| Re: Dinky R/C's Tandem Trailer Kit Looking great, I like the style of the deck. It also looks like it will be a nice piece to modify if you wanted... I think you guys hit a home run with the trailer and the pricing... --Dan |

| Mine is almost complete. Really cool kit and well executed. I added a Tractor Supply toolbox, and a Proline winch. If you do the tool box mod as I did, make sure and bolt in the bottom and also through the back of the tool box through the forward trailer frame rail. The top plate that I cut gives the tongue it's strength and must be compensated for after cutting. Trailer is loads lighter than a metal trailer I recently did some work on for Crawler InNovations and I don't believe it was this large. I went with the stamped steel bead lock wheels due to the force that is put on the tires during tight turns and especially when it is loaded. Used the 1.55 Desert King tires from RC4wd as I wanted a small trailer style tire. Will be adding a few more special CFM touches and some of the Dinky Trailer accessories as they become available. Now I just need a hitch for my sons rig to pull this bad boy. |

| Installed the Dinky Hitch today on my sons rig to get the trailer moving. Still have lighting and few more tricks up my sleeve to make this trailer really stand out. I'm having as much fun building on it as I'm the scalers, and my wife just rolls her eyes as I'm discussing how my son and I will drive it out and I'll unload the buggy and go crawling.   |

| Re: Dinky R/C's Tandem Trailer Kit I saw what CarterFab did to his, but is there other way to widen the deck of trailer to fit a SC truck or buggy? |

Trying to provide an inexpensive basic platform to build from, so making changes to it are that much easier for folks to accomplish, with minimal tools. Pending on interest, we may look into making a smaller, and a larger version of this model, to help accommodate a wider variety of vehicles. | ||
