    trailer builder sydney?

    Can someone point me towards a good custom trailer manufacturer in Sydney – I want them build me a tough box- type 4wd trailer that can handle off road and corrugations. I’ll be towing it behind a defender 110 so want same wheels and width. I’m going to attach my own roof top tent to it, so I don’t want a camper trailer as such.
    Cheers, Scoota

    These guys seem to make good trailers. And they do custom ones as well.

    Ditto to the Mario trailers suggestion. They made me a tipping box trailer and it's beauty. Don

    There used to be a manufacturer called P&S Williams who were up in Mangrove mountain, just outide woy woy.
    I've got one of the trailers they built for the NSW Rural fire service, based on a defender trayback, but with toyota square axles.
    I cant find them on the interweb but I recall phoning them last year to replace a spring that broke on the way to Alice Springs (fair enough I suppose) and they seemed around at that time.
    Its a fantastic trailer, very long shank makes reversing easy, mine has two locakble steel cabinets and a water tank and a frame for top loading, not sure how much of that is standard.
    Can post pics of mine if you need
    Its a pity I dont get much use out of mine any more, seeem to have become suddenly settled in Canberra

    The only number I have is 043 741127

    Love the idea in theory - but with my metal working skills (zip) it will have to remain just that. I'm happy to tackle some of the interior design once I have the guts built for me.
