    you could use a trashed gas grill regulator and make a cap - it has the right threads already

    Rotate the propane tank so the threads are facing the trailer. The collar will protect the tank.

    This thing looks awesome. At first I wasn’t to sure about the lowes trailer becoming an overland trailer but I’m now sold on the build. Great job. I wish I can copy you and make myself one however, without any welding experience, I think I will have to skip on that. Lol.

    • @ATEMOFFROAD
      @ATEMOFFROAD  2 года назад +1

      As far as welding goes, it can be a little intimidating, but there are classes you can take that are inexpensive at local junior colleges to learn. I think anyone can do it, the first step is getting a welder and practicing. And alot of the little stuff is practice! I always say you can outsource alot of the real important structural stuff to a local fabricator who is comfortable. That way you are comfortable about your build too! I feel like welding is like riding a bike and when you start learning you have it down, and then you begin to learn how to do tricks over time! Well something like 🤣🤣 I hope that I can inspire one person to take in the challenge and learn something new. It’s a great life experience IMO even if you don’t pursue it. I’ve always thought that if he could do it I can too. Thank you for watching I appreciate it! 🍻

    • @ATEMOFFROAD
      @ATEMOFFROAD  2 года назад +2

      I saved a lot by already having the trailer , that minimized the cost of buying steel and using the trailer as a foundation to build up. Steel costs have been bogus lately, and I’m not made of money. I figure it’s not a super crazy build , very simple and light weight, still obey the manufacturers handling suggestions etc. Overall dollar cost average, and that’s everything $2700. And I could have gotten away with a lot of things I really didn’t need to do! For instance the max coupler , the fenders and tongue box, Rotopax, axle upgrade! Things like this i choose to do this! I’m sure you could definitely cut that 2700 down even more based on your personal configuration and needs.

      With your logic it makes you wonder why they even make camping trailers, Coaches, and RVs to begin with. We particularly like offgrid, offroad 4x4 dispersed camping and with a family of 4 + 2 dogs, we use two tents, one on top of the jeep for kids, and my wife and I use the trailer or vise versa. Not much room in a jeep to sleep 4. 🤷‍♂️
