Message: [QUOTE="hunt4steve, post: 1157301, member: 75296"] I thought about the one from Harbor Freight, but then I came across this article. [url]http://motorcyclebloggers.com/2006/04/05/the-life-and-times-of-building-a-harbor-freight-folding-trailer/[/url] and started to reconsider that option. I've had some large trailers in the past; 8'x16' to haul my 4Runner when I had a F250. When I had my Raptor quad, I had a small utility trailer (wish I still had that one), but sold it as well. So, now I'm thinking I would like to stay clear of the registration stuff for the trailer, and just make something simply that can haul the bike (260lbs or so) to the trails. The bike is registered for the street (don't ask how), but of couse the tires are not street material. I really like the Versahaul trailer, but I just can justify spending that much money when I have the ability to build my own. I have a Millermatic DVI MIG welder sitting in my garage. I just purchased about 90 dollars in steel material, which is a heck of a lot cheaper than the cheapest carrier I could find ($159+ 30S&H+Tax). As for welding and my skills, I have designed my entire front suspension on my 1999 4Runner Limited with 12" FOX Racing coils, 3-Link D44 axle riding on 37" MT/R tires. With my 35" BFG tires, I can drive up to 85mph with no hint of Death Wobble, and I can crawl the canyons of Moab with ease. So, I'm confident in what I can produce. Basically, I over-engineer my products. Anyhow, I'll post up my design (some ideas from the Versahauler), and my build when I get done. [/QUOTE]
