Like the post says... 1000# at full speed but that's over rough terrain at full speed. I'm confident it will carry more than twice that on typical dirt road. Axles are 3500#. Articulation wasn't really a consideration in this build. I wanted something that could handle rough doubletrack like...
For your consideration a project I have been tinkering with for several years is available for you to use to advance your project. Perfect trailer base for your expo build. Just design and build your idea of the perfect camping box and bolt it to this one off custom trailer.

Amazing creativity, design, execution, and craftsmanship. Read the thread start to finish and always appreciate the sharing of solutions and techniques. Beyond impressed. Well done Paul.
