Cargo Trailer Camper Conversion | Update AC & Sumo Springs
Cargo Trailer Camper Conversion | Update AC & Sumo Springs installed on the cargo trailer and truck.
Mini Split Air Conditioner - amzn.to/2xFwxCG
Sumo Springs - amzn.to/2YKEcLZ
I am very happy with the start of summer I have an A/C unit installed on my cargo trailer. I haven't been able to test it out in 100+ degree temps yet up I think it will do really well.
Another install that was worth the money was the super springs I install on my truck to help keep my truck handle the weight of the cargo trailer behind it. I wish I installed these suckers many years ago. I'll let you know in a few months if they were truly worth the $245 investment.
If you would like to watch more video's of me turning my cargo trailer into my like home/camper please view some of my other video's. Thanks for watching

Living In A Converted Cargo Trailer
Переглядів 10 тис.6 років тому
So this is my first legit vlog video. I've been living in a converted cargo trailer for well over 1 year and absolutely love it. A cargo trailer camper conversion is the best way to go if your on a tight budget and want something that's going to hold up for years. I live a Nomadic lifestyle. Which means I dont say in one area for a long time. Before this I had a full time job and lived in a apa...

    Bro, I'm living this exact life. My rig is 16x8.5 towed by a 06 ram cummins 3500. I have 1 dog although I'm about to adopt another. I stay local to my job which is a tower climber then I save up 20k and I travel for a month or 2 then come back. I couldn't be happier tbh glad to see someone else enjoying the life as well. Stay blessed my friend!

    if you use a storage tub to stand in with a shower curtain to divert water back into tub, and run your sump into the bottom, just add a water filter and you can take a shower for an hour on as little as 1/2 gallon of water. its called the "hour shower". im building one. but you may have access to plenty of creeks around there. water is such a big problem for many when trying to stay out for longer periods of time. great setup. im building my second trailer now

      @@mastiffsrme hi heidi, ive kinda put my building on hold. i kept making so many changes that i was tearing things out over and over! waste of money and time. but ill still build a shower. that hour-shower is a viable option. but i may just get a metal sprinkler pale that i can heat on a stove and then hang from the ceiling. with a built-in cabinet/tub and curtin. im trying to focus on lightweight options and as always less is more. less water pumps, less piping, less, less!

    Would love to chat about your experiences! I've been wanting to convert a 7x16 cargo but my concerns are; 1. Offroad capabilities and getting into some blm spots etc. 2. What Re the biggest downfalls of full timing it in this. Things you wish you had. 3. Towing in the city and on dirt roads, troubles you run into.

    Not being critical, just thought you might want to know - the sound/volume on this video is terrible - you need to either speak louder or have the microphone closer to you. Even though I had my volume turned up full, for most of the video it was really hard to hear what you were saying. I do like the layout you chosen.

    Heat rises, you want your heaters close to floor. It's not propane leaks that kill you, it's the carbon monoxide from burning it.

    it never ceases to amaze me that people will put videos like this up thinking that we want to see how they built their cargo trailer. The truth is, we do. Usually because we have a cargo trailer ourselves and what ideas to help us build it. What we want to do is to compare what you've done to what we want to do with our trailer and it ideas. What I'm amazed with is how few people will tell us the size of their trailer so we can compare what they've done with our available space.

    I’m considering framing walls and a roof around a 7 x 16 trailer as opposed to converting a cargo trailer. Apart from saving on the cost of building materials and reducing the likelihood of leaking (which I consider the big upsides), why did you choose a cargo trailer?

  • @MikeFindling
    @MikeFindling 4 роки тому

    Lots of pro/con arguments regarding unvented propane heaters. Most suggest a CO detector. Do you open windows, if not what is your experience if using all night? Any after effects?

    • @nomadicjake4748
      @nomadicjake4748 4 роки тому

      Using a propane heater inside a trailer is completely fine as long as you open a window and put a roof top vent fan on exhaust mode that way you have air flow. Been doing it for 3+ years and everything is fine. Most of the people commenting live in there mom's basement and act like they know everything.

      Agreed completely with your answer, I have been camping for little over 70 yrs, still alive, got 33 ft motor home too beat to move any distance, so going to use my Jeep & U Haul cargo trailer camp at King of the Hammers, temps can range from 70 to 20, gonna have to leave 1 door open if using heater.
