You've always known you could build it better, but you ran into two problems: wooden DIY kits that didn't meet your standard, and the lack of time to engineer it yourself from scratch. You just needed a kit to finally outclass those expensive online trailers.
Well, now you have it.
This is the high-quality, all-aluminum foundation you assemble—the perfect fusion of your skill and our trusted engineering. The final result? The best teardrop trailer on the road, proudly built by you.
We supply the aluminum Pod—you supply the flat-top trailer. Smyth offers two models designed to drop directly onto your frame: the 480 Pod fits any 4’ x 8’ / the 510 Pod fits any 5’ x 10’
Everything you need to complete your build is in the box. See the full kit contents below:
