Thread: Ex-Army Camper Trailer

I just bought an ex army trailer and have had second thoughts about hacking into the original body. Mine has a canvas (camoflage) canopy and tube frame, which is extendable up and out the rear. If anyone is interested I may part with the canopy and frame and maybe even the tray body (aluminium). I will be building a hard floor camper tent like on the Cub Campers flip back tent, wheels and original army tyres are going as well. I would be interested to hear from anyone that has done this type of camper conversion. I will see if I can get some pics up.
Tow vehicle is a 93 Disco with a 2003 4 Litre V8 petrol with the 3.5L fuel system, except for Holden HSV Quad Squirter HP Injectors, has a mild Stage 1 cam, Extractors, 2 1/2" exhaust. ZF 4 speed Auto, 4.11 Diffs with ARB Lockers front and rear, 110 Swivel housings and joints, Maxi-Drive axles and flanges F&R, ARB front and rear bars, 12000lb winch, AVM front Bash Plate, Diff guards, ARB Rock slider side steps, 135Litre fuel tank (really needs it), Guards and doors cut and fitted with fibreglass flares to suit 35's, 31x10.5x15's presently fitted, 2" OME lift Springs, Bilstein Shocks and Dampener, Paratus drivers seat, Cargo Barrier and Cupboards with fridge slide, Anderson Plugs for trailer, Dual Batteries. About to fit some 33"'s and have a Unichip fitted and am looking at a LPG setup, maybe with the LPG tank in the trailer. Any comments you have would be appreciated, Regards Frank.

Can you private message me with your number as I will be heading down that way next week.
