    Besco Folding Trailer

    I have NO association with this listing, but I thought the trailer was unusual enough to share. http://buffalo.craigslist.org/for/3129970833.html

    The "YesDearIReallyDoNeedAnotherTrailer" Trailer

    Found this on CL, and had to have it. Dimensions are 42 x 48. Full frame. First order of business was to remove that wood. The supports are aluminum and nice, though. Secord order of business is to sand off that rattle can paint job, even though it matches the Jeep. I have a 3500 lb axle that...

    Bought a brand new 27 year old trailer

    I bought a "trailer in a box" today by the side of the road for $100. It is the same thing as a Harbor Freight bolt together trailer at 48 x 38 inches. It is brand new, and the MSO is dated January 1985! It was originally purchased at a small chain hardware store here in the area that went out...

    Grote 5370 light wiring diagram

    I have a pair of Grote (5370, 5371) trailer lights. I have no wiring however. Each light has pins labeld A-E. I am not sure which pins are for which function. The Grote website just displays the plug, but does not depict which pins are for what. Any hints, or should I just start experimenting?

    Confirm my axle measurement, please

    The TUB of the trailer is 49.5 wide at the outside edges. The Rims with tires mounted have a 7.5 backspacing (wheel mounting face to inside edge of tire when loaded on the ground) 49.5 + 7.5 + 7.5 = 64.5 Granted, that would mean the tires would rub on the tub of the trailer. My wheel...

    Practical to widen an axle?

    I have a brand new 3,500 lb axle, and, long story short, I ordered it a bit too narrow. I need to add about five inches to allow adequate tire clearance and run the rims I want. I have not had this kind of work done before, so I need to ask, is it cost effective to have this one widened and new...

    Lets start another one

    I picked up a Coleman Versa. Nice, light trailer. Already have a 3500 lb axle ready to mount and will run wheels to match the JK. This trailer is so small that the wheels might look kinda silly on it, though. For those not familiar with the versa, those are 12 inch wheels on there now, so you...

    Spring under or over axle?

    New member looking for insight. I have a 4 x 8 trailer that is very heavy duty. 2 foot tall steel sides. 4 foot tall Drop down tailgate that serves as a ramp. Home made, so I cant tell you too much about it. I will be towing it behind my Jeep JK. When I got it, it was a spring under axle...
