Simple home built trailer

I am a huge fan of function over fashion and your trailer is exactly that. It's simple and effective for what you need. Great job!

Hey thanks for your the comment on the hitch lift it is a 2500 lb warn winch mount under the bed to the bumper with a wireless controller it is about ten foot as seen but it will collapse that fit in the bed l keep the lift limit around 400 to 500 pounds and with airlift bags on the truck it doesn’t sag much at all
