Amazing picture as always!

I'll probably feel the same way after a while but im really excited about the new job.. building and welding axles all day :eek:

Well it looks like the welding practice and hard work has paid off. I just got a job in west jordan as a MIG welder . Can't decide if im going to like the city or not but I guess im about to find out

are these standard TJ width or what is the total WMS? and are they 5x4.5?

can't wait to see the finished hitch, it looks great so far

another vote for mitch here

can you send me some more pictures? four35-six50-eight232

Awesome, looking forward to see how well it works for you.

No, I really appreciate the feedback. yes, this is an offroad trailer and will be pulled exclusively behind my LJ or my WJ.

It is that same as any other coupler, correct. Im sure I could get away with a ball hitch or even a pintle but I figure making this one the first time will be nice to have if I ever need it. It seems cheap enough to build and a lot of the parts I have to order come in pairs of 2 so I will...

ah, I see what you mean.. those are all valid points. However, I don't really see any of them being much of a problem. The main idea behind it is the anti-theft which it will be great for that. I don't plan on anyone pulling the trailer besides friends or family.. so they will all have access...

I don't think I quite follow what you are saying...

I've been doing some research on 3-axis hitches and I am going to attempt to build this one to save a little bit of money. Looks like I should be able to source the parts for around $60-$70 with shipping. I found the hitch here: http://tventuring.com/trailerforum/thread-65.html Im trying...

Made some good progress on the trailer last weekend. My MIG skills aren't anywhere near what I can do with stick but the trailer should work just fine. I bought some steel for the tongue that still needs to be welded on, but I ran out of time.

Yeah, it was like $86 for the custom cut. I had them move the wheel openings back 1", the rockers extended 1" to match, the fuel location moved 1" and had them add cut-outs for the stock tailgate and had them remove the spiders on the back of the corners.

Still some body work to be done, but not much. It is a little hard to tell but these corners and rockers have 1" more stretch than Poison Spyder's Daddy longlegs.

for the price you are asking.. a lot of people would prefer a JK or JKU or even a JKUR with more miles. It does have very low miles and looks very well taken care of but in this economy and with how many other wranglers are out there.. i doubt anyone is going to pay your asking price. if I...

Welcome to RME, glad you found your way over here. How are you liking the soft top and wheels I traded you for your hardtop? Edit: here is a fairly recent pic of your LJ right after we installed the soft top. and here is a recent pic I stole off instagram *I use photobucket to upload...

Thanks for the suggestions, ill look up those places and see what I can find. Edit: the 1"/3" rectangle tube I could use 20' and the 1" square tube I could use 20' so that should be easy. 2.5" square I could use about 10' 2" square tube I could use about 10'

Yours will be done sooner than mine especially since I leave the country this month. Hopefully we should be able to wheel towards the end of summer!
