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 ~10" while still maintaining the same ground clearance as a straight axle.
I was hoping to get away without brakes but when I am done, I would not be surprised if the trailer is close to 2K empty. As it sits, it is pushing 1500, those RKI boxes are nice but each one is 75 lbs...., another 50lbs for the spare, another 20 lbs for hi lift jack, etc
