Project Offroad Camper Many of you may have seen my last build/conversion at the following THREAD. Since the offroad caravan has found a new home with a wonderful couple I have been working on my new project.
I have not built this one. I have designed this custom one of a kind camper and had it meticulously built. With the look towards just couple touring, we needed a camper, small toy carrier and finally product carrier for moving stock to shows for the sideline business. Build sheet as follows:

Look forward to seeing it evolve, sounds like something i could use too. Are the hubs being custom made or imported? I realise it will be small but are you planning on putting on brakes?
Glad you found a good home for the last one. Im trying to gradually convince my wife that we need a camper trailer. It worked once with the tyres,( i dont really know how) but she suggested "shouldnt you have a 2nd set of wheels and tyres for 4wd'ing?" "Dr says I need a backiotomy!" |

The same (hubs) stud pattern I was referring to. Suspension system including electric brakes is from Vehicle Components and the hitch is a DO35 from the same company. This unit is on the road and basic finished, looking forward to showing the build. |
My first sketch of the trailer. No pull out kitchen or fridge box in this one though.

Consider building the wheels inboard. That's what I did with my camper. It makes it so much roomier. Or you can use that extra 300mm each side for storage compartments - accessible from either the inside or outside (like a Patriot camper). I find it also gives me better driveability because I can see the limits of the trailer easier and don't get caught-up on the guards as much.

If I wished to add storage in the future these areas could be used but with the storage room with have I don't think it will be necessary. |
