This episode, I cut open the rear section of the trailer to turn it into a swing out tailgate! This is easily my favourite mod to the trailer so far; I think it turned out great!
The tailgate provides us with so much space for a custom kitchen and drawer set up. Now it is time to think of ways to make this happen – if you have any ideas, please share them below. As always thanks for watching and ill see you guys on the next episode!

Looks good. However you will need a latch or pin to lock the tailgate open otherwise it will swing shut all the time
You should do a drop down table on the trailer door
Love the vids keep them coming
You should extend that tab a little bit and put a slight bend down in it so you dont have to lift the gate up on to it
Get a nylon roller to take the gates weight, it'll help take out the rattle and wont cause a rusty spot!
Bit disappointed mate, thought you were going to bust our the Lamborghini hinges lol. It’s looking good 👍🏼
Great content mate, keep it up 👍
Doesn’t the upper bar defeat the purpose of an opening rear? Because you still have to lift shit over it??
What a shame… you might as well just have built from scratch… why use something that you cut and change that much?
Love the build, might need drop down legs at the back if she wants to tip back🤔
Always come back for the builds if I'm being honest Ur wanna of the only 4wd channels I don't get bored of.
When do we get a civic update?
Finally a YouTube not drowning in brand name tools gifted to them. Sick of those with walls filled with $1million worth of makita, dewalt or Milwaukee tools saying "you've got use these tools if you want to tackle this kind of project" when they've not dipped their hands in their pockets once.
That was a mint job. I wanna build one now!
If you're not already thinking about adding gas struts they would make opening and closing that door so much easier! Great build mate!
Great video mate
I recon you should start uploading more
🤘🏻
I saw one of these advertised for sale on fb marketplace in Sydney recently.. relatively cheap too !
what welder and gas you using? Also the size and type of tubing ?
Absolutely loving watching this trailer get better and better, if your worried about the trailer tilting back may have to do stands like on the truck trailers, unless the weight of the draws should keep it stable
Hey you may know this but just in case you don’t, in qld if you register it as a camper trailer the tent must fold out off the left side.
Is that a 79 scoop I see leaning on the wall 👀 Trailer’s looking mint too 🔥
Ooofft she’s looking good 🔥🔥
Good ole Bunnings with the goods👌 can’t go wrong mate
Mate this thing is lookin beasty! Can't wait to see it behind the rig hauling the gears up the beach/trails on ya missions… you should rock a trailer cam on haul for a sic perspective… chur!
You should do a lock for the rear door so it doesn't move just a simple plate some holes and a pin if you know what I mean but good job mate
love the content dude! dont know why I'm seeing this a day late! but she's coming along nicely! also any chance of getting bigger shirts for us fat people??
Heck yes nice work mate enjoying this build so far!
Frigging AWESOME trailer build. Really enjoying your work.
Should have made in drop down but anyhow still looks sweet mate.
I like your videos and your channel. Just asking if you have considered the 500kg payload of the trailer and what weight you are putting in/on it?
Coming along smick bro!! 👍🏽
Good old diesel dogs growing up….
Another great video.
Wish I had your skills
