8.5 x 24 Toy Hauler Cargo Trailer Conversion

It’s been awhile! Time for an update.
So the trailer has been completely wired. I installed a fantastic fan in place of the old vent. Installed a bathroom exhaust fan, rear lights above the ramp door, side awning lights and wired everything to a switch panel by the entry door. Here are some pics.
I made three under floor storage compartments. One of them is in between the axles and the other two are directly above the axles. The center one which is deeper will be for the batteries and other little things. The other two will just be for extra storage. The center one was made by welding angle iron together and 5/8 plywood. The other two were pretty easy. I already had a lip on one side so I just had to weld some angle iron to the other side to make another lip. Harbor freight welder worked great! All of the plywood and metal was sprayed to protect from rust and moisture rot.
