Default Re: Trailer question

A this point I am thinking the 4x8 would be the best for parking in the garage. I do have a back seat so the tilt down ramp will be an issue.

2 inches to spare on each side with perfect alignment is alittle concerning. I will have to use ramps. Not sure I can load it without scraping the fenders.

Has anyone used a trailer 48" wide?

We keep coming up with more concerns, spend 1200 dollars and yank it with no worries.

Yea I usually torture myself on these decisions but I do want as small a footprint as possible. Neighborhood assc and my wife don't like trailers in the driveway. It has to fit in my garage/workshop so I keep coming back to the smaller trailer.

It has 4' side rails I could grind off, that would eliminate the scraping issue.

Any othe issues to think about?

I have loaded plenty in a pickup with 49 inches inbetween the wheel wells.


What are you going to pull this trailer with?

My Mistake! I should have asked this question first. It will not safely haul a 12-1500 pound load without brakes..... NO way ~ no how!

Scotty and flint, I did these years ago before the dawn of cameras and computers.
It was just a 2" cylinder mounted under the trailer. I really don't have any specs on length because as usual I used what I could get my hands on.
It was mounted in the middle of the distance between the trailer pivot and front latch assy.
Two short hoses with a flow control valve in the middle.
I'll see if I can put a visual together and post it.

I dunno? Check the manufacture's recommendations for towing capacities without brakes.... I only know about trucks.

CRash, That would be great if you can could start a new thread in the design center or such? I'll keep an eye out for it
