Hey Daniel, Nice Job Replacing the Wooden Deck, Light housing, new LED Lights & Installing the Jack & D Rings. I have a Kaufman 18 footer Car Hauler with Tandem Axels & a Diamond Plated Steel Deck. Now that you have Nice new Wood on your Trailer; Don't forget to maintain it by Power Washing the Deck & Staining it every other year to maintain the look & preserve the wooden deck. I also have the underside of my Trailer Rust Proofed Sprayed every other year to prevent it from rusting. To avoid spraying Rust Proof, I am contemplating spraying the underside with Bed liner Paint. This stuff is Indestructible! Thanks for taking the time to share your Video.
The way you flexed the boards in was genius, you made it look 10 times easier than the other videos i watched, my trailer is a lot smaller than yours so the boards wont flex that easily but i wanted to commend you on how easily you get your steps through to the viewer and how simple the whole job seems, thank you!
You can't power a winch off the pigtail itself but add a battery to the trailer and the pigtail will charge the battery for the winch while the truck is hooked up. Another thing I did was mounted a switch and relay up to my winch battery that activates the trailer brakes while loading heavy equipment that keeps the trailer from surging back and forwards, especially helpful on 2wd trucks and it works like a charm to keep that stress off of the trucks parking brakes and also the parking pawl if an auto.
That opening scene edit was perfect, so creative! I have only seen that once before, but it does not compare to your finely tuned edit skills. Bravo man I am amazed.
@@guardinoinc.7490 imagine the video being cut into 3 sections, 3 videos playing side by side, but since the camera was in the exact same spot you can't tell there are multiple videos playing next to each other. the only thing the subjects have to do is not cross that imaginary section
Great effects on the intro. Good information. I am in the process of getting a trailer for my new tractor, and your experience was helpful. I could show you the importance of getting fasteners that are rated for treated wood, especially the newer formula treated wood. When I rebuilt my deck, the original screws were less than 1/16: diameter when they were replaced. The chemicals dissolved the fastener. I also used trailer deck screw similar to the ones you used, except in stainless. I did not have good luck with them, but yours worked much better. Thanks for the referral.
I am also in Western WA and just got my LX2610. Just wantd to let know I really appreciate all of your videos... I'm near shelton, hope I get to meet you sometime. thx again and keep them coming!
Something that most people don't realize is that you don't have to bend the boards to install them. The majority of wood deck trailers have a stitch welded strap over the boards on one end or the other. All you have to do is cut those welds, take the strap off and then weld it back on after you lay the boards in place.
What size was the Lincoln welder. It looked like a really good welder. Was that a gas or flux core. I guess that's what you would call it. Excellent job on the welding great beads.
Very nice job guys, I will be starting a redo on my trailer I built in 2008, I'm doing some mods and a repaint, I also would like to help explain the screws you used, these types of screws and sizes are my favorite to use, I did notice the way you explained the size of the screws that you used, to help to explain a little better, as listed on your screw box it reads, 1/4-20X3" this means that the screws are 1/4" in diameter - 20 means that there are 20 threads per inch - and 3 as you know is the screws are 3 inches long. the bigger the middle number is, it's the same rule if it says 8, 24, 32, or whatever that number is, it still means threads per inch, I hope this helps. Thanks for the video Kudoes
Great upgrades. One can never have enough tie down hooks. Also just a tip, to keep those stabilizer jacks working perfectly use lots and lots of lube on them. My tongue jack that was just like that took a crap because of not lubing it regularly.
I also put the trailer support jacks on the rear sides but ran into an unexpected problem 1 day. Went to let them down n crank handle was missing on 1 side. Had to replace jack (Not cheap) A simple $1 bungee cord hooked onto handle, wrapped around jack & other end hooked back to handle keeps handle from hanging down & getting torn off or catching on anything. Simple, cheap fix. Works for me & might for someone else. Jacks are hard to put down w/o a handle. ;-)
Nah you could of put the grinding and prepping in, me and my friends fully enjoy learning from you. We watch a lot of diy videos and yours are at the top because of your personality, u have alot of tools, talent, knowledge, etc...and your not egotistical about.
Love the cloning in the intro. Great improvements on the trailer, but why did you choose to put the new deck on first ? Seems that it would have smarter if you stripped the old deck off, performed all steel mods, touch ups and paint, then put the new deck on last.
Just hit the point where he starts unloading the new deck boards, and all I can think is...why have the old lady help unload when you've got 2 perfectly good clones at the ready? 🤔
Well beads look fine, as long as you got good penetration. Cosmetics are secondary. You want welds for show and best penetration then tig. Nice vid and great post production.
A much easier way to put your boards on is to cut the three tack welds at the back and take the retaining bracket off. Then lay your boards out and replace the retaining bracket and weld back in place. Keep you from having the jack up and bend each board into place. Nice intro by the way.
i always cut the front retainer out and replace it with angle drill 2 doles in the angle and the trailer and weld nuts to the trailer to bolt the angle to makes it so much easier to replace the decking i do this to every trailer i buy weather it needs decking or not
I used to weld a bunch of d-rings on my trailers. then I just put D-rings that slide into the stake pockets and just put a bunch of stake pockets on trailers now
Good video my trailer the side Chanel’s are reversed and the wood is held down with carriage bolts and I do like the jacks on the back my trailer on the ramps have legs on them and they are the pits thanks for the good ideas
Question for you sir. I have a car hauler that Id like to use on occasion to take my zero turn in for service. My issue is the spacing between the steel channel cross ties used to make the ramps are too wide for the front tires on the mower. Trying to drive the mower up the ramps is very uncomfortable at best. Any ideas on how to modify the ramps so its a bit easier to on/off load vehicles with smaller wheels?ThanksSteve
You mentioned wiring for a winch up to your plug. What size winch are you planning on using? Most winches need heavy gauge wire from battery up to winch. I don't think wiring up to bumper can support a winches needs.
Daniel Woodell good call. Heavier wire is better for the longer run but regardless the wiring in your trailer connector is not heavy enough for a winch. If running off your truck battery, be sure to keep your truck running, nothing worse than draining the truck battery using the winch and can not start the truck
Yeah that trailer and truck wiring won't run a winch, but that circuit is for a battery charge wire which could be used to keep a trailer winch battery (and/or breakaway switch battery) charged up from the truck. The 7-pin connector circuits are, in no particular order: 1) left turn/brake, 2) right turn/brake, 3) ground (not "neutral"), 4) backup lights, 5) electric brakes, 6) tail, 7) battery charge.
John Dough Yea 7 is battery charge lol... keep a trailer hooked up to your truck over night with 7 being a charge line you will kill the battery by morning. The Center pin/#7 is a constant Hot. So it’s just a live positive at all times.
@@lastchancecris On my truck the battery charge pin is hot only when the key is in the on position, so I don't have that concern. ('99 Superduty chassis cab.) Your mileage may vary.
great video, Xlnt job on the welds. great idea on swapping out the front 7pin harness those are always the first thing to go haywire since they get the most use in and out and thrown around when unplugging. fyi , your not going to run a winch off the extra power wire in the plug though, too small of gauge to handle a winch.
I have rebuilt a few trailers, it always works better to do all the welding and new wiring BEFORE installing the new deck. Access is better, welds don't scorch the decking. Otherwise, nice job.
I see so many people beat the shit out of themselves and trailer deck because they don't look at the way things are built. Wood deck trailers will have angle iron at one end of the boards. They then put the wood down and weld a strip of flat stock to the angle basically making it C channel. Cut about 4~5 1" welds and your done.
What is the gvw and make. My Jackson 16' is only 7000lb and too light duty. The frame is 2x4 thin wall tube. My local welding shop said frame thickness should be 3/16" not 1/8". I've already straightened the frame twice and welded and reinforced cracks. Some times you have to use what you have to get the job done. I need to either build or buy at least a 10,000 gvw but the funds never seen be there.
So turns out that it’s only a 10,000 pound trailer, that reading comes from the axles in the video I said it was the 14,000 pound that’s not accurate. What are the comments one of the guys explain the five lug nuts that means that each axles on the rate for 5000 pounds. I don’t know model trailer I need to getting this off of craigslist this is the second time that I had to refinish it
the 7000 Lb custom trailers I build are all made using 2-1/2 x 5 x3/16 they are properly engineer out, all factory trailers today are poorly made and not even welded properly that is why they sell so cheap, well a lot of dealer over inflate too, you have nothing but problems if you use them at there so called rating, cant tell you how many I have had to repair were the toughs brake off at the trailer deck, just welded to the front cross tube only, what happens when that flex's a lot there. as a welder by trade. ,back years ago when I first seen them trailers I would put my riding tractors on it, so I started custom building a good trailer that will carry saftly that 7 or 10,000 Lb load, I don't go any heavier because with a normal licese you can not tow ny load over 10,000 Lbs unless you have a class A
Hey I don’t know if you will see this but I just saw your video and it blow my mind for a quick sec how you started the video of 3 of you. I really like that. And also your weld work is really good.
Daniel Woodell I wish I knew how to do that. With the video editing. Also if I was close to you I would see if you wanted to do some welding for me. Also.
That is a 10k trailer, i have also seen d rings welded to the side of the tube, rip the tube apart, we weld a 1/4'' plate to the tube and then weld d ring on, usually on the top of the tube. Nice trailer and good work!
Great vid, EXCEPT for using those stupid blue scotch lock wire things...Those deck screws are for treated wood because the treated wood will eat the other screws. It might have been easier to remove one end of the trailer, how the deck boards 'fit into' each lip then just weld it back on. But yea, great vid.
This video is much appreciated. I basically have the utility version of your trailer. Mine is an 18ft tandem Acker flatbed . I have the two ramps but have never loaded a car. I was wondering what what mods you might recommend and what would you think of some d-rings in the middle of the wheel wells? That seems to be the spot I always need an anchor point. Thanks in advance for your time and reply. Tim Boër Managing Partner US Garage Auction Co. LLC. 1-844-2-USGACO
Bad ass, I am in the market for a tow trailer for my jeep. I lack the space to work something this size but it is super motivating to maybe not buy new and make a used one my own.
It’s a Kubota L3200, with BH77 backhoe. I’m a lot harder on it than it is really made for. It has held up well. I did buy it new. The tractor and back hoe where $27,000. I have made grades many times and also got a few more implements. At this point I have had it for about 3 years, and spent about $35,000 on it and all the implements. That does not include any of the maintenance for having to fix the things that I damaged.
Dude, I can save you a shit ton of time and hassel next time you redeck a trailer. On one end of the trailer (usually the front) will have C channel to hold the lumber. On the other end it will be made from 90° angle iron with flat bar stitch welded across the top of the deck boards. Next time cut the flat bar welds, set the boards in and weld the flat bar back on to the angle iron.
Yup in retrospect it would have been a lot easier to cut that end plate off, Most of the videos I wanted did it the way I did, but I think that because most of those guys did not have a welder.
Another great video as usual, keep up the great work. And if you ever think of replacing that trailer, check out Butler trailers, very high quality trailers near you.
Can I buy the trailer? That qualifies as a question right? And as far the welding thing goes.... a lot better than mine then again you have a better welder too......
You can save yourself a shit ton of time redecking next time. Either the front or rear board keeper channel should be angle iron instead of C iron . Then after they put the wood deck on, they weld flat bar across the wood to hold it. You just have to grind off the stitch welds off and remove the flat stock, replace the boards and weld the bar back on.
Yup even with the fasteners I used I really should have drilled a pilet hole. I really hope that I don’t have to referb that trailer again while I own it.
Man nice work on the intro bad ass a couple of things I want to add 1 you spend a good amount of time making sure things were done right and you blown all that nice wiring sky high with those scotch connectors at least get some butt connectors that have the heat shrink build in to the they cost just a little bit more but will save you a crap load of time later by having all of your lights working like there supposed to 2 do not try and run a winch on that extra wire you now have a wench is going to pull way to much thru that little wire however you can use that wire to charge a battery other than that great job and keep up the good work

gave a thumbs up just because of that intro without watching the whole video
you should let the wood shrink for a couple months before screwing down,staining or waterproofing.
Is that your wife? She shouldn't help if there's 3 of u 😂😂
I'm looking at building my car trailer so thanks for the tips👌
Good video bro keep it up.
Great video. Did you make a video of the tool box install on the front of the trailer?
Nope that was installed before i was making RUclips.
Nice!!
I do not know what you paid for that box of connectors. But they are available at almost any -arts or big box store in a smaller quantity.
Plasma cutter for the win!
Nice bead on the welds
Bad ass, I am in the market for a tow trailer for my jeep. I lack the space to work something this size but it is super motivating to maybe not buy new and make a used one my own.
You deserve one billion likes for the intro 😩😩😩😩😩
What welder machining use
Love the video game theme music
Kickass intro
@danielwoodell what model is your tractor Backhoe? Did you buy it new or used? And how much did you pay?
It’s a Kubota L3200, with BH77 backhoe. I’m a lot harder on it than it is really made for. It has held up well. I did buy it new. The tractor and back hoe where $27,000.

Is your welder out of wire
Hi. Did you know if I can make my trailer to carrying more weight.
J.A TRANSPORT best bet is better axles and more leaves in the leaf springs
do u have a video about the bumper being installed please?
Where do you live? I liked the landscape!
Dude, I can save you a shit ton of time and hassel next time you redeck a trailer.
On one end of the trailer (usually the front) will have C channel to hold the lumber. On the other end it will be made from 90° angle iron with flat bar stitch welded across the top of the deck boards.
Next time cut the flat bar welds, set the boards in and weld the flat bar back on to the angle iron.
Yup in retrospect it would have been a lot easier to cut that end plate off, Most of the videos I wanted did it the way I did,
but I think that because most of those guys did not have a welder.
Does anyone know what he used welding to the trailer for the jacks, is it something you can’t buy or do you have to make.
It comes with the weld on jack, just make sure you buy the world on one it will come with that inner sleeve.
@@DanielWoodell ok got you. Thanks video was much help for my trailer build.
Another great video as usual, keep up the great work. And if you ever think of replacing that trailer, check out Butler trailers, very high quality trailers near you.
Can I buy the trailer? That qualifies as a question right? And as far the welding thing goes.... a lot better than mine then again you have a better welder too......
You can save yourself a shit ton of time redecking next time.
Either the front or rear board keeper channel should be angle iron instead of C iron . Then after they put the wood deck on, they weld flat bar across the wood to hold it. You just have to grind off the stitch welds off and remove the flat stock, replace the boards and weld the bar back on.
don't be giving the ship away
How spring are made
VERY GOOD EDITING
My trailer re-decking went a lot faster when I first drilled with a 3/16" pilot drill. I had a little different fasteners I got from Fa$tenall.
Yup even with the fasteners I used I really should have drilled a pilet hole. I really hope that I don’t have to referb that trailer again while I own it.
Where are in WA did you get the jacks? I need some for my dump.

Man nice work on the intro bad ass a couple of things I want to add 1 you spend a good amount of time making sure things were done right and you blown all that nice wiring sky high with those scotch connectors at least get some butt connectors that have the heat shrink build in to the they cost just a little bit more but will save you a crap load of time later by having all of your lights working like there supposed to 2 do not try and run a winch on that extra wire you now have a wench is going to pull way to much thru that little wire however you can use that wire to charge a battery other than that great job and keep up the good work
