Great little trailer.,

September 7, 2010

By hbilow

"I bought this trailer for one purpose, to get 2 17 KW generators from Florida to Michigan. It went together very easy, even had SAE sized grade 5 bolts. I made a wood top & sideboards for it, put 950 lbs load on it, and towed it 1600 miles. I stopped 2 times along the way and put grease in the bearings (there are zerks in the dust caps), and never had an issue. It towed very well behind a Saturn Vue, never affected fuel mileage. I planned on selling it when I got to Michigan, but decided to keep it because it worked so well."

40x48 red trailer 12" tires,

June 1, 2010

By artack

from Toronto Ontario

"I was impressed by the overall quality of the trailer. All nuts and bolts were great quality. Trailer went together very easily and the instructions were simple to follow.
I'm glad that I upgraded to the 12" tires as it will make towing easier.
I also purchased a trailer tongue jack so that the trailer can be wheeled around when it has a full load. This is a bit of overkill for such a small trailer but it is handy.
Good deal for the money."

Great little traile kit!,

May 31, 2010

By gldean

from Jamestown, NC

"This is a great kit for making a small pull behind for lawn/garden, hauling a Motorcycle or even towing behind a motorcycle.

The instructions are easy to follow and the construction quality is very good.

If you're looking for a lightweight trailer that can be made into a box, framed sides or mount a rail for hauling a Motorcycle, then this kit can't be beat for flexibility and price.

I would do this project again!"

40 x 48 Utility Trailer,

April 19, 2010

By ToolTimeGuy

from East Coast

"I bought this trailer with only one use in mind. I wanted a trailer to mount a standby generator on that I use at my hunt camp. I must say that this trailer fit the bill with exceptional marks. It was easily assembled and the generator fit on it perfectly. I bought a trailer dolly also and now one person can move the generator around whereever we want to place it. I'm not sure if I will ever pull this thing down the road or not but if I do, I believe it will handle the ride. No complaints here. I would buy another one if the need arose and would recommend one to anyone that has a special usage need like mine. It rolls over the uneven terrain well and with the dolly, it sits level so the generator runs smoothly."

Nice Trailer,

October 19, 2009

By threejays

from Berea, Ohio

"The trailer is great for hauling camping gear behind my Honda Civic.

The trailer is light enough that it can be unhooked and moved around manually, however I added a rolling jack for convienence.

You will need a sheet of plywood for the trailer deck, some 1x4's for the stake pockets, 3/8" hardware (for attaching the wood deck), and two free evenings for assembly.

I only had two small assembly hurdles, First: The front side marker lamp mounting screws protrude directly into the center of the front stake pockets (requires cutting a slot in the front stakes) and Second: There is no wiring hole for routing the electrical to the rear tail lights (I ended up drilling a small hole in the frame).

This is a great little trailer for anyone who has a small car with a 1-1/4" hitch."

Great Load Carrying Capacity & Exceptional Value,

March 17, 2009

By jackbquick

from Durham, NH

"I was happily surprised when unpacking the contents of this small affordable trailer kit packaging to find clear and easy assembly instructions, parts packaged carefully to eliminate shipping damage, and all parts fitting easily together during assembly. It is a perfect trailer with the optional 12" wheels for towing up to 1060# loads behind my 4 cylinder Saab 92X. Actually, I purchased 2 trailer kits intended for building a couple of prototype mobile hybrid PV/wind power generating systems with back up battery banks."

Nice trailer,

August 18, 2008

By Capysolo

from Hampshire, IL

"I bought this to pull behind my motorcycle. When my friend and I built it (which only took a couple of hours) I realized it was too big. So we took it all apart, cut it down, welded it up, and put it back together. So effectively I built this thing twice! Everything fits together nicely, and it looks nice when it's finished. Well worth the money!!!"

I would not suggest any modifications to this unit. There are two easy fixes to your problem. Changing out your current ball to a 1 7/8 or using a tri-ball hitch for easy changes between sizes. A hitch extender can be used to make a longer tow bar.
