Can you post more pics and specs of your roll bar and how you attached it to your trailer. Nice build.
What did you get for your lights/wiring?
Clean looking build. How is the tongue weight with the spare?
HA. It made the decision to remove the surge brake assembly that much easier. Only a few drops of fluid were in the entire system. Yes, the cap just screws off.
~2"x1.5"
The fit front to back is good. A little bit of movement but just enough to allow easy removal. I tried this stake in all the pockets and it was obvious that not all of the pockets are the same. Side to side, the fit is tunable. I will probably cut each stake a little thicker then...
Prototype looks good. This was 14 ga scrap. I will probably make the main rack out of 3/16 and only use a stake in each corner. I am giving some thought to drilling out the spot welds that hold the spring clips inside the pocket then boxing the stake.
You can get electric brakes that have a parking brake. Use the mil brake levers and just make some new cables.

I think you are better off leaving the drum on the hub and removing the hub/drum assembly.

Been a while since my last update. Nothing major just a few things to make it a bit more useful. The "to do" list is still pretty long and progress is slow. Now I am kicking around the idea of putting a torsion axle on it. It will allow me to get some electric brakes and will drop the deck...
It's funny, I ended up scrapping a lot of parts because of that membership too. I wonder how many pays have been trashed because people do not want to pay to use the for sale section. The only work around is for more people to use the parts wanted section then go through PMs.
