    Enclosed trailer thread #eleventy

    It started out looking at buying or building a shed to keep our dirt bikes in. We currently have 5, (pw50, ttr50, kx65, crf150 & 300xc, fwiw) Then I realized, why not just get a shed on wheels? That way it doesn't take half a day to load everything up just to go out for a few hours. Long story...

    best cheap(er) trailer brakes

    I've got to replace the brakes on my trailer. 7k dexters. any suggestions for brake sources? I know, buy it nice or buy it twice, but there's got to be a balance between quality and affordable. I see there are 360/per pair brakes on e-trailer, or 216 for 4 brakes on amazon. what have you used?

    The Blackfish Fab Trailer... Less is more?

    Been waiting till I finished to post pics. I'll post detailed pics based on any questions asked. I would call this luxury spartan. As in, it doesn't take much to make me happy, but what I have needs to be quality. Everything in the trailer as far as counters, cabinets, dinette, guest bed...

    This week's WTF trailer issue...

    I have a 4x8 trailer (Dad got it in the 80s/90s, Harbor Freight special, had 2 foot walls welded up on the sides with plywood & covered by sheetmetal). Anyways, both lights were cracked/not working, and plug was fubar from getting dragged. Basically it was ignored for 5+ years. Last week I...

    Hydraulic trailer jacks

    I want to replace the peg leg jack on my trailer with a landing gear setup. Are hydraulic jacks worth the extra money? Or stick with the traditional hand crank style with a cordless drill adapter? There is already a battery for the winch on board.

    Service trailer brake system

    I have fought with my 2008 3500 trailer brake system ever since I bought it. I’ve replaced the trailer brake control relay? 3 times now. Last one was OEM, and it’s gone bad again. Is there an updated one that won’t shit the bed? Is there something else I should look for? Or should I just wire in...

    School me on wood deck trailer tie downs.

    Looking at ditching my steel deck car trailer for a buggy hauler with a wood deck. I've always had steel deck stuff and the trailer I'm looking at has no anchors or d-rings only stake pockets with a rub rail. What's acceptable here to put D-rings on the deck? Normal duty would be my buggy...

    dump trailer wireless remote

    Reading Panz thread here gave me an idea about adding cheap wireless remote for my dump trailer. I can buy one for a dump trailer on Ebay for about $150. any reason I can't use a HF winch wireless remote? it's just tripping solenoids for the pump. the winch control shouldn't care that it's a...

    RZR Trailer build

    So I have always loved the Expo trailers that the Jeep/Tacoma/Overland guys pull. I have wanted to do something similar for awhile but never could really justify the cost vs use. I live in the Midwest and can't just throw gear, tent and cooler in a rig and drive around wheeling and camping like...
  12. ATV trailer

    So thinking I need to build a trailer. Wondering if y'all got some experience or opinions. Currently just transporting 2 ATVs, no SxS yet. Was thinking of flat deck, 8ft wide. Maybe 12-14ft long. Is that enough for 4 atvs? parked straight on? Then Single axle 3,500 pound with drive over...

    School my dumb ass; F350 trailer tow wiring.

    2012 F-350, started out with a bed but that got pulled off and replaced with a dog box. All the lights work on the truck, but we’re getting zero on the trailer connector with the exception of the turn signals. (maybe brake power too, haven’t checked that one. Running lights, backup and...
