The tailights are aftermarket 37 ford led lights. Yes, I welded them into the stake pockets. I made the entire box, including the stake pockets from scratch. The trailer is just a cargo trailer, not a camper. I use it to haul my tools to work so I get to use my truck most days in summer!

nice job on the metalworking and box build. I like the flat topped sides compared to the angled ones, thats just me though.
