XJ Jeep Cherokee Trailer Build

- Video compilation of pictures & clips taken while building the XJ Jeep Cherokee Trailer. Took about 1 year of free time. Still working on details and accessories - just like a real modded Jeep. I am not a mechanic or bodywork/fabrication professional - nor do I claim to be even close. Just learned a few things from my father while patching together my crap cars & taught myself the rest.
At first I thought it was stupid using the doors like that but then I see what you ended up doing and I love it!! Good job! Looks sick!!
+Aaron DuBois I was thinking the same thing, but dang it turned out sweet.
When I saw the thumbnail I thought this was gonna be dumb but after watching I realized that this is the coolest trailer I've ever seen.
Holy hell! The way this vid started, I was thinking "this is going to be crap." Then I kept watching and it got better and better. This is incredible!
Nothing like bringing a video back from the dead :), but i remember seeing this on NAXJA. I’m finally getting around to doing something similar but for sleeping.
I still use it, never stops getting attention where ever I go.
I was a little skeptical at first, but at the end...I must say, I'm very impressed!! Good job man!! I can tell a lot of blood, sweat, and tears went into that rig. Sweet XJ too! I'm wanting to build an XJ just like it.
Thanks, just like my jeep, it's still not all the way complete.
Didn't keep track of cost, lots of trades.

I've been eyeing vehicles for years to do something like this...NICE JOB...You gave me incentive, and ideas!
Hook up a generator/ alternator to the drive output on that axle and charge a deep cycle setup for inverters.
Awesome build!! Turned out great!
Very nice! Love how you made it look like it was an option from Jeep.
Very innovative. My favorite part is the "Trailer Rated" and "XJ Trailer" badges.
your fabricating skills are truly amazing
I must admit....BADASS-awesome concept
That's really cool. Nice idea and work!
Wow great job well played and on a budget. Top build.
Simply put, BADASS!!!
AWESOME JOB!
dude that is the coolest homemade trailer I've ever seen great work

I know it's not a rocket ship, but that took some pretty good vision, good old fashion talent, and a lot of clock. That's a great accessory, and there are still so many more possibilities for tweaking. *Good job!*
That’s badass! Very well done
Dude that's pretty cool!! Great Job!!
That looks so cool! Great work!
That is really a cool build I love the stickers for that extra detail. I have always wanted to build a trailer out of a truck bed but I could never decide what to do about the front. I like your idea with the doors.
MAN! I've been wanting to build one of those for YEARS! Well, more for hauling than hanging out in. Also want to build one from a J20. One of these days...
Really cool to see that, nice work!
OUTSTANDING !!! Much Respect brother !!!!! 2/8/18 SPOKANE WA !!!!
Definitely one of a kind. Nice job!
I thought it was going to look awful, but it turned out sweet! Very nice work!
Great Build!
Killer project! I'll have to make one sometime!
Nice choice of music, too - After Dark...
Oh man, now that is some awesome work. hell yeah! u gotta luv it...
Wow great job!
nice!! I've wanted to get a Ranger pickup bed for a trailer and this gave me some great ideas!!
great work
Haha that's cool, your trailer even has power windows. Great job man 👍🏿
that is really neat. Looks cool. I might have to try this idea.
nice work. I might have done a few things differently, but i like it. :) Thanks for sharing
Nice build !
VERY VERY NICE!!! Would love to see footage of it offroading behind you. While building something like this is challenging and it easily keeps you on task, its the final walk-a-round that brings out the feelings of accomplishment and pride in a job well done. Theres nothing like standing back and seeing the culmination of your ideas brought to life with your skills
Very cool build.
Sweet project
Hope to see it on the road someday. Great use of broken parts and nice work.
Tim Roach , I'll have the Jeep & Trailer at Slamology audio event in Indianapolis Indiana, June 10-11th 2017
Very nice build buddy
Nice! Thanks for the video. Awesomeness!
Oooooohhhh, this is giving me ideas. Much nicer than my M-416 trailer.
Awesome... There's a lot of work going into that. No doubt it's worth it 👊👊
Dam sweet rig pard!! we have 4 Cherokee jeeps and you just gave my brother and myself one hell of an idea! ty man! and nice choice on the tune to tito N tarantula kick ass!! lol
Outstanding.
Very nice build, you can hook up an alternator to the differential and charge an auxiliary battery while going down the road
probably the best homemade vehicle specific trailer I've ever seen. great fab skills. and to the Dildos who gave you a thumbs down, well they just plain be JEALOUS!
No jealousy. Shit music.
Love it,kids must love it too.
coolest trailer I have seen great build video great inspiration . thank you
That came out awesome, must turn a lot of heads going down the road.
good job I was thinking about doing something like this based on my shogun sport .well done
Yeah. That is damn nice. Thanks for sharing the idea too.
I love the trailer!
I want to do something very similar with my front-end wrecked Volvo 240 wagon. Thank you for some more inspiration on my future build! I will be swapping all of my performance things to a sedan and plan on making the wagon into a trailer just like this.
that would be sick
very well done
That's amazing!
I like how you filled in the back windows of the jeep you are towing it with too!
The towing XJ is a 96 with many modifications. Check out my other videos for more on the Cherokee.
Well done.
Hey thanks, for posting your hard work on the net. I enjoyed watching the stages and transformation of your project. I started my own version of a XJ camp trailer. I have been working on mine for about 6 months I am doing a few things a little diff. but the concept is very similar. I am impressed with your work. I have a lot of body and paint experience (schooling and several restorations but did not work in the field) I am so glad I ran across this as I am in a phase where some of your photos make it clear of what I will need to do next. One thing I would do for off road proposes is fab your tongue to except a Max Coupler Hitch. as short as you have your you will be able to take your on some pretty gnarly trails. Great Job!
THAT WAS AWESOME!!!!
sweet job
That was bad ass!! All the hater's must not own a Jeep or ever been in one!!!!!!!!, Long live jeep & prosper!!!!
it would be funny to have a Dash cam in the front truck, sending video to the screen in the trailer

Nice job
Very cool!
nice work man
Good job!
like it a lot. great job.
I'm impressed
Really entertaining video
I made few of them long time ago and one finish yesterday.
Awesome. I always wanted to do that with an s 10 pickup. But I like yours better.
Very cool
Man this is an Older Video BUT DAMN MAN,, Good JOB.. NICE IDEA!!
great idea!! great performance świetny pomysł!! świetne wykonanie
Wow man love it cool BadAss Trailer
That's dusk till dawn!
Awesome bud!! I was thinking exactly that : you should be running a generator of some sort off the trailer axle. A reverse PTO of sorts, really awesome build my friend. Kudos!
Great Job Bro Hot Boxing Heaven
Pretty cool idea. Thinking maybe I would have left the whole passenger compartment intact to save a lot of time. And it would already be sealed from the weather, have a stereo built in, etc.
robert persall The rear doors are a huge pain in the ass to climb thru too.
robert persall , it's ok with the Limited in & out it actually gets by adults. Mainly my kids.
It's really just something to entertain them when you're camping, right?
It's mainly for when out at shows, only s few camping trips.
Agreed - A great concept. I have a second XJ Cherokee as a donor for parts which would be perfect for this conversion but I'd want to keep the main cab intact too, just get rid of the engine/gearbox etc and all that weight within the bulkhead/dash and front suspension. Rather than have a bug-out sleep tent mounted on a roof-rack, the trailer idea as a towed camper would work better for me. Would have to address the weight distribution issue though. Early days.
very cool !
nice build!
Nice work! Just and idea, since yoke will be spinning run a shift to an alternator and use a charger for a battery bank
freaking awesome
Cool build!
Got your own little, mobile Mancave.
Hahaha Sick!
Excellent idea, and excellent use of original components.
Idea for next time: Chop it off at the bottom of the windshield/firewall.
DirtySouthTV , too nose heavy with the wheel base that far back.
nice job man.
very nice
good job 😉
Sounds like the music with Selma Hyak daincing with snake
Not a bad little trailer there,
good job !!!
Odusevljen sam,sjajno odradjeno..
Now you just need to run the axle all the way back to the trailer, and have some 6x6 action, lol! :D
Very cool grest job
nice job start making them. people would by them I know I would
using doors to make the front end turned out to be a pretty good idea , i have been looking intoo trailers using the back half of a stationwagon but i was considering using a rear tailgate for the front , this might be a better idea spacewize and its a little more aerodynamic
Put a hitch receiver on the back of your XJ trailer, and you can pull a small boat or 4 wheeler on a second trailer. ( I would just add electric brakes for safety. :-)
feellnfroggy rear hitch for the platform to sit on the back or spare tire mount to reciever
Not legal for anything smaller than a tractor-trailer to tow double in most states. Especially considering the pulling vehicle is a Jeep
awesome!
