Suburban Trailer???

[SrMousse]

I have a doner suburban that I am slowly stripping for use/storage/sale. Figured I'd get it stripped enough that I'd send what little was left to the scrapper. Then I saw a local lawn company drive by with a truck bed trailer. That got me thinking.... I have not found ANY examples of anyone building a suburban rear into a trailer. I did find this though, which got me thinking even more:

So, I spun up photoshop, gave my truck a paint job, then "built" a Burb-Trailer... So I ask yall, is this just stupid???

I say if you have the skills to make it happen, go for it! It will definitely be unique.

I like it, can work for hauling stuff and a home away from home. Lets see a bear claw into that unit.

Do it! Honestly, it would be pretty cool to camp out in that.

In your rendition, it looks like the Burb and trailer are flying so if you can make that happen, I say go for it.

Graft a windshield frame into the front. That would give you better visibility, and match the angle of the burb.

If solid Burb bodies were in abundance here ( they are not, lol) I would build a trailer using two of them. Basically it would be just like your rendition, but the front wall would be the very rear of a tailgate Burb, then at the rear would be barn doors.

I say go for it! That would make an awesome camper.

I had 2 suburbans back years ago and wanted to make one into a trailer to pull behind the other one.

They have so much room you could sleep in it and make it into a camper trailer which is what I wanted to do.

I vote you go for it, if you have the means to make it. It would be unique and functional all at the same time.

Do it!

I would say yes but do it right. the most common mistakes with homebuilt trailers are,

1. to short of a tongue.

2. using the rear axle for a trailer axle.

And it flies! ET and Dorothy would dig it.
