see what I can figure out. The brakes...

    "Wingin' it" 4x6-ish Trailer Thread

    A couple thoughts. As you know a longer tongue will make it easier to back up the trailer. Shorter will make it more maneuverable. Personally, for an offroad trailer I do what I can to match the distance from the rear axle of the tow vehicle to the axle on the trailer and have that distance as...

    "Expedition" 3/4 M101 Cargo Trailer Build

    Looking good. A few gussets would be a good idea, just speaking from experience. The good news is your tent should be delivered today. I won't get home until later so I would need to drop it off tomorrow morning, or you're welcome to come grab it. My wife should be home all day. Delivery is...

    Sub'd. Nice work with the hammer and dolly. That is a skill I have never developed and I admire those who can do it. Stoked to see what you do with this trailer.

    Box Rocket 1995 FZJ80 Build

    I'll try to snap a couple pics, but mounting was pretty simple. There are scab plates welded to the frame and the sliders welded to the frame plates. With a big gusset on the top of the leg where it attaches to the frame. Yes, but the 4XInnovations sliders are not available for a Cruiser. I...

    Seriously. Especially for the cruisers. Slee sliders are $900-$1000. Metal Tech ones are $900. Those are two of the more popular options. Don't get me wrong, they are both very nice, but I couldn't justify spending that when I know there is something that works just as well for a fraction of...
