Hoblick Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 ive been extremely busy and havent had any time to finish the trailer up.i finished as much as im gonna do for now lol.. will be using this to haul down to florida in a few weeks.didnt really have much left to do except mount a tongue box, mount some D rings for tiedown points, and mount my spare tire carrier and spare wheel and tire.gonna pick up a spare set of bearings before i leave as well. still gotta go get it registered the tongue box is a perfect fit, and will hold 2 helmets, 2 sets of boots, 2 sets of leathers, and gloves. which is exactly what i was hoping for.welded in some bracing to strengthen the a frame as well as give me some mounting points for the tongue box.

oldschoolsdime92 Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 Where'd you round up those d rings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigerpaw Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 its a trailer tongue box, got it at TSCGreat minds think alike. I just finished my 4x8 folding trailer(minus my chock install). I've been eyeing that same box at TSC.I have to decide how much it will hinder the foldability. I might install quick release pins for it.

RHill Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 have you found spare bearings for the trailer? I'd like to score a set before spring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madcat6183 Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 Hobs, definitely like the extra frame bracing up front, that was a concern I had looking at the first 2 pics, but you already knocked that out. The long V tongue would have been the only weak point I think and with the trailer box I think it even helps to add more rigidness to the trailer.Looks good!

Tigerpaw Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 I have the same chock from HF. What position did you put the pivot bolt in. Mine came mismatched, middle and lowest? I didn't notice and couldn't get the bike out without taking it apart. I will try the lowest setting next. Also, it really had my front tire rubber pinched and rolled. Not sure if it will regain its form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
