The DIY Camper Trailer Build is now officially finished! In this episode we take the overlanding rig down to a local weigh bridge to see how much it weighs and the results are shocking!!
This build was a lot more than I had originally planned for a camper trailer but I am so glad it had come this far because bloody look at the thing! It was turning heads left right and center!!
Now time to plan a trip away in it!! Yew!

  • It's crazy how quick weight adds up. Looking forward to the next video series installing brakes and upgrading the capacity! :p

  • Gr8 job mate, love the build & series. I have never had electric brakes, but I guess they would help control a lot better in slow, steep 4wd decent type scenario’s. Good vids. Cheers

  • You have done a good job. After 20 years in the army I never rolled one. And they do float. I have rowed them down many a river. Strapped Jerry cans on the outside. We called them a 1 ton trailer. I also daisy chained 6 of them together. Well done

  • As the owner of a 6 by 4 camper trailer, yours is good. I took a standard 6 by 4 trailer, had a canopy made for it, added King Quiky Rooftop tent and a set of 4 by 4 drawers. I have a 120 amp battery and 40 litres of water in 4 plastic cans. But I like yours. Happy camping. You never know, we just might meet up one day.

  • because that's a landrover trailer it has a fixed lunette eye and the land rovers have a rotating pintle hook which is other way around to normal. normally you have a fixed pintle hook and a rotating lunette eye. the way you're setup both are fixed which won't be an issue unless you get the trailer on a steep enough side angle to bind the hitch, or worse case you roll the tralier and it tips the nissan as well or just breaks the trailer or tow bar.
