The Cat House (Arctic Cat that is), 7x24 Toy Hauler Build.
Posted: Thu May 21, 2015 5:45 pm
I've been a member for a few years and posted a few times. I have read many of the posts saving the ideas and innovations away for my eventual build. Since we have Arctic Cat ATV's and an Arctic Cat Wildcat 1000 SxS the new trailer gets the name "The Cat House". I had posted the question "ramp door vs. barn doors" and have decided to go with the ramp door option. I thought I would post up details of the newly ordered trailer.
Cargo Craft 7x24
3' V nose wedge style
added 12" for a 7' interior
.030 Charcoal Gray
60" extended triple tube tongue
ramp door with extension flap
36" RV door with slider window
RV screen door
13500btu AC with heat strips in the center vent hole
2 added vents, one in front V, one 5' off ramp door
5 alloy wheels with radial tires
5200lb axles, both with brakes, straight for added room under the trailer
6" tubing frame on 16" centers
Walls and ceiling tube frame on 16" centers
All LED exterior lighting
Added LED back up lights
Its a 6 week delivery for the trailer.
Ultimately this will become a true toy hauler/camper with a front bathroom and kitchen area leaving as much open floor as possible but will be done over the next year or more. Plans will be slow going this year as I need to just get it ready to make a haul out to Moab and then Colorado from Georgia in September. Tie downs will be my first priority as we are not using it for camping during the Moab and Colorado trip. Hope to share many pictures of my build in the coming year or so.
