I have this camper trailer ideal kicking around.
It’s a full custom job not in market so sort of meets that criteria of only build if you can’t buy it..
Sooo...- I care most about what happens above the frame so getting this part built would save plenty of time and design work.
Box footprint is 7.5’x14’ so a 20’ or so sub frame.
Trailer is of ‘pop-up’ variety so low side walls set on deck set on frame.
I am guessing I would have just frame built with axle, springs tongue setup.
I want to go aluminum and the all up weight of rig and gear sup 3k so single axle.
Bent I beam construction would be nice I suppose for frame.
So anyone deal with frame makers for trailers.
Am I saving anything getting a pro shop to put this together or should I just add to list of the things I need to figure out and weld up for this project?
Another approach is just to get a shop to bend the two rails and go from there.
