Awsome video, I have same trailer since 2014 and wanted same thing. Just haven't had a chance and your video is best of all the ones I've seen. Thank you I just got more motivation
Really badass conversion loved both videos. My brothers long time buddy is letting us have any trailer on his property in Oregon and they are all boat trailers so we're gonna try and build something similar thanks for your knowledge old-timer
A hint so that when you are driving up your wooden ramps when they are wet so that you don't slip off is to get a walking belt off of a scrap treadmill and cut fit and staple it to the boards. Learned that the hard way loading up the 4 wheeler. The walking belt gives pretty good traction.
by design it is a touch on the tongue heavy side but that's how I like it. Still well within the hitch capacity. No fishtail action here. I loaded a pallet of mulch (75 bags) and placed the center of the pallet just ahead of the axle and it towed perfect. This axle position gives you options to put the weight where you want it.

Very inspiring, Great job. I may use you’re idea on my single boat trailer. 😊
Go for it!
Very nice job. Good looking trailer.
Thanks, I use it quite a bit. One of my favorites that I have built.

Thank you for the advice.
Looks awesome! Makes me want to start a project!! Only downside is i dont know how to weld haha
Don't let that stop you! You'd be surprised how easy some things that look difficult! All it takes is a bit of determination and willingness to learn
Cool build! Great attitude!
Glad you enjoyed it
It pays to haves good brain to work with...GREAT JOB!!!
Well thank you for the kind words.
Love it!! It turned out great
Love it. Can you give me a parts overall parts cost?
Awesome built! What type
Welder did you use?
Very helpful I’m about to do the same project with a boat trailer myself
Hope yours turns out as good as mine. I use mine a lot.
I've never seen anyone work so fast
thinking of doing the same thing. you used the tubing because you already had it....what do you think of 2" angle iron for cross members?
Thanks we in Hollywood Fl
Really a nice design.
Thank you
thanks for the idea now im doing the same thing for a school project
Have fun!
@@Michaelsbackyardmarina can you tell me what paint you used
Nice job man. Cool!!
"Puck-em-up" truck is my SECOND new favorite word, after "calcumalations" lol!!!
Another good one...thanks for watching.
That's talent!
Thank you for the kind words.
Q, what drill bit did you use to go through the steel?
Is the trailer a little heavy on the tongue when loaded? The axle is pretty far back.

Nice build but definitely need wider ramps though
for sure, thanks for watching
Do you remember what paint you used? Its been a year now, how's it holding up?
Rust oleum. That trailer has has thousands of pounds hauled on it and it works perfect.
Nice job!!
Thanks!
Excellent
You said - Beaver & tail, huh huh 😃
Nice trailer...where`d you buy it? LOL

Haze Gray and underway.
