Front Receiver
I wanted to solve a couple of problems with the stock attachment of the Bantam Civilians:
- Short tongue makes the trailer hard to back up - especially in the RV that this one will often get towed behind.
- Short tongue also makes it hard to haul long stuff like 12’ boats or 18’ lumber - the trailer is too close to the tow vehicle.
- Traditional ball socket is nice for on-road, but I wanted the flexibility of going to the pintle/lunette arrangement for off-road.
- The trailer will get stored outside and I’m concerned about theft.

Tailgate Pins
Closeup pictures of how the tailgate latches.
Not sure if this is original or not, but these cigar shaped pins are bolted to the tub sides, then protrude through the tailgate edges.
