Posted: 7/21/2013 2:42:20 PM EDT

So I found a trailer on CL, I am wanting to build a overland trailer, something to replace my truck camper, the trailer I found says no title. is there a way I can get it so I can license this trailer in state of iowa? if its a headache I will just find other options.

I cannot help you out on the licensing part but if you're interested in converting a military trailer to an overlanding type of trailer check out steelsoldiers.com and expeditionportal.com. Good luck!

Buy the thing, convert it and register it as homemade.

If it is over 2000 lbs you need a title To register it.. But they aren't going to come weigh it.

What kind of trailer is it? I just sold an m332 ammo trailer a couple weeks ago on craigslist.

^^^^^^^^^
This is the answer.
I have done this may times with M101 and M105 trailers.
Need any parts or need to get rid of leftovers let me know

I have been lurking on EXPO and where I got the need to build one of these. plus I would like to ditch the hard slide in camper I have I think a trailer would be better suited for myself. I found a trailer on CL but its one of those idk if its worth the money or just build my own. you guys say change it and say its a homebuilt I may end up doing it if i decide to pull the trigger on this trailer. Thanks.
I am looking at a M416
