1) Add hitch, drag trailer via deuce.This sounds great...Just need to figure out how to Drive the deuce and pull the 30" camper at the same time with 4 kids and the wife?????

2) Scrap Trailer, rent cabin
3) Camp in back of truck
4) Put camper in back of deuce. 30" is not that big. (Only 2 1/2 feet)
5) Advise wife that pulling said trailer is for her benefit, No trailer, no comfort.
Edit; 6) If trailer is a 5th wheel, use converter dolly.

One more thing...if I did add a hitch, how would I convert the trailer plug in for lights etc...from 24v Deuve to 12v trailer

There are some threads on that. A number of years ago I picked up a travel trailer for a TX member. He drove his M109A3 to FL to get it. We ended up bolting a pair of military composite lights to the trailer and made a pigtail for the ride home. Had no clearance lights of trailer brakes but the tow went fine. Might want to seriously consider the cabin deal.

I'm in kind of the same shape - thats why I had to rent a camper. Need to get the Rv there along with the jeep on a trailer - wife won't drive the rv or pull a trailer (w/jeep). RV hitch isn't rated high enough to pull trailer w/ jeep. Only solution is to get a duece and put the jeep in the back I guess!

Cabin might be the way! But I was thinking about this. Never tried it, but why couldn't a guy just change the bulbs out to 24V on the trailer. Disable the clerence lights so u don't blow em and go on??? Or simply rig up a secondary set of lights run the wires over top the camper securely and go that way. The 24v park lights on the deuce are no different diameter than a 12v. Just curious???

I have changed the bulbs out and done just what you said Broad.
Another option is to put all LED lights on the camper, 75% of them now a days are omnivolt, and will handle 10-30. Then it is just a plug and go with whatever you pull it with.

That is very doable as is adding multi volt LED bulbs that can run on either. Then just fab an adapter for te plug.
