off road trailer (no tent)

A couple of customers of mine have a Holiday brand made in Vic. Seem good quality and another has Tuff Trailer made in Riverstone Sydney. I like the Tuff Trailer quality.
Hope this helps.

I bought a 7x4 Offroad trailer from Modern Trailers in Adelaide. Good welds and strong checkerplate. Paid $1850 for it and it was the best price between Adelaide and Melbourne

I then fitted a TREG hitch and did a springover to accommodate 265/75/16 wheels.
It has now done about 10,000km and is going strong. I have towed it off road and into the heart of the Simpson without any dramas.

I carry my tents, camp beds, gas bottles and some water and a load of fuel in jerries

a freind had a trailer made for him and he built it up from there, he has towed it across the simpson, the Cape and to W.A. it is loaded with all his carpentering tools and camp gear so it must have been made quite well, BUT i will have try and get in contact with him to find the manufacturer sorry about the build up. There is a company at murray bridge S.A. Meigel Bros. that make very good trailers and will build to your specs( i nearly went down the same path as u).

I should probably add the tow vehicle is a 3.0 patrol,
Nathan and trailers 2000 are available in town, any feedback on these would be great.

Cackles,

Beetle Exchange in Fyshwick ACT are building my new trailer.

8 x 5 Offroad
1.5 metre drawbar
8 x Jerry holders.
Treg Hitch
Checkerplate floor and mudguards
Strengthened Frame
Electric Drum brakes
Pneumatic Jockeywheel
Greasable pins on leafspring shackles both front and rear
Brand new tyres (many trailers come with 2nd hand tyres - it also pays to check the construction date on the wall of any tyre as your brand new tyres may already be out of warranty)
Cargo tie rails front and rear.
$4500

It may seem a little expensive but I wanted to spend my money locally......although I suspect these trailers may be made in Sydney and shipped in.

Just wanted to give you an idea of what you can expect for the money.

Cheers...Taz

Cackles,
Had mine built by Aspinall Trailers in Archerfield.
Another good one is Trailerworld in Springwood.

Both will custom build to your spec. Found both quite good to deal with.

Hi y'all,

have been reading your replies with interest, found one in town, new and never been used so I will have a cautious look at it tomorrow.
Would have to upgrade suspension a fair bit so not too sure.

In the meantime I have been to
Lifestyle camper trailers

It looks like the sort of solid starting point that we can build in the future, price looks almost too good to be true.

If anyone would like to give some feed back it would be great.

thanks for the pics Willem, It looks like it would be an answer to our problems.
Partner started showing me campers today and got me thinking a little too much I think, but then again I like to be thorough.
