I built a trailer for me ad my wife for who ever breaks down has to get pulled off the trail and i have more ground clearance then you and i always get stuck when i go off-road with it so i say more ground clearance |

heres a quick update. i ran out of tube( dont you hate that?!) lol. but when i get more im going to put the rest of the sides on and box it in, the back will hinge up and down to load the quad and dirtbike on. i just made a simple drop hitch for the jeep becuase it sits so high. i know its not exactly scale, but its the only way i could get it to work Let me know what you think |

well, it seems that i bought the last peice of the tube i needed boefore, and no one has it for some reason. so i needed to change plans so i can actually get the steel i needed. so i made it alittle different. i removed the sides, and made it almost like a farm trailer, ill see if i can find a reference pic. ill post pics tomorrow
