well I made a few miss calculations.. didn't get the hangers right. miss measured for the center axle so it didn't fit. so all my hangers but the last two need to come off, and the pivot hangers need to be made about 1 1/2 inches longer so the pivot will pivot all the way and not let the spring hit the frame. ugh the set backs......

Back of the trailer sure looks close to the ground. is it gonna make it out the drive way without scraping?

Back of the trailer sure looks close to the ground. is it gonna make it out the drive way without scraping? on level ground with the trailer level it sits 12 inches off the ground. I wouldn't doubt that I will scrape it from time to time. its 6 foot from the rear tire to the back, and about 7 1/2 feet from the front tire forward minus the tongue. everything I haul will be up on the flat part with the rear tires just at the crest of the tail. except for the crew cab, the rear tires will be riding on the dove tail part.

so heres a pic of it mostly done still need to replace the upper deck. and now after testing its capacity the dove tail bent down a tinny bit so I will try to floor jack it up when loaded and add some gussets where I should have it the first place, silly me I was in too much of a hurry...
