Did you realize with that being an angle iron frame trailer and not channel or box, that that the side rails are part of the framing. Your capacity just decreased significantly. Check out any true no rail equipment or car hauler trailer the frames are always c-channel or tubing.
Wish I new that when I redid it. Thanks for letting me know though. Very interesting… Unfortunately it’s to late to go back. I guess my load with be decreased.
Add a 3x5 or 3x4 angle iron on the sides in front of the axle. basically weld them to each cross member. that should help regain structural integrity.@@cheekyspencer
overall your craftsmanship is good, and that's coming from a shop teacher. so good job on that end. see my other comment about regaining some structure.@@cheekyspencer
I think it might have, I didn't like the railing on the side when I would load a car or truck. It would be a pain to open the doors so I wanted to get rid of the railing. Also the original railing was poorly built. (bad welds, etc)
Love your video, but, please be more careful.... gloves-no gloves, eye protection-no eye protection, breathing gear-no breathing gear. Stay safe my friend.
Great job ! Remember if you don’t make no mistakes then you haven’t learned nothing new, you only practice what you already know.
inspirational
Very satisfying! Good work
Thank you! Cheers!

I know this is probably a long shot, but are you able to explain how you did the wiring and/ or a video?
Great video, let me know if it’s for sale dude! You did a great job!!
Thanks! Will do!
Doesn’t this make it a bit “weaker”?

No stake pockets or D rings?
should have added some. There are a few on it
Quite satisfying! 😂 I have no clue what all that welding was because you never said. Or maybe I missed it. Idk.
I had to put caps on the ends of the front rails because the hole was open after I cut it.
😍😍 wow
Thanks!

Thanks. Your definitely right. I’ll be better moving forward
Why? You just ruined that trailer.
I don't think I ruined it. I didn't prefer the railing on the sides.
