What's your favorite add-on for trailers?

[Mountainhwy4]

I'm building a slide-out 'wash station' in the galley underneath the counter right now that has 2 cut outs for the collapsible wash basins to make it easier when we do dishes. I'll post pictures of it later when I'm finished.

It got me thinking of any other ideas for nice practical add-ons for trailers that can add functionality, utilize space better or even just give a little more peace of mind when camping and don't want to put as much effort into [ ].

Anybody have any neat things they've put into their trailers to make their lives a little easier (or just cool things to show off)?

The flip out kitchen with the flip down pantry door/counter is my best ever idea and I have to give full credit to Vickie !

* I have no favorite modifications...it's like choosing a favorite child or pet...I love all my mods (or I remove them!).

* from another post Semi-unique features (see my gallery and posts for detailed photos)

• 1. onboard generator on swivel/slide-out tray (+ aluminum fuel supply tank)
• 
  
  
• 2. aluminum tongue box on locking slide platform (for spare tire access)
• 
  
  
• 3. interior permanently-mounted A/C unit, located in rear bulkhead, with right-angle ducting (for secure operation with hatch closed)

•

• 4. drop-down rear stabilizers (made from steel pipe and pipe clamps)
• 
  
  
• 5. slide-in door barricades ( 3/4" oak dowels...or aluminum square tube..., and thick-walled aluminum holding brackets)
• 
  
  
• 6. "industrial kitchen"-type stainless shelving on stainless hinges (for external front and side rack storage)
• 
  
  
• 7. overhead-mounted grab-handles inside (to aid movement inside the cabin...bad back!) no actual pictures found

• * There have been more mods that I've made to adapt the trailer for my use: an inside-to-outside hideaway urinal (for very bad nighttime weather), an active suspension/shock absorber substitute, and a dual set of tongue jacks (a "removable" wheeled jack, and a "permanent" scissor jack) for different terrain & needs, among others. And, I modify something after every trip.

Galley slide outs, and the rack mounted awning. No more pop ups.

Galley lights. These are repurposed landscape step lights. The battery to run them is mounted to the ribs in between.



A wind chime. Just because.



A harbor freight hitch basket mounted on the tongue.



The basket in use. The PVC pipe holds radio antennas. The bike rack holds the spare and is mounted using a trailer hitch meant to bolt onto a old school pickup step bumper.
