you are right .... I am way out of my element ... groupie I think is a good analogy ... never will I have the money to buy what I would love ... my only hope is, with help, to build one ... even trying to find a starter trailer it seems that so much work to get it close to what I want and I...

great ... now you cans sell yours to get back some coin ... I know they are not cheap .... garvin website has some cool add on stuff for the racks ... I am looking at their axe shovel mount ... got my rack on craigslist for 200 bucks (watched for more than a year looking) so at a hundred bucks...

ok here is mine as a frame of reference ......... first question ... keeping the ends and making a bigger middle section to get the length you want ... I would make an extension over building a whole new middle section ... still be quite sturdy (crossbar added at/near the joint) and be able to...

76 scout ? ,,,, just kidding ... they look great

so you need an adapter anyway .... thought jeep was 2.8 center bore .... but after going to that site it seem you can dictate your center bore size as needed as well as thickness ..... glad you got that figured out and will be watching for when you get them ..... Matt

ok Tekonsha's brake controller is in my amazon wish list ... P3 model I think .... had a chat with someone at redneck trailer supply and while they were somewhat helpful I was given a name of someone there that was on vacation that I was told to talk to .... will know more after talking to him...

its great that you are here to protect all those future customers ... while questions and criticism may have been welcomed I for one am so glad that someone building their first trailer posts up the thought process and build .... and he admitted to using a few of the recommendations ...

very close to what is going on in my mind also ... shooting for 58" wms ... and looking like 44-46 spring centers ..... subscribing as I am full of questions also ...Matt

love that flat green jeep ... that paint job gets me every time ...thanks for your comments ..... biff ... wow your setup looks like better rigs and trailers tour ... love how low COG is on that setup .... alia176 ... yours and hornets setups both look quite capable running thru those pics ...

thanks for all the responses ... it helps more than you know .... plan is to match the bolt pattern ... craigslist the rest and hope for the best ... thanks...Matt ..... edit..question .... will most 15 x 8 inch rims with say 3 1/2 inches backspacing fit on a 3500lb trailer axle with brakes ...
