I started watching your build about 1.5 years ago. You were a big inspiration and teacher for me. I wanted to say a big thanks ! I just finished my off-road trailer and it came out better than I thought with help from you.
Been wanting to build an overland trailer for a while now. By far, the best build video I've seen so far. Thanks for the great video and the inspiration and ideas.
Ammunition trailers are designed to carry an immense amount of weight for their size. Ammunition is mainly copper and lead, heavy stuff, you could probably remove half the leaves from that leaf spring pack so you don't beat your camper (which is basically a hollow wooden box) to death, it's much lighter than ammo. Also in that first bit I was cringing... when you were man handling that cargo box off the trailer frame I was having visions of it tipping onto that gorgeous ducati
Did my laminating composite sheeting today on my squaredrop , just want to say Darrell a big thankyou for your tips and videos helped me out lots, that bostic 2701 some amazing stuff Take care Adam
seeing that screw in the tyre at 12:12 I totally felt a real connection with you as the builder as that's my kinda luck too get a bloody screw in a brand new tyre before even taking outta the workshop lol, awesome build thanks for sharing.
Love your work mate. These videos have been invaluable in conceptualising my off road teardrop. I'm 3 weeks in and going back to watch this agsin for some more inspo. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and wisdom mate!
Brother Awesome Build! Partial shading on Solar Panel not good! Independent suspension is a must! And why didn't you go with double doors for the Lady? Wait when she goes to the bathroom 3 times a night! LOL! Best Regards!
Darryl, what a build! This one has nothing to envy with one of those 30-40k campers that I am constantly dreaming off... I subscribed!. Hoping to start my build shortly. Thank You Sir!
Great video! Thanks! Gives me a lot of inspiration. My study is ready, now time to build my road camper. In Holland these campers a very rear. Last 5 years i saw two of them. Greetings from the Netherlands!! Peter
Looks great. My concern though is about the drill holes in the frame. I like the shocks/struts. But, putting holes in metal that's used for structural support is typically a bad idea as a pre-existing flaw decreases a metal's yield strength, and plastic deformation is more likely to occur. Manufacturer's typically perform an analysis to determine where holes, hole sizes are safe to make. Did you know if this was safe? Or were you making a guess? I don't doubt that maybe you have not had any issues with your build. I'd just be hesitant to do something like that and would be more inclined to attach some sort of bracket to the frame instead.
You haven't looked at the shock absorber install video. In that I explain and show the photo of where the chassis manufacturer added shocks to the same spot in the same fashion. If this was ok for the Australian Army to use, its ok for me. ua-cam.com/video/h_UZ-yoRvfU/v-deo.html
Great job on the camper and great video. Could you double your solar panels by having one set on top of the other and on a sliding rack that you can pull out to expose the lower panels once you stop to setup camp? Just an idea.
I've bought a 300w solar blanket and put a double Anderson plug input on the camper - so 'could' add another 600w. When travelling the vehicle charges the camper mainly.
Great build mate. So good to see even the scribble on the side is in metric. None of that, "ninety twelve sixty forth's" horse shit our septic tank brethren of "red white and blue" use on the other side of the pond. Hahahah 😆 Really sweet build. Thank you for sharing your content. Safe travels mate and keep the shiny side up.
Just started watching some of these for an idea of a project I wanted to do and i think yours looks the most interesting to me but got to check out the others it seems for more of an idea this was first one i found but dang wondering about how much it cost to do some of that but definitely looks great
Woooow!!!! You have a new subscriber and of course my like. How can I have some plans with the measurements and link of materials? Thank you very much for the contribution and greetings!!!
Thank you very much sharing your DIY Off Road Camper // Full Build Video👍
I’ve never seen anyone work so fast. Must be the Ozzy sunshine ☀️. Very impressed with your vast array of skills.
Thank you very much!
One of the cleanest builds i have ever seen, if not the cleanest.
Thank you so much for that.
The amazing thing is that this mate does the entire build on his own. Very nice workmanship too.
Thank you Tony
BROTHER ! YOU DID A FANTASTIC JOB ! TIME FOR FUN !
You got that right!
OMG super professional build - highly skilled craftsman
Your channel was EXACLY what I needed!!! I am purchasing a pre-built trailer, but needed to know how to build all the extra things! Thanks!!
Самый лучший ролик, что я видел. Руки золотые, молодец, просто отличный кемпер получился!!!
Thank you
I admire your planning, mechanical, construction, electrical, automotive,and other skill sets. Job well done!
Thank you 🙏
Absolutely the most professional job I have ever seen..
Thanks so much
I love it. Mfrs are scrambling to learn what DIY builders are doing and trying to imitate it. Of course, DIY is less expensive.
Thanks Tina

Glad to have helped Diego
I like the way the extra storage tube is added underneath!
Thanks, it works well.
This is the greatest overland camper I have ever seen, I want one!
Great to hear you like it
I was just browsing the UA-cam, and stumbled across this build. Was thoroughly pleased. Good job
thank you!

Great end result and no doubt you saved some cash, had fun building it, and know every system in the rig , impressive sir….. 👍

Nice to see an ex army trailer be useful for something other than "battle PT". Edit: And yes, they were very hard to reverse with that short drawbar.
Great little camper. Exactly what i would want.
GREAT JOB MATE 👏 TALENTED MAN PAT ON THE BACK 🤟 GREAT TIM LAPSE AN GREAT MUSIC
Thanks Martin
Awesome job, I wish I had your skills to convert my camper trailer into something like that. Well done.
Thanks! 👍

If that Jerry can mount could rotate down to level it could double for a grill table or something.
