cool! lookin good! me and my dad built one from scratch at his work. they ship 10 ton machines in these massive steel containers so we built one out of that steel. thicker than a car frame ill tell ya that!

Good for you dude. Fun stuff. When I bought my 10ton, dual wheel, tandem axle equiptment trailer it was a tag-a-long with a bent tounge and pintle hitch. Found on ebay a brand new goose neck cut off a new trailer to make it a tag-a-long. Made out of I beam, perfect shape... Snagged it for 280 bucks! Converted that sucker really fast.

I think it's just fun building trailers

 

[mudbogginsouthernboy]

Do you think I can fit 2 quads on it

 

[Gen1Pat]

Looks like you can, side by side width-wise.

 

[alex456123]

yeah, and making use of dead space! we made some under-deck storage compartments because there is so much space under there! i suggest ya make some!

 

[mudbogginsouthernboy]

How could I put storage space?

 

[alex456123]

cut holes in the deck and make compartments with trapdoors on the top! works great!

 

[mudbogginsouthernboy]

Got any pics

 

[alex456123]

not right now, its in storage. sorry but i can draw ya up an example!

 

[mudbogginsouthernboy]

Ok that would be alright

 

[alex456123]

it would be kinda like this:

the door with hinges and the space is pretty useful cause you can put gas tanks, tow ropes, blow up dolls, and whatnot in there

 

[alex456123]

i can do some blueprints for ya on request lol

 

[lbjamm]

You do pretty good drawings Alex.

 

[alex456123]

thanks dude that was a quicky! only took me of what 2 mins to do that? i can make a new thread on some of my **** lol. dont wanna interupt this thread!

 

[lbjamm]

i can make a new thread on some of my **** lol. dont wanna interupt this thread!

I'll pass on the **** but the drawings would be cool.lol

Drawings are good, but wouldn't those scrape on the ground if you were off the main roads?? The Warriors are roughly 6 feet long by what, almost 4 feet wide? You need a 6x8 trailer to put them side by side. If you were to really beef up the trailer and be wary of the wheel wells, you could make that six feet wide. Just a thought. My trailer is 4x8 and its pretty cheap but I'm able to build it out so I can put 2 warriors side by side... or a warrior and a dirtbike.. Idk, just an idea dude.

 

[alex456123]

no they arent close enough to the ground to scrape! they are pretty small so you could put your dirty riding gear and stuff in it. ours has 2 of them
