Thank you, very interesting and useful. A no frills tutor, yet everything we need to know is there, nothing hidden. If I get you and your wife right, you cut the original axle to make it shorter, because it was too long, so that you will have a narrow trailer, and then just put both ends in a straight line and weld it together again. Wow, that is a bold move ! Very comic, by the way, when your wife says: ''Now we've got to put the axles together, so we've got these THINGS ... HAHAHAAAhhh ! ... these THINGS ! ... very funny !...

Hey Carole, Thank you!!!!!! We cannot remember the exact cost of the build without pulling receipts, but it was under $500. The 2 most expensive parts were the one tire we had to buy and the axle from tractor supply- if you can find those 2 items cheaper then you could cut 1/3 of the price out o the build! We did buy the swivel trailer jack from Tractor Supply. I don't recall how much it was but it was just a bolt on jack. We do have Amazon links in the description for the 6 leveling jacks if you need those. Good luck with your build if you build one and let us know if you have anymore questions!

I guess by the date on this video that you have fixed the springs to work properly. An arched spring has to become longer under a load, and can't with 2 fixed points. If you haven't, then a look at any trailer made by a trailer company will show you what it should look like.

You can figure out the scaling based off of size of your printed copy and the few dimensions that are shown on the print. Use a ruler or measuring tool to figure out the scale. Then use it to find the exact measurements of the axle and Jack locations. This method is fairly accurate. It is how I built mine. Don’t hesitate to ask any other questions.
