Title: long time lurker Brisbane........
Post by: jkrenegade on April 30, 2011, 09:06:23 AM: Hi all,

Just wanted to introduce myself. Been lurking on here for a while now getting ideas from others and trying to decide which way to go with a new camper. I'm not new to campers, had a Castaway full off-road for a few years till situations changed. Well thanks to everyone the new camper is finally under way. Being a shift worker makes it a little easier in some ways and alot more difficult in others (no one wants a grinder going at 2am).
I already have a good trailer witch I use on a regular basis for work, tip runs etc so I needed to make this trailer/camper multi purpose. Anyways what I have decided to do is upgrade the suspension, axle, brakes and hitch build a removable self contained frame for the tent, kitchen etc so I have a usable trailer which can be converted to a camper in a few minutes without much hassle and only have 1 lot of rego (owning 3 jeeps is enough).
Keep an eye out in the build section cos I will be doing a thread on there when I get started.

cheers!!!

But I have to ask 3 jeeps, enough said. ;D
