New Trailer

Recommended Posts

Bought a new Neosho Streamliner Deluxe trailer http://neoshotrailers.com/steamline-deluxe/. Not a high end trailer, but I like the included features for the price. They were very good to deal with.

 

For the wiring, I used a Hopkins 5-Wire flat Endurance plug http://www.hopkinstowingsolutions.com/products/vehicle-wiring-connectors/5-wire-flat/ wired to an Electrical Connection trailer relay isolator http://www.electricalconnection.com/wire-harnesses/hrns-trailer.htm. They offer a sub-harness for the Venture, but not the TD so I bought a harness from Steve (M61AMECH) here. An excellent product and great service. I also added a Signal Dynamics BackOFF XP brake light module.

 

The Tour Deluxe only has a 5.3 gallon gas tank and if I get 35 mpg, I'm doing good. I am sure that that will drop even further pulling a trailer. Gas stations can be few and far between in certain regions out here so I wanted to be able to carry extra gas. I wanted the gas (weight) as close to the axle and as low as possible and not in the luggage compartment. I mounted a 2 gallon RotopaX with a LOX Pack Mount purchased from http://www.rockymountainatvmc.com/p/738/27861/RotopaX-Fuel-Pack?term=rotopax underneath the trailer. I realize that it is not mounted in the most convenient spot, but its' use will be the exception and not the rule.

Sure hope you don't need that extra gas much. Don't look easy to get to. I'm glad you said something about the spare protecting it, as that would be one of my concerns. Maybe fab up a rock gaud if after a couple trips it looks like its getting pelted.

Sharp job on all the install work.
