    My slow going utility trailer build

    So I found a local shop that builds trailers and will be doing all the welding like the tongue work and bracing along the sides. So it should be taking off in about a week or so.

    My slow going utility trailer build

    Awesome thanks for the post. That answered my question and more. I'm new to this so I'm just now starting to get the grasp of things. So I'm thinking extending the tongue about 18" passed where it currently is. With the max coupler being around a foot, that should be plenty long enough even to...

    My slow going utility trailer build

    Yea I plan on getting a jack that mounts to the side and flips up. I haven't found any fenders just yet. That's a few things down on the list as of right now.

I could run a piece of square 2" tuning the length of the trailer and extend it past where the tongue sits...

    Hey guys, names dave and I'm new to the forum. I just picked up the 4x6 trailer on Friday and have already done a few things to it.
