  • Harbor Freight Folding Trailer Assembly Video. This is a a complete “how to assemble a harbor freight folding trailer” guide. In this video we show you how bolt the frame together, put together the trailer hitch, axle and the wheels. These Harbor Freight folding trailers are easy to assemble if you follow the instructions.
    We started with laying out all of the trailer parts on the floor and taking a quick inventory. Next we bolted the two main frame sections together followed by the trailer tongue assembly. The axles, leaf springs and wheels were next to go on.

    I’d put the chains on the underside of the top flange to help simplify the forces involved, but this should be super strong enough.

      Thanks for commenting! with the 12 inch tires, the top of the frame sits at 20 1/2 inches. I also measured my old trailer with the 13 inch wheels and upgraded tires. That measurement is 22 inches.

    could you install a deck that hung off the front of the frame on the hitch side with out impeding the function of the trailer? if so how far up could you go do you think?

    • @MrFredsDIY
      @MrFredsDIY  Месяц назад

      If you follow the shape of the tongue, you could probably go 24 inches or so. If not, then you could probably only go 12 inches is my guess.

    Your video is really helping me with my HF 1720 trailer build. I'm having fits getting the wheels on the axle spindle at the moment. It seemed you left the shipping grease in the hub - did you add any more grease after installing the wheels? If you did (or if you just know), what grease can I just add to the hub with the shipping grease without having to clean out all the old grease and removing the back seal too?

    • @MrFredsDIY
      @MrFredsDIY  Месяц назад

      Harbor freight says that this grease in trailers they currently sell is not shipping grease and is appropriate for use. I used marine grease with my grease gun to add several pumos at each zerk fitting.

      @@MrFredsDIY Thanks! The internets say it's not cool to mix grease, but if you just added marine grease that's great since it's what I prefer to use. I've also got some Bearing Buddies coming, but not quite sure on the size. Again, the interneters claim the 2047ss is a fit. I think I'll remove the tire from the hub to give it another shot at installation and I'll measure the dust cap&Hub ID to verify the 2047ss.

    • @MrFredsDIY
      @MrFredsDIY  Месяц назад

      @michaelmiles4141 bearing buddies are on my list. I’m going to try the 2047ss first as well. Fred Jr and I put bearing buddies on his boat trailer, and I have to say it was not as easy as I thought it would be.

      @michaelmiles4141 Месяц назад

      @@MrFredsDIY I finally got the wheel on. Turns out the spindle was just a smidge rough behind the threads and the outer bearing wasn’t sliding on. Some twisting and gerfiddling got it on there. I also measured the dust cap and 2047 is the correct size.

    So do you need to remove the carriage bolts from the spring mount every time you want to fold the trailer?

      Yes. It’s really not too inconvenient.

    • @MrFredsDIY
      @MrFredsDIY  2 месяца назад +2

      After I finish filming the lighting installation video, I will take it to the DMV for an inspection. They will match my purchase receipt & title to the vin stamped on the frame. Once it passes the inspection I can get a registration and license plate.

    • @watvannou
      @watvannou 2 месяца назад +2

      The same way you get one for any other vehicle? The trailer comes with a certificate when you buy it and you present that to clear roadworthiness requirements and then pay for a plate. (at least that's how it went for me in Canada)
