Now that is a cool trailer I can see many of uses for one like that From hunting and fishing to locking up the kidds in lol ...Hey run cable to it and they may go on their own

 

[army_nurse]

no cable needed just put in a xbox or a Wii and they will only come out for snacks and bathroom breaks. I plan to add a mil mep of some kind maybe a 710 or something of the like. so if anyone has one or any suggestions let me know i would like to have it be able to stand alone. am going to do some solar panels to charge a 12v battery bank to run my Ham radios stand alone as well. and feel free to make some suggestions on addons and the like.

I love your set up. I just picked up an S250 and plan to do the same thing you did. I would love to see and hear more about how you mounted it to the M116. I have a good M116A2 / M101A2 frame that I want to do the same thing with. Any additional pic's and suggestiins would be appreciated. Thanks, Joe

Nice I would add a pair of fenders to finish it off and keep the slop off the shelter.

and or maybe some truck bedside/hinge down tool boxes/water tank... fore and aft of each wheel to "fill the gap" but it looks like a fine build sofar.

In my State, you would need mud flaps and side clearance lights, to be highway legal. Side tool boxes would take the place of the mud flaps, and be a place to hang the side lights.
