Camping Trailer

Post by Fred79 »

Wat begin het as 'n Ex-Army trailer (sankey) is nou my nuwe Kamp Trailer. Ek het nou wel nie die ombouing gedoen nie maar ek gaan nou verder speel met hom. Ek dink ek het 'n heel goeie deel hier opgetel.

1.Ek wil begin deur onstlae te raak van daai groot 33inch tyres en dit vervang met dieselfde as wat ek op die bakkie het 265/75/16
2.Dan moet ek die trailer hoer maak sodat ek my rooftop tent met Annex kan bebruik met die trailer (trailer tent is net te duur hier by ons en ek het klaar 'n goeie roof top tent)
3. Dalk ook silver laat spay soos die bakkie.

Dit lyk goed, Frikkie! :thumbup:

Is die bloue dieslfde trailer as die in die eerste pic? Een ding kan ek jou sê, .... met daai swaar chassis sal jy nie maklik probleme optel nie! :D:

Eenigste ding wat my bietjie sou pla is die tekort aan 'n ordentlikke spasie tussen die wiel en die 'mud-guard'. :think:

Stem saam dat jy hom laat 're-spray' ..... silver soos die bakkie klink reg! ;-)

Ja die trailer is dieselfde as in die eerste pic, die ou het net die tow bar langer gemaak. Die sankey trailers is baie sterk gebou en al hoe meer ouens begin die goed ombou.

Ek is seker as ek kleiner bande gaan opsit sal die N groter gap los tussen die mud guard en die wiel. Die trailer het tot anti roll bars.

Well done, looks good, if the springs are stiff it will be fine. Keep trailer & vehicle wheels the same, as long as the wheels don't damage the trailers when/if it bounces.

Nice bit of work. I'd be curious to know how much you think you saved over buying something like a BushBaby?

Update:

Ek het die groot 33" wheels vervang met iets kleiner. 235/85/16 of steel wheels
Die ou wie se trailer dit was het vir my 'n raam gebou om die tent op te sit.
Het sommer 'n spaarwiel op gesite

Is nou tans besig met die bedrading ens. Ek wil nou die ding klaar maak maar die nog so vrek koud hier by ons.
