So I’ve been looking around for about a year. Reached out to a few selling their trailers and then I threw a Hail Mary and bought some raffle tickets. Then this happened. I won her last weekend, brought her home tonight.

I rotated the coupler 180° and now I don’t need a 7 3/4” drop hitch. Sold the 23Zero RTT to a friend and moved my Eezi-Awn over to the trailer.

I might look for something a little longer to push things a little further away from the bumper.

Thanks to Cyber Monday a 200w suitcase style solar panel has been sourced. As well as a solar controller. Wiring supplies were not on sale so I’ll source those later and write a post on the controller install at that time.

Nice. Do you already have a Lifepo battery in that thing?
