Had the trailer painted.

Yeah the color don't match the jeep but what do you expect for $100 for sandblasting, paint, and labor. Sure beats the rusted out look it had before.

I asked my dad to pick up the trailer and on the maiden voyage he does this by forgetting the trailer was hooked up to his truck and backing up.
Thanks a lot Dad

Looks good, surprised you aren't able to find paint closer to match the body of your Jeep.

Later on I may repaint it but I'm leaning toward getting it raptor-lined. I just wanted to get rid of the rust and make it look decent.

Looks good!

Since when did John Deere make off road trailers?



Lol, just kidding man. It looks good and you can't beat the price.

Here's a trick when learning to back up. Look over your right shoulder and put your left hand at the top of the steering wheel. If the trailer is going too left/right, move your steering hand to the same side as the trailer is heading.

Remember, small adjustments are best. This is especially true with a short wheelbase and short tongue trailer. Very little input is needed to steer that kind of setup.

What he said. I'm used to longer trailers but you get used to the short trailer with some practice.

What are you going to do to it? are you getting a roof top tent or fab something? ... I want a RTT for my trailer but they are so expensive. ...for good trailer mods check out expedition portal or ih8mud at their trailer section

I did think about selling the trailer but like a friend on here told me that I could never build another trailer for what I paid for this one. If I ever sell it then the price would be a lot more
