What is the length of your camper trailer, from hitch to tail lights?
Converting my tray top camper to a camper trailer, & need some ideas.
Thanks for your input.

Drawbar on my offroad trailer is 1800 & tray 2400. Avoid the temptation to have a long drawbar with too much storage as this adds to the ball weight & limits ramp over. Easiest solution for you would be to fabricate a drop side trailer avoiding the need to change anything on the camper maintaining it's resale value.

My TVan with long drawbar is 4.9M; Previous model TVans were available with short drawbar were 4.5M. The longer drawbar models have lower ballweight (by about 10kgs).
But Track Trailers have a new product that might suit you. Its a trailer with teh MC2
suspension and you can add anything you like to it (such as your traytop camper). Its caalled TrackMate and all the info is on their website:
