i have thought about pulling one hole axil, but this thing was made to have a steel roof its hole life, and not have the frame take all the stress.
i think it would be like bending a pace of tin back and forth, sooner or later it will give....

some photos of when i made it a cargo trailer. starting 2/3 of the way down the page....
IsuzuPup.com • View topic - any intrest in parts at East Coast meet ?
i wanted to leave the sides at 3 foot all around it, but the sides made the trailer twist, shake, vibrate quite badly, so i lessened them.


its common for me to carry super local hay loads, so i have been toying with adding maybe 5 feet to the rear of the trailer.
to lessen the tunge load and make less trips....

also this would let me get a home made title for it, since i would have papers showing i had put steel in to it. and more or less reconstructed it in a manner of speaking.
a legal way to make a trailer home built in OR state.

its a deal where 3+ people have had the thing thru the years but no one transfers the title.
it has never been registered in my state, thus i can not apply for a lost title.
when i got it it was a rusting heap of junk that the guy wanted gone NOW!!!
i made him sell it for $1.00....so when dealing with WA state they could account for the 0.07c tax other wize it would have been FREE

i just got the trip permits to day for the drive, LOL the DMV is like wow what on earth are we going to do LOL
