Don't mind one bit you stealing ideas for your own trailer. I just hope they are the good ones. As far as welding, yes I am using the MIG (GMAW) process and NO it is not the "tack, tack, tack" method. It is the squeeze the trigger once and run a continuous bead method. There is a bit of torch...

The big brown truck stopped by the shop and dropped off some trailer goodies. I bought some accessories for my E-Track that is going on the trailer. These items were made by Erickson and seem to be pretty good quality of what I can tell so far. I also decided that I am going to go with LED...

Awesome pictures and very nice buggy.:thumbs: Mike.

Personally, neither my wife nor I have a Facebook account. I figure I am on a few forums that I am pretty active on and trying to be more active on this one so that should be enough for me. I hear about waaaaayyyy too much drama on Facebook for my liking and I like to keep my life drama free...

Yep, he started talking about it off and on about a year ago. However, since I have been talking about putting either a Hemi VVT or an LS in mine he has been talking about it even more lately. I don't know if or when I will get around to it but I sure would like to give my 2011 a little kick...

Awesome build. I better not let my son see this as he has been talking about putting a Hemi in his 04 LJ since it is now his second vehicle. He bought a 2002 ECSB Duramax as his primary vehicle so the LJ is a possible candidate for an upgrade. Subscribed. Mike.

My wife told me that there are a lot of garages/shop pictures on there as well as welding and machining pictures, but I just can't bring myself to investigate on my own. Mike.

It could be the ABS pump/module. On the early Kelsey/Hayes systems I have seen debris get caught in the dump valve and it act just like that. It won't send an ABS light either because the earlier systems didn't monitor actual dump valve positioning. Mike.

That's it, time to give up your man card.:laughing: Mike.

Last night I was able to get the 2x8's cut for the new utility trailer I am building. Nothing too exciting. Hopefully tonight I will be able to get the spreader bars welded in and if time allows, my E-Track rails welded in as well. Mike.

Nice looking welds and very good progression. Keep it up. Mike.

Understood. I will just let them have their time together.:laughing: Mike.

Nice job. Like the saying goes, "necessity is the mother of all inventions". Many times the smallest job can be made easier and neater with a "special tool". Mike.

Those CT90's are cool little trail bikes. I have a guy that has a couple that he takes to Quartzite with him every winter. He and his wife ride them all over down there and then when he gets back in March-ish he brings them to me to clean up and get ready for the next season. A few years back...

Thanks guys. I appreciate the comments. Mike.

Wow. That's harsh. Tough group. Mike.

Yep, I know what you mean about the chrome going to shit. My last set I picked up used and couldn't bring them back. I bought a new set of MKW M86 wheels about two years ago and I flat refuse to drive it if the roads are crap. Mike.

Nice lookin' truck. They all need a little TLC after a few years. My 06 Duramax hardly comes out of the shop these days unless I either need a truck or I am bored and the wife and I want to go for a drive in comfort. Mike.

I was going to say an O-ring as they are the most common issues, usually damaged upon installation. However, seeing as how you mentioned that the ARB's have been in the Jeep for 5+ years, I would maybe lean towards a piston issue although rare. Check the air line connection really well prior to...

Technically not Jeep related other than I will tow it on occassion behind my Jeep. I have sold several of our trailers this past year and decided to just keep our 26' Haulmark Edge race trailer and build me a nice sized utility trailer for general use. I also buy/sell motorcycles on occassion...
