Definitely keep the lunette. Other than a little bit of noise, there is no negative to it. I like your simple rear stabilizers. Any reason you are keeping the original front landing leg? How does that tarp hold up to TX freeway speeds? I thought I had a good set up but I was proven wrong at...

Looks good. I added 20' of E Track to my 101 as well.

Tarps arrived from mytarp.com. Need to play around with how to rig them but they look good so far. Ended up getting a large tarp to cover the entire trailer :) and smaller ones for just the sides and rear if a quick set up is needed. I plan to make some awning legs that attache directly to...

Nice simple modification. Why so much channel on top? Do you have an higher tow vehicle?

Nice trailer Mark, do you have a close up pic of the tongue?

Did you service the bearings or brakes while you had it torn apart?

The stock pins and cables were a no go in my book. At highway speeds the chains would beat up the trailer and slowly work the pins out. Of course there was no option for holding the tailgate level. My goals were to: - Have the tailgate cable and pins separate so there would be no chance of...

Thanks. I put some on the inside as well. Coupled with the clip in E-track ratchet straps, securing cargo is a snap. .

Nice restoration. I went black on my trailer as well. Most of the work was done in my drive and the neighbors enjoyed watching and seeing the progress. Once it is complete I will probably park it on the street so all of the curious people can take a closer look.

Thanks for the offer. Ended up making my own. I like to think they are improved over the OEM stakes :)

Mark, your build is an inspiration to many. I plan to cover the top only. I made some awning stakes and plan to use the rack to attach tarps off the sides/rear.

Thank you. I look forward to seeing your build. Well, counting the stuff I sold/scrapped off the trailer it really only cost me $150..... The welder was a bit more than $500..... Also had to buy a new grinder that would accept the razor disks I used to make the stakes. I do have a very...

Sorry, sold them a while ago. Someone got a smoking deal for $150. The rubber was brand new and still had the teets.

Wire. Since these welds are at eye level and not very critical, looks are more important :)

A little more progress. Still learning to weld but ran a few beads I thought were decent.

What do you need the serial number for? You don't need one to get a plate for it. How does that CRV pull it? How is the receiver mounted to the CRV. We have one and I have been wanting to add a hitch (non plans to pull my 101 with it though :))

Check out S250 shelters.

Made a little more progress. Took 14 cans to paint everything I could reach with a rattle can. Flat black is a very forgiving paint :) Hopefully I will finish the rack this week. Plan is to make it pretty modular so I can add/swap out side panel. For now, I mostly want it for supporting...

Well, finally got around to making the 4 stakes I wanted. Material used was .120 wall 2"x2" tubing. Hopefully I will finish the "bow" parts this week. Took one razor disk per stake and a lot longer than I expected it would to cut and fit each stake. I am glad I went with the .120 wall over...

Can you push the bow out from the bottom?
