The plan for this trailer is Explorer type, not a lot of off-roading. First things first; I have it stored about 7 miles from my shop due to space constraints so I have to get the old wheels & tires off and get some "rollers" under it so I can move it back & forth to my shop.Ultimatly I hope to have the wheels & tires match the Jeep. Then a massive clean up, under & over. I have access to a small welder so I will be a) teaching myself to weld and b) patching the holes in the bed. Extend the tongue a bit, either by extension or re-welding a new tongue; this will have to be farmed out. Tongue box for my battery. Water supply on one side of the bed and a tool box on the other. I purchased an OasisII from CCC and will have to fabricate the mounting to the box. I'm going to try and make this a budget build and hoping to bring it in at 1k or less, depending on my ability to "scavenge" what I need. Once I get this project moving I'll start a build thread.
