Here's a list of parts from Amazon: Vevor diesel heater 5kw Color tree 1" stainless steel exhaust pipe. This is the extra pipe needed to run out the side of trailer. Amerimax MW/NE/SE 2X3 Galvanized Drop Outlet (for gutters) This is what I used for heat baffle. Better Built 67011386 ATV Tool Box.

So minimal. I love it. This takes care of your needs while keeping almost the entire space to still use as a cargo trailer. Very inexpensive build so you can spend your money on key equipment and electronics. You could fit two full size motorcycles in there still.

Your fuel pump insulation for noise and temp control, try using rock wool. A little pricey but very effective in both uses. I also love the layout. The spartan use of space leaves it open to quick change of use. Very effective.

Thanks for watching. Please like, subscribe and let others know about our channel on your social media. The tire mount I used is : Extreme Max 3004.4553 You can find these on Amazon. You will want to mount it low enough on the rear gate so the tire doesn't interfere when the gate is fully down. Remove decking and place a block of wood sandwiched between outside skin and inside decking. Have fun with your build.🤠

I might get a 97 f250 crew cab short bed 2wd 7.3 diesel. On a trade for my race car/old daily driver 2003 Subaru WRX. If it works out I want to find a bed cap like that and do something very similar for me and my son to start camping together. He's almost three so it's prime time to start taking him fishing 🎣 I can't wait for the memories we're going to make together. I also have an R50 pathfinder we did a ton of work too Including all new suspension and all terrain wrangler tires. The little suv is so much more capable than it's been in a long time. Rear seats fold down so we can camp in there as well if the truck doesn't work out. I wanted to do a small cargo trailer conversion build but I don't have anywhere to keep a trailer right now so all though cool and fun it's not really gonna work out how I wanted it to. Some day I want a small camper trailer. Like a 20ish ft pull behind camper. Some day 😂 we live on the Gulf of Mexico in Texas so a small aluminum boat is much more useful than a camper for us. With all the crazy flooding and weather in our area I could save us in a hurricane Harvey type event if we had a small boat. Hurricane season this year is supposed to be eventful 😢

The Goodyear tires have a service life of 6 years according to Goodyear tires website depending on accumulated road miles. The tires on my trailer were manufactured on the 22nd week of 2020 thus l still have 2 more years of service life left. Other factures that influence tire life are accumulated milage and sun/weather exposure. My trailer is well within tread wear limits, and given that it's always stored inside when not in use tires have minimal exposure to the suns uv rays.

Actually, not all these are the same. This controler works with two different motherboards. And there are more settings as well not mentioned. This controler is capable of slowing pump speed to .8cps , not just 1.4cps. But you have to go deeper into settings to do this. Press * to enter time setting. Keep pressing OK until ____ 4 empty code comes up. Enter code 1688 to enter dealer settings. Off1 is timer start off2 is timer stop. Next is pump speed. To lower pump speed to lowest .8cps sett down arrow. But this will not fully work until next OK setting which is maximum pump speed. For some reason, pump will not achieve .8cps until max speed is reduced to 3cps. Why I don't know, because the original basic controlers you did not have to reduce max speed, but with this new controler it was the only way to get lowest speed. Next OK setting is minimum fan speed. Unless you are using on a high mountain, don't change this, or the next setting which is max speed. These settings change fuel air ratios. You don't really want to change these. Next OK is 12v or 24v. Next OK is 1 or 2 magnets on fan assembally. Next ok change entry 1688 code. You must keep pushing OK until all coding is finished for setting to be memorized. The new blue controler and motherboard only have 6 heat speeds and it's slowest speed is 2cps which is way too fast and too hot for smaller area to overheat. Plus 2cps burns far more fuel. 4l in 24 hours. You must have original mother board for all this to work. The newer boards will not do this. This controler can be used with both mother boards. Newer board can be identified by big plastic "H" channel on parts side of board. I find the lower speed setting much more useful when temperatures are mild 0°C to 15° otherwize it becomes too hot in cab.

This is a great build and a great explanation of what works for you. I've had my 6 x 10 v-nose trailer for years now and have left it as just a shell because it had to serve as my main storage solution for my motorcycles. Now that I've been able to build a garage I'm scouring KZbin for different conversion builds that will still allow me to haul a bike or two to events but add some comforts for the overnight stays at tracks or rallies. Up until now It's just been an air mattress on the floor of an uninsulated metal box with limited ventilation. Your Spartan design as you call would give me just enough amenities to be comfortable but still have that utilities space when I need it.
