    Rath's Trailer Build - First Test Pull Done!

    I'll look into it. I'll be ordering it through one of my customers who buys metal (they get a much better deal, large quantities and what not) so if they can get that I'll go that route then. Thanks!

    what sizing would work best then? or is that gonna be as close as I can get it? or would using 2x2 tube be best, and then buy a receiver to slide over and weld/bolt on, be better?

    Yeah that's what I was curious about. Not in any rush to get metal ordered up, would greatly appreciate if you could check and get back to me whenever!

    quick question, am I right in thinking that a 2.5" x 2.5" square tube with a 1/4" wall would allow a 2" hitch to slide in?

    I have no issue working out in the snow and cold, I've swapped leaf springs on my truck in -35 temps haha. More so the raw steel and snow/salt issues and the cold and trying to weld issues that are stopping me :P

    Hopefully will be ordering steel sometime this week. Then i can slowly get to welding it all up. Due to it being winter it may take a while since my shed is barely big enough to fit it, but I'll make it work!

    Makes a lot more sense to spend $15 on wood to do it, than a couple hundred on metal and hope you do it right haha.
