G'day from WA
« on: April 19, 2014, 08:39:18 PM »
After heeding the call for lurkers to post up, figured I should pop in here and introduce myself...
I'm Steve, live in Perth, work all over the state.
Drive a 94 GXL 80s Cruiser, have a soft floor camper for family trips and a swag for solo trips.
Plan on building a new trailer soon and some of the tips and tricks from here will definitely be getting copied.
Cheers

Cheers Guys
BD, I have a PMX(china) tent top that I have fitted to a 7x5 offroad trailer.
Works ok but the trailer is really to wide for my liking. Way wider than the 80.
The plan is to build my own to suit. Problem is there are so many good idea's on this site that I keep wanting to include in my design,
that it might end up being a triple axle monster to fit them all in !!

Welcome Steve

When you do decide to build, don't forget to post up some piccies in the relevant threads.

Don't be afraid to ask questions either.

Are you on Facebook? If you are, the Forum has a Facebook Page (follow the link in my signature).
