Wow! That was quite the river save. Nice trailer.
I've got a pal at work who is quite handy with building such stuff and has offered to help me over the next winter, but I'm thinking I might not be able to wait that long. If I do make the trailer, or have it made, I'm thinking that like Tentrax I will use a good strong axle with some identical wheels/tires as on my Rubicon. Also might use a pintel hitch instead of the usual type coupler.
On a side note...the RV folks across the street from Gene's Chrysler has a really cool little camper trailer made locally. It's a "Teardrop" camper that sleeps two. Sort of ugly, but still a cool idea. The teardrop trailer was popular in the 30s and 40s, but has made a comeback in recent times. If it wasn't $7,500 I probably would have bought it today.
