that would look sweet if he has another wheel to spare!!!!

Believe it or not I thought of that but it cost too much already. At least with the wheels and tires can be used on the truck too and rotated. I also thought about a tool box on the front, to keep the tie downs in


rcluke. I didn't keep track of the cost but I'm guessing $75.00 - $100.00 I had to but all the wheels, tires, axles, knuckles, angle aluminum, wood, hinges, nut's, bolts and flat bar aluminum. The trailer frame and ramps only took about 4 hours but the fenders took a lot longer. They were a bear getting them just right.

yeah bending metal sucks sometimes its really tough to work with!!! but overall its a very nice trailer!!!

Thanks, it was fun to build and now I have a nice car stand to display the truck on.

buckmaster119

yep, im so interested i might have to make a trailer over winter cause i cant drive my cars so gotta have something to do!!!!!!!

rcluke

I agree I think i might HAVETO make myself a trailer now after seeing all your good work

i might just make a simple one to start with, then maybe modify it (neons, big rims, low profile tyres, (the essentials))

I got the aluminum, sheet metal and nuts and bolts at the local hardware and all the rest from the hobby shop.

buckmaster119

basically go to home depot and ask them for aluminum and they'll have it or if not go to like ace hadware or some other hardware store.

http://www.mcmaster.com/ has an array of building material. Aluminum, lexan, plastic, you name it. They have bars, tubes, cubes, sheets, balls, and other stuff.

You have one nice trailer raz!

raz54

Thanks, I appreciate that. I finally got around to grinding the bolts down flush so they don't stick out now so it looks even nicer now.

Dudelive

You could think about an overhead tire rack for the trailer up front out over the hood of the car as some of the real trailers are. Then a tool box on the tongue. Looking Nice

Thanks

I like it! Thanks.

Do I smell a trailer build off in the air?!???!

raz54

Sounds good to me, I accept the challenge. I think we should allow anyone else to join in if they want to and we would need a cut - off date and then a poll to decide the winner. Since this was your idea I'll leave it up to you.
