Modified my dad's old motorcycle trailer to carry the new sj this weekend, and I thought I'd make a thread so that if anybody else was thinking of doing it they'd have another idea to help with the brainstorming.
It's a regular one axle trailer with 3/4" plywood covering the top surface.
I got an 8' pressure treated 4x4 and two 8' pressure treated 2x4s, as well as 8 3/8" 6" long bolts and associated hardware. We cut the 4x4 into 2' sections and used the tilt feature of a circular saw to cut them at a 30 degree angle (as measured from the hull of the sj). We cut the 2x4's down to 6 feet and screwed the 4x4's to the bottom at the front and rear of the 2x4's, bolted the assemblies to the trailer, and threw some indoor/outdoor carpet over the bunks.
Here's the pattern I used for the angle and spacing on my '08 hull.
Anyway, here's a few pictures.
