NEVER PULL A BOX TRAILER WITHOUT A SWAY BAR.... i just rolled my truck and trailer due to a high wind gust compounded by black ice. Almost lost my wife and kids. I've been towing my tool box around for years. I know not to panic brake but it doesn't take much before its just beyond control. Never thought i needed a sway bar for a little 7x14 TA. I didn't have one. I'll never do that again. This advise may just save your life. PS. Nice trailer. I'd like to show you my new one when i get her done. Everyone was jealous of my old one.
You are right, Bob! We did a lot of research about safe towing. So, we had a Pro Series sway control bar installed before our 1st trip (Alaska). We are glad we did this, it saved us in many circumstances. We will be glad to hear about your build!
@@ThePhool1 Oh, come off it! I tow extensively with my One-ton pickup and his setup is just fine for his application. You need to take a good look around at how things are done in Canada, and the whole rest of the world, to understand that you do NOT need all of that crap just to tow a tiny, light, single axle trailer. You're not impressing anyone with your pseudo-Macho arrogance and holier-than-thou overkill. I suspect that the only thing you ever carry in the back of your "truck" is a couple of aluminum beer cans and the only "off-road" use it gets is a gravel driveway. "Children should be seen and not heard." There's some good advice for 'ya, Junior.
Very simple build happy travels. Looks like everything you need 😊 subscribed to you're channel so we'll see where you go. The most important part is wherever you go leave only foot prints. I like to always leave a campground or wherever nicer then how I found it. Whether that means picking up someone's trash or anything I can do to make it nice for the next person. If everyone did that wouldn't the world be a nicer place. Have fun you deserve it for all the hard work !!!
@@TheNomadStudio please in the name of God can you tell me how much was the total cost of converting these things until you're finished product I am extremely curious interested on how much it cost totally I would like to know immediately so I can do this myself along with my more than capable Buddy's of installations
Nice build, love the yellow touches! Great that you put in a shower. You have all the comforts here in a small footprint, well done! Too bad we never got to see the toilet area. Also, some windows would have been nice! Please avoid music. Kind of ruins the tour. A voice over would have been nice.
Probably the best cargo trailer/camper conversion vid I've seen thus far. Nicely detailed while remaining concise. Sweet music, too. Thanks so much for this, dude. Hella inspiring. Can't wait to get my project started.
Hello Sarah! An empty 6*12 cargo trailer weighs about 1200 lbs. Our converted trailer's dry weight is around 2500 lbs and once fully loaded it weighs anywhere between 2800-3000 lbs. I would suggest you to look at tear drop trailers which usually weighs under 1000 lbs
Wow.... when I saw the Murano pulling this trailer, I was hoping you had kept it well below 2000 lbs... Are you at all concerned about hauling almost double the max (U.S.) tow rating of the Murano? Did you ever talk to your insurance about it and if they'd still cover you should the worse ever happen? Just curious what kind of liability you might have if something ever does happen...
The kitchen sink outlet drains into a 5 gal portable can. For shower, it drains directly down to the ground, where we use a portable 16qt oil catch pan to collect it. Oil catch pan used for automobile is much cheaper than a regular portable RV grey water tank.
Nice work. I have been looking at small micro trailers I can pull with my VW TDI diesel sportwagen without hurting MPG. I also want the option to still haul stuff like a motorbike and then camp out in the trailer. I am going to make one. The factory stuff seems pretty poor quality. I can put the best systems in and customize it to my mission for little money.
"...without hurting MPG." You, of all people, should know a thing or two about Physics. How does wind resistance increase as a function of frontal area? What about weight and the coefficient of friction? Simply put, it all takes WORK to move this extra mass down the road. There is no such thing as a "Free" Ride. You will be sorely disappointed by the hit your TDI will take in fuel economy.
Amazing! Are you an electrician/engineer by trade or are you self-taught? How did you know how to do all this?😃 And what a trip you had,that video is amazing too!
At the beginning it says you installed a shower partition wall but it shows the shower in front of the wall. Is the toilet behind it? I think the shower and toilet would have looked better both behind it. I'm guessing there is a reason you did it this Way?
Behind the partition wall, it is only the trailer's V-Nose area. Since it is an acute space, we built 3 storage shelves to use it as our wardrobe area. We just place the porta-potty inside the 2*3 ft RV shower tub.
You did two inches of insulation all around? That's r12 with the polyiso, did you do the floors too? How do you feel about that, has it been enough? I plan on doing the same but with 3" for the ceiling. Great looking build, I am very curious about how the indoor air quality is in there though, a lot of products that offgas were used.
Thank you! On our Alaska trip,the loaded weight was around 3000 lbs - which included 1 month food/clothes, fully filled 26 gallon tank and addition 15 gallon fresh water.
I was confused by this comment and had to go repeat the video to see what Kristine was talking about. It's not often that you see such obvious racism apparent in these types of videos. You should perhaps think about what you said Kristine. It was a horrible comment.
I'm having trouble converting into a travel trailer dmv says it's illegal some law passed 4 years ago anyone have any idea? And I need it converted on paper because rv parks won't let me in
That is interesting, I have never heard of this before. Would like to know if anyone else has faced this problem. We mostly boondock, but we have never faced any issues whenever we stayed at a RV park.
Looks nice clean build. Wow $10k !! Trailers run about $3k new for a ‘6 x 12’ with brakes and $2k -$3k on a decent interior build includes solar goodies. For $10k you could have bought a very nice smaller factory built with more amenities. Pulling with that car is not wise for the weight. Bigger SUV , van or 1/2 ton truck would be safer. People make that mistake pretty often because Nissan tells you you can. Good for their parts and repair business.
If this is not enough space for you, you have too much stuff. Show God how much you love Him back, and spend every ounce of energy you can loving on PEOPLE like Yeshua said. When asked a decent question, he gave a straight answer. Which is the greatest of the commandments? If you already know the answer he gave from learning in Sunday school, good, remind yourself of the answer. If you don't know anything about this passage or where to find it, it's not like me to just post the answer, there's a lot to it -what commandments? Who's Yeshua? And stuff like that. #hisnameiYehoVAH
Right Anita: If you have too much stuff you probably have an idol worship problem, agree. Get rid of stuff and find what really matters in the eternal perspective, you can't take stuff with you, only your soul, where do you want it, with God, or without? Love gives a choice. Its almost midnight!!!
The nice part of being an American is you get to believe or not believe in any thing you wish. Whether you choose to believe in any religion or any other fairy tales still doesn't have any thing to do with camping.
you can't take stuff with you, only your soul So what you are saying is you can take your soul with you to Heaven? Ya twit. Only your soul will make the trip to heaven. As a Christian I do not see any use for your comments here on a trailer conversion for camping and traveling. Some people just don't know when to keep their mouths and minds where it is not needed and probably wanted. This is why some people hate religion and radical zealots like you 2.
Marc Clarke, with all the work that was done, that's what you come away with? Smh. Btw, Video: the recording, reproducing, or broadcasting of moving visual images. Feel better?
This "slide show" was not about a slide show. It was about the content and the achievement of the people who built it. Your judgement is irrelevant to the content of the video.
Looks 👍 great. I think I would add an ac unit and a small generator to run it. Great job.
Best one so far!
Thank you! @petricedobson
AWESOME! And well done! Thanks for sharing.
Cozy and stylish little mobile getaway. I like it.
Like the open feeling inside! Not too much not needed stuff!
This is exactly what I have in mind but with the bed higher to create more storage room for our bikes. Thanks! I will use this video as a basis for what I want to do!
Glad it was helpful! Good luck with your build!
Great Job why anyone would thumb down this is beyond me?! You did a great Job Looks Good!!
Thank you for the encouragement, David. It means a lot!
David lee because of the fecking what music
Great work mate. Tell you what, you definitely are handy with the tools. I reckon you'd do well here. G'day from Australia.

one of the better cargo trailer conversions I've seen. Great job.
Wow!! Love the setup and floor plan.
Thanks so much!
Well done, safe travels!
very smart build. I'm glad you shared it
Looks comfy niceeee
Very nice. I special ordered my trailer with electric brakes.
great use of space
Great work.
Thanks!
Very nice Build I like it Thanks for the upload
Hello fellow Ohioians....Super cool home. everything down to the solar panels well thought out. Enjoy your travels.
Thank you, Laurie! :)
Awesome build, happy trails ::))) Hope to see you on the road someday...........
Wow, you made excellent use of the space. It looks great!

Sway bar for the trailer?
You don't need one if you have a decent vehicle towing it, but smaller SUVs and cars yes it helps tons. All 1 ton trucks you are completely fine.

Sweet built. Good work man! 👍🏽
Nice job
Way to go!
Thank you, Joel!
That's awesome..ty
Great job! I know this is an older video but I was wondering about the cost of the build including the trailer. Thank you.

Very nice
I love it,love it,love it but 3:52 ........D........:)..........NICE! Congratulation!
I looked at a 6x12 today for a camper build. It seemed a bit too small for what I want to do. I'm gonna have to go to a 7x14. But nice job...
thanks!!
Very cool. I’m looking to do this as well. Thank you ☮️🤚🏼👊🏼😃❤️
Nice! Curious about the weight? I'm thinking about doing something similar but possibly smaller since my Element can only tow 1500 lbs.
Hello Sarah! An empty 6*12 cargo trailer weighs about 1200 lbs. Our converted trailer's dry weight is around 2500 lbs and once fully loaded it weighs anywhere between 2800-3000 lbs. I would suggest you to look at tear drop trailers which usually weighs under 1000 lbs

Did you ever talk to your insurance about it and if they'd still cover you should the worse ever happen? Just curious what kind of liability you might have if something ever does happen...
Max tow capacity for a stock Murano is 3500lbs provided its a class II hitch.
Very nice job. Thanks!
Great job! Any issues taking that into an RV park or campground?
Thank you! We usually boondock, but we have also stayed in campgrounds and never had any issues.
Nice!
Awesome
What type of car are you using to tow your tiny home? Great job!
Thank you! We tow our trailer with a 2nd gen Nissan Murano
So how does the plumbing (grey water) work? Where does it exit/ drain
The kitchen sink outlet drains into a 5 gal portable can. For shower, it drains directly down to the ground, where we use a portable 16qt oil catch pan to collect it. Oil catch pan used for automobile is much cheaper than a regular portable RV grey water tank.

Amazing! Are you an electrician/engineer by trade or are you self-taught? How did you know how to do all this?😃 And what a trip you had,that video is amazing too!
Thank you! Self taught with lots of research and fails before getting it right.
At the beginning it says you installed a shower partition wall but it shows the shower in front of the wall. Is the toilet behind it? I think the shower and toilet would have looked better both behind it. I'm guessing there is a reason you did it this Way?

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Very nice!
You did two inches of insulation all around? That's r12 with the polyiso, did you do the floors too? How do you feel about that, has it been enough? I plan on doing the same but with 3" for the ceiling. Great looking build, I am very curious about how the indoor air quality is in there though, a lot of products that offgas were used.
Awesome work. Do you know how much its weight once all loaded?
Thank you! On our Alaska trip,the loaded weight was around 3000 lbs - which included 1 month food/clothes, fully filled 26 gallon tank and addition 15 gallon fresh water.
How much did you pay for the trailer? And the remodel to make the conversion? Looks awesome!
Nice job! Have you weighed it yet to see how much you're actually towing?
The solar battery meter you got there. Where did you get it?
Living Free Adventures all that you can buy on Amazon. EPsolar or Solar epic MPPT and an my 50 meter that plugs into it.
The music: why?
I love the mute button.
I like the music it's cool and it goes with the video
Because there is a hundred clips of individual video's that would drive people crazy. Just mute it and stop bitching.
@@OFFICIAL_VIDEO_AWARDS better then that just don't watch them
It would be a pretty boring vid without some music. Just saying.
very nicely done, may I ask what one of these sell for. I am very interested
Hello Tony! not sure what it would sell for, but we spent about 10k (new trailer + build) in total.
How much did the finished product come up to
About $8000, including the cost of the cargo trailer
@@TheNomadStudio oh that's good
I thought Murano can tow max 1500 lbs. I wouldn't pull anything over 1000 lbs. Awesome job on trailer btw.
Ours is a second gen Murano and it is rated to tow 3500 lbs. Our trailer weighs much lower than the tow rating.
Inefficient electrical system
Where did you get your shower pan? I need one for the cargo trailer I'm converting.
Amazon
3:17 legit I thought at first glance he put a stone window in lol
Same question I have? Why the music?
its not a circuit board.. its a 120v electrical panel..
I really wish you would’ve narrated this instead of the music I really would like to hear your insight on building this
Hows the Nissan holding up?
Our Murano is handling well, surprisingly. Good thing we added trailer brakes. It helped on numerous situations (even on a downhill 10% grade).
Burned the transmission after 10,000 km lol
Total cost?
toilet?
What does it weigh?
Hello Gary! It weighs between 2800 to 3000 lbs fully loaded.
omg im so happy to see a person of color!! hope to see you guys on the road
