Nice looking setup. Where do you park it in that neighborhood? It looks like your driveway isn't quite long enough.
 
lol, The down fall of cookie cutter boom, we keep it 1 mile down the road at my sister in laws house.

Yeah, that is one of the downsides of those 'planned' neighborhoods. I have a friend in the same situation, and he has to pay to store his 'offsite' when it is not in use. Fortunately, for me, I have plenty of room to store mine at home (either in the driveway, or alongside the house).
 
That A-frame in the back looks awesome!! Can you move that thing outta the way so we can get a better view of it?? :zoom:
 
How long/how much does that thing weigh? Pretty awesome. And does it tow ok power, sway, & safety wise?

26'. 4800 lbs. Towing is great! Keep speed 55 - 60 mph 2200 RPM. Use 4S gear and cruise will hold on flat ground with the converter locked. I'm getting 25 mpg when NOT towing. The pic shows ave. from 200 mile trip home while towing. Braking is very impressive. I use a sway bar even at the slow speeds running (slow and slower). Also using WDH with stock receiver.

Springbar WDH. Did some research with this @3800 lbs. and yes I am amazed at how much crap the better half packs in.

Work hard.....and when the works done....play hard!

Pat,
I have been following your build on Ih8mud and that thing is freaking awesome. You have done a tone of work to make a pile of scrap into something beautiful. In fact your build inspired me to start searching for a trailer of my own. I'm sure I'll be asking more questions as it comes along.

I agree Dusty! I've seen it in Person and it is a pretty sweet set up, well once it's set up that is. :hiding:

C'mon Billy, what else would Pat rather do for 4 or 5 hours? :moon:

Next year we should make a youtube video of the setup and time lapse it down to 2 hrs or so.:lmao:

Thanks Dusty...I'm glad you like it, and if decide you want to do a build and need any advice or help, please let me know.

As you can see... the no talent, peanut gallery are jealous as all hell..:cry2: :lol:


Yea...it takes a while to set up, but after the storms in Gettysburg the last night I was there, I'll take that set up any day...rock solid and dry!
