Trailer opinions

[iplaywithrocks]

Anyone have experience with yeah racing .. extra speed .. or rc4wd trailers . They are expensive so would like a few opinions on quality fit and finish

I personally like my Integy trailer. I know they get a bad rep, but it’s solid.

Sometimes nerve-racking, but can be alot of fun and rewarding to build your own! Sometimes finding stuff that 'fits' or can be modified to look like you envision can at times be challenging to say the least! And over time it's a definite boost to your level of patience!

RC4WD is nice, but HEAVY, real heavy.

Very happy with my little integy. Had to swap out the springs for something softer, but it's worked out great.


Been eyeing up one of the $100 hauler trailers on Ebay... Xtra Speed, Chinaspeed, whatever they are. Just haven't pulled the trigger yet. Even if they are a bit funky, it's a good enough base to build on imo.

I picked up an RC4WD trailer earlier last year. It’s ok for what it is but since the tongue is the weak point (where the ball locks in), I don’t use it as much as I’d like since I’m on my 3rd replacement tongue of the 5 I bought for spares.

I'm building one as well. still a work in progress.

Gvus ... maybe these would help. I just received some yesterday - haven't tried yet but they are awesome scale looking and work like the real thing! There's a metal piece underneath that hugs around bottom of the ball.

Think this is just a tad overstated, Not sure how challenging a trailer build could be? Especially cause the base is 2 wheels and the hitch.

Think it's a simple little build. Read a post discussing independent or solid axles, the solid being the preferred.

Still sort of, not really wondering how that could be the case ? When every 4 wheeled car trailer, and down to these small utility jobs,
Are independent in the real world rollers.

Want a challenge to test ones skill and patience, try modeling in "N" scale, now that is a education.

Do like the builds shown...

Yes, the smaller the scale the more determined one must be. But, its mainly in the builder, not the build. Not all of us have the same skills, dexterity, mobility, knowledge or faculties. One man's challenge can be another man's ease.
