Thank you, appreciate it very much! I was thinking maybe putting some reinforcement center pillars but not sure if there would be room with the tent.

Do the side walls rest on the edges when fully closed?

What are the dimensions for driving an ATV on? Would the Polaris Ranger Rzr fit? The 4 seater?

Wheelbase 103.0" (261.6 cm)
Dry Weight 1,255 lbs. (569.3 kg)
Overall Vehicle Size (LxWxH) 130 x 60.5 x 75" (330.2 x 153.7 x 190.5 cm)

I guess I'm up against top deck capacity of 950. Actually, I would be way over. There goes that idea.

Still curious as to fitment.
You could look at it's big brother, the jumping jack trailer.

This is true but what makes this one really attractive is the cost. The JJ is considerably more.

I don't know how I missed this thread earlier, but I'm "that other guy" from the Suzuki forum who you referenced earlier in this thread. I'll be happy to answer whatever questions you may have, but I pretty much summed up the mods I made to it in this other thread.

My wife and I are still extremely happy with our purchase, and now that I have a Jeep to tow it behind, I'm anxious to see what (if any) mods will be needed. It's a tough little trailer, and I still have no hesitation recommending it to anyone who wants a mild off-road-capable trailer right out of the box, or a medium-duty-off-road-capable trailer with a few easy mods.

I hear you, I tried pretty hard to get JJ to come down on their price, but they wouldn't budge. Glad I didn't though, the lifetime's wheels fit in the jeeps tracks and I actually like the tent and bed setup better on the lifetime.

I've been considering upgrading the axle, wheels and tires on it though. I've no doubt that I will before all is said and done.

Appreciate the measurements! That helps a lot with planning. Thank you for taking the time. I'm sure a lot of other people on here appreciate the info too.
