I have a old square body s-10 bed trailer, I just might have to lift that thing a little and fix it up...These things look badass!

if ur wanting to keep the majority of the body, then keep the front suspension and use a tow bar setup.

Not to bring up and old thread, but how would you go about titling a trailer like this? Because this looks like something I want to do.

By tilting you mean while having still connected to the tow rig you can tilt the body up and the rear end down??

It's a dead thread revival time! I was thinking of doing the same with a 2 door and chopping it at the firewall. Someone mentioned the tongue weight... Here's some food for thought.

In Az it's pretty easy to title them. you can even leave the standard rear axle in place.

here's one we built.

Like this - used a line pic then photo shopped it. A nice little box on the front, and a great place for a spare.

If I can ever find a 2 door carcass for dirt cheap, I'll make me one to match my jeep.
