I've thought about doing something similar myself and I've just finished a welding course through TAFE so I'll be following the build. Just remember, the welds don't have to look good to be effective and an angle grinder can make most things look better.

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

Haha. Do you best and grind the rest 😝

@deanrobinson2149 Год назад

Hell yea theres an audience for this content! Been talking about it for at least 12 months and had so many ideas! Keen to see your ideas too

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

Hahaha. Well I’ve got the content for you then 😝. The inside fitout is where I’ll shine as it’s back to my skill set 😝

That’s the quickest and cheapest 4” lift I’ve seen lol Great fun getting out of your comfort zone all the answers are on U Tube Being a draftsman I nut everything out on a computer in 3D right down to the details, there’s no guesswork With that skill I built an ALI boat and trailer and just finished a whole house except plumbing and wiring, every day your doing stuff you have never done b4 I would get a frame welded up and rivet Ali sheet to the frame similar to T Van Looking forward to the series

@troythompson5346 Год назад

Thanks for the content. I have been thinking of doing the same thing for years. Also loved the 200 series drawers and fridge slide.

The inside of the trailer will be an interesting vid. It’s ganna be a big fitout.

@worthy_escapes Год назад

So, I had a very similar 8x5 that I had planned to do something similar with for nearly 6 months. But with Covid, a lot of people started selling off camper trailers with damaged tents on top. I sold my trailer for more than I payer for it (5yrs ago) and bought a camper for less than I sold mine for. Then through the tent out. The advantage here is it came with water tank and pump, off road suspension, over ride brakes, tailgate kitchen and gas/jerry holders. Still in the build and will be taking it to BRB as well.

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

I did think about doing the same in regards to the trailer itself but decided to just stick with what I had. Only time will tell if I’m right or not. Come say hi if ya see me at the bash

@WheelsNdrills Год назад

Can’t wait for this build 🤙

@NasTimeAdventures Год назад

Now I know how to change an axle for the kayak trailer I'm building. Thanks mate. Can't wait to see this build.

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

Surely a man of your talents already knew how to do that 😝

@NasTimeAdventures Год назад

@Australian 4x4 Adventures Nah. I just look smart.

@warreng3142 Год назад

Welding steel is one thing, welding gal is another, if you plan to do so, wear long sleeve shirt and gloves because it will spit everywhere, secret is to remove the top layer of gal first, use lots of anti-spatter and recoat with cold galv 😎😎 easy as, yes I am a boilermaker by trade. Good luck mate 👍👍

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

Luckily for me I don’t have to really weld to the gal trailer part. It’s mostly the canopy I’m making on top of it really. But there is some so thank you for the tips.

@coleEmmm96 Год назад

Great video Steve and toby

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

@just_dave Год назад

I did a similar build with a 6x4 box trailer The biggest asset changes I did was Changed slipper springs to double ended same weight And extended the drawbar Did the Gibb and everything else I want it to do no worries 👍

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

I’m definitely looking into a suspension upgrade once it’s all finished and I can see the overall weight

@louiskudlak2241 Год назад

Looking forward to the build buddy, love to learn welding myself, so handy when building, good luck

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

Don’t follow me for welding tips hahaha

@bradkark Год назад

You need to keep an eye on the U bolts once they have been off. The spring pack will settle over time, especially on bad roads. After doing this on my caravan I used to tighten the nuts every week or so. Eventually they stop moving.

@GTFOadventure Год назад

I done similar had to upgrade axle and add electric brakes 750kg isn’t much when u add frame roof tent battery water fridge etc they get heavier fast, good luck mate always fun making it ur way

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

Yeah I’m ganna struggle to keep it light

@shanenorwell8580 Год назад

Great idea mate. At the end of the day if your changing hubs it’ll cost bugger all more to put electric brakes on at the same time. Worth doing it now rather than buying stuff you won’t use later.

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

I’m 99% sold I’m ganna upgrade axel with elec brakes Eps 2 I say that.

@Pumped-koala Год назад

I’ve just finished mine. My trailer is a 7x5 off-road from bonanza trailers. Mine is based around the dot trailer, one of my mates said it’s a MOT 001 as most of the parts and materials came through the mail. Hence mail order trailer

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

Hahaha. MOT for the win 😂. Most of my parts are coming in via the mail as well.

@shreckm6470 Год назад

Before you leave mate replace the cheap Chinese bearings they will fail l have the same trailer and cooked one within 1500 km an that was after repacking them when I got the trailer.

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

In episode 2 I say I’m 99% ganna change over the axel and hubs with elec brakes. So will order it with some good bearings too.

@OnCountryWithMick Год назад

Im slowly working on an old Traidies Trailer that I picked up a few years back. Had 31's when I got it with steel rims, have put the same wheels and tyres onto it that are on my Pajero so I have extra spares on the trailer when using it. Maybe something to think of, same wheels and tyres you run on the car (when it arrives). My plans with storage is similar with a false floor but not the full height of the trailer body (My side walls are taller) with a fridge and water tank inside but over the axle and batter over the front. I hope to have a spare on the back (Doesn't have a drop down tail gate) to balance the weight. I'm going to make hatches in the floor to store things under it and access things like the water tank and pumps but still be able to carry things like fire wood, tent, camp chairs etc on top strapped down.

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

Weight will be the biggest key in any build. Keen to see how you go with it.

@OnCountryWithMick Год назад

@@Australian4x4Adventures cheers mate. Hopefully get it done before too long. Might have to teach myself to weld lol

@paulhudson4481 10 месяцев назад

Great idea for a series mate. Lots of people can't go out a spend big buck's these day's. Looking forward to your idea's/plan. Don't need mega buck's to have a fun weekend. One thing i notice with Tobbs in the back, you are putting the fold down struts in right? 😃👍 Keep it up mate, gonna follow along. Congrats for taking on this project.

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

Thanks mate. I was going to do a fold down strut but I think I’m ganna go lift up doors with pull out drawers/tables. Then the doors act as awnings as well

@nikkimolloy7210 Год назад

So do we

@blackshroud Год назад

Great project mate! Hope it goes well. Just be aware that flipping the axle like that is going to ruin the camber on your axle (theres a bend the axle)

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

I do plan on upgrading the axel to something bigger and with electric brakes soon enough. So I will either get ones that suits being that way or maybe even get a drop axel

@blackshroud Год назад

@@Australian4x4Adventures good plan :) Complete axle kits with brakes are cheap as chips these days.

@patrollocal Год назад

Nice project Steve. I've done similiar with a 6x4. I don't have your skills when it comes to cabinet making nor is mine as fancy as what you plan to build :) Not sure where you are located but I found Melsteel in Hallam was excellent pricing on steel supplies if you haven't purchased anything yet. Good luck with the build!

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

Hahaha. I’d hardly call mine fancy but thank you anyway. I already got the steel from steel solutions near me in bayswater.

@smallaam6191 Год назад

you could put the stock Y62 rims and wheels on it

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

I did think that but I plan on keeping the stock wheels for the car for a while.

@BenMitro Год назад

Great project! You have around 350 kg of payload to play with (750kg all up weight allowed for an unbraked trailer, and allowing 400kg for the empty trailer). This means you want to think carefully about what you put in it (stay legal) and also where you will put it - for stability. Robert Pepper has a few great videos on trailers and towing you may want to have a look at. I have the exact same single axle trailer, except mine has brakes and is rated at 1400kg (I think the difference is the brakes, tyres and springs), so I've started building it as a camper trailer...unfortunately, I'm too old to do much these days so the project has stagnated. Maybe I'll simplify it to something I can achieve? In any case, watching you build this may spur me on! 🥴

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

I do plan on getting a axel upgrade which will include brakes. I figured that out in episode 2 haha.

@BenMitro Год назад

@@Australian4x4Adventures Ah ha! A peak into Ep 2!! :)

@kevinryan7649 Год назад

Absolutely stocked your doing this as I would like to give it a go, just one question how much weight are you able to add to the trailers tare on this one

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

I don’t know the original weight so not sure how much I can add legally. I plan I weighing the trailer once it’s finished to make sure it’s legal or if I need to upgrade stuff. It will all be explained in a future vid so keep an eye out.

@SHOCKcustoms Год назад

Have done this same mod convert a box trailer for offroad use. Quick tip but Essential, add red locktite to your u-bolts on the Axel. The nylock nuts will come loose as they've been removed and retensioned a couple of times. 29 inch tyres work well I've found and load rated tyres are a bonus

@timdunn2387 Год назад

Let's just see if it can be done.👍

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

Yeah I’m thinking the same 😂

@peterryan7340 Год назад

Would you use a Duoetto MK2 for hot water since no gas on board???

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

I had thought about a hot water service but I don’t think I wanna go that far with it. The trailers being built for quick weekends not extended trips where a lot of hot water is needed. Having said that I’m not ruling it out for a future upgrade

@sjb7339 Год назад

As another has stated in the comments get an axle with the next weight category it will save you money in the long term which is what I have done with my M416 mil trailer here in UK and I know you said you have your steel already but there is some box section thats stronger and lighter rather than your bog standard 40 by 40 by 1 or 2 mil if I could remember the name I would tell you perhaps someone out there knows what it is got a UK sub

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

Yeah I do plan on upgrading the axel and bearings. That way I can get elec brakes as well. In ep 2 I say that. ( out in a few weeks )

@user-up6pd3hc1v 7 месяцев назад

Hey mate, great series, wondering what size steel tube your using for the main frame cheers mate 👍

@Australian4x4Adventures 7 месяцев назад

It was a 40x40 3mm

@user-up6pd3hc1v 7 месяцев назад

@Australian4x4Adventures Perfect, exactly what I'm using, thanks mate! 👌

@sdrhodes82 Год назад

Question : Won't the weight of the springs/on the springs damage the axle once it's under load or if overload once you have put the axle beneath the leaf springs? Isn't that the reason the axle is above the spring and not below? I don't claim to know, genuine question...

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

It’s the same both above and below for stress on the axel. Where it becomes difficult is some axels have camber built into them so it will throw that out.

@newport5504 Год назад

Wats the trailers tare weight? And trailers max weight didn’t see you mention it out of curiosity

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

Max weight of the trailer is currently set at 750kg based on the axel load limit. The trailer construction is too for 1.6t but it’s a grey area in the law due to there being no real regulation on it. It just gets classified as “ home made “. As long as the axel , tyre and rims meet regs you’re in the clear ( in Victoria)

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

It’s not going too bad for me. Few bad welds and a few good ones.

@martywatto3005 Год назад

Ummm, did you just literally flip that axle over? As in the mounting plate that was on the bottom of the axle is now on the top? Axles are bowed with the high point in the middle, so that when you add load the wheels are straight. Flipping the axle the other way leads to poor handling and premature tyre and bearing wear. Probably should have welded new plates and kept the axle the right way up.

@deebee5236 Год назад

Good luck staying under 750kg

@Australian4x4Adventures Год назад

@@Australian4x4Adventures you didn’t sound so sure in your last vid. I recently turned a wind up camper into an off-road version. I was gobsmacked by the increase in tare weight. If you put bigger drawbar and axle under it, it be silly not to increase the gtm and atm as much as possible
