Pretty slick looking set up. Tongue weight good? Tracks down the road nice? A longer hitch or tongue like that makes for better backing up with it too. One thing I learned, your tow vehicle needs good mud flaps at the rear or you will throw rocks, sand, mud, water, all over your nice Jeep. School of hard knocks. John

Very nice trailer, Dave.  I would love to find a trailer like that.  I've seen these before...are they all homemade or were they ever manufactured for sale? 

Also agree that is a beautiful 3A!

Battleship grey is the color, this was homemade, don't think any were manufactured for sale, pulls great, took the old girl camping last weekend with no trouble,, very little tongue weight but doesn't effect the towing at all,

That is a fine looking trailer.

Any chance you could snap a few more pictures of it?

I need something like that.
