Very nice and clean! I have to ask, what are you pulling that with? I assume you bought a old army trailer and converted it. Although it would be cool to make one of those from scratch.

Superior - I bought an old military trailer frame and put this trailer together. I lost the 'before' pictures when my lap top crashed. Thanx for the response.

I am pulling it with a 1999 Ford 1/2 ton pickup.

That's a smart rig, and well organized! The "smart" shows in laying down the O2 bottle in a space that would otherwise be poorly used!
I assume you're showing it "all up", and are aware it's illegal to pull it with the bottles attached/un-capped.
If I ever get the opportunity to build a mobile rig, I think I'll use that as a model. Nicely done!

I should have known that, but honestly I didn't think of it. I will know for when I get to make a mobile rig!

Great Job Robson!
Fantastic, well thought-out layout, with important things in easy reach (i.e. fire-extinguisher).
Super cool unit you got there. Hope you get lots of work and keep those appliances busy.

Surge brakes?
Did you convert the lights and such to 12 volt?

Yes it has surge brakes and the lights are 12v. Heavy built trailer, M116A3 model. Hand brakes for each wheel. Heavy axle and springs. Thanx

That is an awesome trailer. Very well laid out. What is the deck height?

Mighty nice! Any specific reason you started with that style of trailer other that it looks totally awesome?

Probably because it was cheap and heavy duty? Govliquidation.com is a good source for those
