Custom Toy Hauler for 7K Cargo

I have heard that the way to go is something more like a horse trailer with living quarters.

I hope you have one hell of a truck to pull all of this; your trailer will weigh 12-15k empty and you'll be 30k+ going down the road. That said, I'm envious; I'd love to take my 4x4 and a motorcycle at the same time.

2018 Ram 3500 CC long bed dually 4x4 Longhorn Southfork.
Cummins 6.7, Aisin trans & 3.73 gears right now. Rated to tow 24K and when I regear to 4.10 it is then rated for 31K. So just a SWAG but I am figuring the trail will be 21-22K fully loaded. Which was my reason for buying this truck.

My Jeep



My Harley

Perhaps if you traded the Jeep for a lighter weight RZR or CanAm or such you might have better luck finding a TH.

Ya, but the Jeep is street legal everywhere and not so for the RZR.

Look at SunDowner. They build custom all aluminum frame trailers and have a pretty good reputation in the horse hauler world.

I have a 2014 Artic Cat Wildcat. The issue with many SXS's are two fold.

1)Not street legal in some areas so you can't drive to the trail or can't drive from where one trail ends to the start of the next trail.


2)Being a amputee the cockpit of all the SXS's I have sat in are not condusive to my below knee amputation. I would need to move the throttle to the left side and then there still isn't room to sit in the SXS comfortably.


3)The amount of money I have invested into my Jeep I would never get back. Plus my daughter would KILL me if I even mentioned selling that Jeep. I bought it when she was 6mo old and she grew up Jeepin in it.


So no a SXS isn't the answer for me. As I said Dune Sport can build me the trailer I am looking for that can handle the weight I want. And they offer the ADA bathroom which is a HUGE deal when I don't have my prosthetic on.

Exactly. Plus I guess he doesn't understand "THE JEEP THING"
If I have to explain it to you, you wouldn't understand. That Jeep was my theraphy project after I was wounded in Iraq in 2004. I used my combat pay to make it what it is today.

How many are sleeping in the trailer? Is a truck camper an option? Have you thought about a truck camper (or even a shorter camp trailer body) mounted on the front of a gooseneck flatbed?

I hauled my jeep in an enclosed trailer a few times and it worked but if I ever trailer a jeep again it will be on an open trailer with a metal floor.

The width of the jeep forced me to climb out the back after it was loaded. Had to have a trailer with extra roof height. And cleaning the trailer floor after a weekend in the dirt was a pain. Tying down the jeep for travel was also a challenge do to the fact that the jeep was up against the sides of the trailer.

As much as I would hate to see that beautiful Harley on an open trailer I would look at a TC and open trailer, a TC on a gooseneck with the jeep and Harley loaded behind, or a TC with a platform for the Harley and flat tow the jeep.

Right now there is only 1 person sleeping in the trailer.

I've thought about a camper and was really thinking about it but the bathroom on most RV's unless it is a LARGE high end RV are too small. I need a shower that I can install a bench into for sitting and a stool to put my stump on.

Like I said Dune Sport will build the trailer I am just curious if there was any other manufactures that could do this? Or if anyone had any experiance with Dune Sport.

I use to have a RedNeck Toy Hauler.
