I'm going to be buying a trailer soon. I can't find what I want, so I am going to probably have it built if I can find someone to build one for me. I don't trust my welding enough to build it myself. I just read two great threads on here and thought I'd see what you guys thought about my specs.
I definately want a steel deck. I haul junk cars some times and I need to slide them on. I am unsure on the ramps now that I have read on here about them. I currently put a jackstand under the rear of my trailer and most of the time it falls off. Maybe two small tongue jacks at the rear and then slide in ramps?
PM sent to Rockcity. Anyone else interested in building this?
I need a custom gooseneck trailer to haul a Bronco on 44 inch tires. www.extremebronco.com I also want it to be able to haul a regualar car or a load of equipment. I want it to be 20 foot long (18 plus 2 or 3 foot dovetail) and 8 foot wide in front and behind the tires. I also want it as low as possible (approximately 24" from ground to top of deck) to be more stable. The fenders should be sturdy enough to drive over and shouldn't stick up more than 6" at the most. I want 5200lb or 6000lb axles and both to have brakes. In TN break away is required and I would want it to have a battery and automatic charger. I also want a spare tire that is mounted to the trailer and a lockable tool box. The deck needs to be 92 wide in front and behind the tires with 2 inch stake pockets on each side with a rub rail connecting them. The decking would ideally be made of steel. I need a title and a durable tag mount. The lights ideally would be recessed into pipe for less chance of being broken. Ramps should be spring assist fold up with a leg that goes down to support weight while loading. I plan to keep this trailer forever, so I want premium paint, especially on the bottom. I want it to be as light weigh as possible, 4000lbs max - prefer 3000lbs.
While my specs seem to be very specific I am open to recommendations and money saving options.
