I would, but the cost of even an old travel trailer is close to $1000 more than what it would cost me to do this. I could also remove the camper and use the trailer if needed.
Pointing out the obvious here; you're going to spend a buck to save a penny.
Projects like this will nickle and dime you, suck your free time faster than a bad headache and the end result will be practically guaranteed to disappoint.
Just reading the idea that you can throw a 'surge brake' on easily gives me an idea of where this is going. Sure one can, but the sum of the parts will trump almost anything you could find 'completed'. What's your time worth anyhow?
