so for those of you that have me on Facebook you would know i built this car trailer in one weekend and a week of after work in the shed to replace the 'pie van' enclosed car trailer i had that cost too much in fuel towing it

I'm going to make the call and say its the best car trailer I've ever towed and I've had second opinions from other people that has towed it and everyone has loved it the one different thing I've done is add another shock to each wheel

photos speak louder then words so this is the build of it start to finish the basic deck measurements were 4.8m long and 2.5m wide and rated to 3.5t

once i find the part numbers for the coils and shocks ill put them on and it has adjustable camber/caster too

ps thanks bruce for the bushes

That's an awesome trailer. Could bag it and do away with the ramps.

that horny wombat is good shit its 50/50 hit ratio though a lot isn't worth buying because they try and do 100 different things i like going there just trying everything at the brewery

and i thought about bags for the trailer but because i drive on a lot of shit and corrugated roads i went for the heavy duty suspension that could take it best way to go for me

What does it weigh? This is such a cool trailer I am getting terrible thoughts about building something similar.

Can you upload some images not using Photobucket? Sounds like a great build but I can't see any of the images.

There's a "plug-in" for Google Chrome that allows the photobucket images to be seen - just google photobucket chrome and it'll be one of the first few links.
