Converting Cargo Trailers into TTTs

Noob here, w/ 6x12

Postby cj13 » Mon Mar 04, 2013 9:10 am

Where do I start, Thank you to the forum members. Ive got a lot of good info & ideas here.
my goal with the trailer was to make it something we could sleep in at the race track. we travel the southeast racing 2stroke gp bikes.
I got the trailer 2 weeks before our 1st race and this is what Ive done so far.
ins is done, the bunks are made and the shelves are 1/2 done.
Ive been working on it at night for a few hours at a time, being a single dad dont leave much free time :)

now if I can get the pics to load from my phone I will share what Ive got done thus far
smart phones dont make smart users(me :? ) might have to get my 11yr to do it for me

thanks Jason

this is the bottom bunk I put it on hinges so I can carry two bikes
the top bunk folds down and I have 3 2x4's that I attach to the two of them and it rest on the the floor. for more support


the other side has a small fold down table and helmet holder / cubby above it

we have used the trailer for racing all year this season, but just now got a break from racing to go camping. We spent the week at henry horton state park in the trailer and had a blast. I now no what the fuss is all about :D on the way home my wife and daughter were already planing the next trip :thumbsup:
we will load more pics of the trailer and our trip soon.
