    Shelter mounted on trailer?

    So, I yanked the fenders off my 116 trailer, and did a little hokey-pokey with the tractor hooked to the trailer, and my winch to drag the shelter onto the trailer... then freaked out about how tall it was. Too tall to drag behind the Jeep into the 70 MPH Wyoming cross winds.. I made a last...

    Shelter mounted on trailer?

    8 feet is manageable for me. I could even swap out to smaller tires to further reduce the height, at least until it causes ground clearance issues on the trail. How tall is the s788/1101 combo?

    Shelter mounted on trailer?

    So the s-788 shelter has actual wheel wells..... Could the fenders on the m116a3 just be completely removed? or is there some structure to them that is required? If I could just pull the fenders off, then I could just drop the box on with the wheel wells covering the wheels, removing anything...

    must be the 788, looks like the 1497s wheel well is open to the rear

    Shelter mounted on trailer?

    That's what I was looking for... thanks a ton.

    Shelter mounted on trailer?

    Also... looking at this, it might not be a s-250, as the 250 is just chopped the whole length to allow for the wheels. This one has a cutout....

    Shelter mounted on trailer?

    I did find this in another thread... seems useful. This is the m116, and it's about 3 inches taller due to the tire/wheel swap.

    Shelter mounted on trailer?

    Well, yeah. But, I found not much about the possibilities of the m116a3 and the s-250. both of these are available right now near me on CL/FB. or if there are other trailer/shelter combos I should consider. I like the m116 due to it's lower overall height compared to the m1101... Anyone know...

    Shelter mounted on trailer?

    See. That seems really, REALLY tall. Like 9+ feet tall, judging by the garage door.

    Shelter mounted on trailer?

    Here's what i'm looking at: Both are near me from two different sellers, trailer for 750, shelter for 1500. All of the nearby m1101/2 trailers are three or more times as expensive. If I can mate the two up I'd have a decent camp/overlanding setup that's tough and around 1400 pounds dry. I'm...

    Shelter mounted on trailer?

    For summer camping I'd really like to have the insulation to make A/C an easier option. I have an extensive solar setup I can drop in and an available mini split hvac unit. If it's well insulated, I might be able to run the A/C some or all day on solar/battery power.

    Shelter mounted on trailer?

    Gents, I'm fishing for an idea.... One of my non-military rides is a new Jeep Rubicon 392.... I'm looking to take an extended trip out to Montana and Wyoming in it this summer. I've been looking at either a rugged off-road camper or a simple cargo trailer. A cargo trailer would simply let us...
