DrKerry Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 (edited) Been tinkering with this. Being mostly scratch built while using some kit parts.... springs and a Les are from the Lindberg Dodge L700 trailer kit and re worked into a pivotable suspension. Draw bar is Evergreen and is functional. right now I'm building the bunks that go on top of the trailer and rig. This will have an Autocar rig in front of it when I'm done with both!! brake lines are plumbed and need to run lines to the front!!! Second pic with rear slid forward Trailer bunk mount... Bunk mount going onto truck trailer as it sits now.... tell me whatcha think on it!!!!!! Edited December 29, 2017 by DrKerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrKerry Posted August 5, 2017 Author Share Posted August 5, 2017 Thanks all, having fun building this!!!!!!! Air lines aren't to hard to do. I don't know if these areto scale but I'm using the cords from ear plugs from where I work.... I've used them for fuel lines on Top Fuel dragsters too!!!! These will be painted over when I paint the trailer!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrKerry Posted August 6, 2017 Author Share Posted August 6, 2017 Got some paint on it today, it will be weathered and worn as it goes together!! Front bunk laying under trailer. Still deciding if I want it mounted to a fifth wheel or build a swivel plate and mount directly to the frame!!?? Autocar rig will be two tone white and the green this is in.....

DrKerry Posted August 20, 2017 Author Share Posted August 20, 2017 I'm combining this thread with the Autocar rig as they are being built to go together... this is where stuff is now!!!!! Autocar chassis with extension.... using Mack suspension as suspension from Autocar was used under another project!! Autocar was GotNitro's which I acquired not to long ago!!!! Up next is where the Peerless trailer is at!!!! Both bunks are built now.... Autocar bunk Peerless... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
