Please keep me informed of the progress…

I will, the day job keeps getting in the way but I hope to have a working prototype in the autumn.

That’s cool! A lot bigger than my design. I’m going for something much smaller / simpler. And hopefully much cheaper. I want it to be buildable by someone with basic tools and limited experience .

Hi Christian,

I already saw your post. And I know Moser, too… You have quite a nice one designed…
Maybe we can meet some time, since we are both from the south west. I was born in FR.

I am state side, I have a CONQUERER UEV 490 - I had to do some mods to it, but I absolutely love it. Fits my needs perfectly with my 2 dogs. Hoping that it tows well behind the Gren.

Hi Tom

How are you doning on this project?

Shoogs · Dec 18, 2023

I have been towing this around Oz for the past 18 years, never failed, nothing broke, was never stopped, and that was towing it on the Canning Stock Route and everything in-between, I will probably update electrics next year but have never made any major changes or repairs except good consistent maintenance, and it goes where my Defender or now Grenadier will go, the latest ones are around 150KAUD but same design. But as other have said there are 1000's to choose from.

I run one of these behind my Grenadier - Light weight, aerodynamic, go anywhere suspension and quick to set up.

I have done a bit more design but I still haven’t started construction. My day job is like being in the godfather, every time I try and get out they pull me back in. I still want to be testing a prototype in Morocco in 2024… preferably the spring.

KK’s are good bits of gear, if not on the expensive side. You really need to get the value for money equation.

I have an off-road trailer. Model "low-budget"

But still: LR hubs and wheels, leaf springs, removable lights, sliding pieces in rear corners.
This has done logging work for several hundreds of cubic meters of wood.

Agree, though I can't complain, bought for 55k 18 years ago, still insured for same... cheap ain't good and good ain't cheap...
