Without pictures I don't believe a word of it.

Looks like the image cache got corrupt on the server. I reset it, it should be OK now.dingdong wrote:Without pictures I don't believe a word of it.

Re: trailer build
Nice little trailer, based on a HF tag-a-long I assume? Should serve you very well 

Ride safe, Todd

Re: trailer build
Looks good.
Make sure you get the wheels balanced either statically, dynamically or you can throw in about three ounces of balance beads in each tire instead.
I pulled one of those little trailers 2800 miles behind my car several years ago and didn't balance the wheels. It shook the car top carrier I had on it about half to death.

Re: trailer build
Ya know, I've been thinking of doing the exact same thing to my HF trailer and removing the ugly green Zombie Response Team cargo pod. Except I was thinking of making it 24" high. Completely using up 1 4x8 sheet of 1/2" PT plywood.steve84 wrote:just about to get through with build. this was a lot fun of building this trailer.it is 40 inches wide an 48 long ,16 high.weighs in under 200 pounds.todays job is to lengthen the toungue to 84 inches.017.JPG
