After watching how you designed and Drew up this trailer, it reminded me 100% of myself. I do the same exact thing. You had a really nice result too. Way to go.

Did you use sealant or butyl tape to bond the walls to the cage or did you screw directly into the frame? 0:14
@rgsabat2 ай бұрын
I screwed the wall panels straight to the frame with no sealant. I did put caulking on the roof panels before screwing them. I did this because I don't care about water intrusion (I pressure wash the inside of my trailer from mud after each trip). I would definitely add sealant or butyl tape if you don't want water to get in.

How did you get the 12 inch distance between tandem and centre of mass of trailer?
@rgsabat2 ай бұрын
It was an assumption that I made. Some trailers are built so that 60% of the total length is in front of the axle (in this case the trailer is 120" long so, 60% equates to the axle being 12" behind centre of mass). But, it could be any value that you want in your design.

Hi ! I need advices, Two 3500 lbs axles landscaping trailer 81 inches by 16 ft to be build . Am trying to avoid bad handling on the road , poor axles alignment, and bad load distribution. I wonder if the 60% rules is accurate, if I have to take the mesurement from the front of my frame or from the coupling point? Any better ways to find the optimal place to weld my suspension blade supports? Thanks in advance!
@rgsabat4 ай бұрын
The 60%/40% deck rule is not always accurate. But it is ok for general use trailer. The measurement is taken from the front of frame (deck), not from the trailer coupling point, to the middle axle bracket from where the suspension equalizer is located. So, 60% of deck length is in front of axles and 40% behind the axles. Make sure the deck is squared and that the axle brackets are exactly at the same location on both sides and the trailer will track straight. For proper load distribution, make sure to front load the trailer first. If your tow vehicle can handle the added hitch weight, you can located the axles at 70%/30%. To get the exact optimal axle location, there is calculations that can be done (see the first video in this series), but those calculations assume the load is at the same location on the trailer deck all the time.

@ern486 ай бұрын
@@rgsabat I am from WA state and they don't allow any form of welding chain links, probably an issue from shady logging truck accidents from way back. They do allow sliding a rod, shaft or other means through the link and weld that to the frame just not the links themselves, eliminating any possible chain link repairs. I love working with box tubing on trailers, flatbeds, dump trucks, etc so I enjoyed seeing your trailer, well done. I typically shy away from 45 corners and usually cap the long rails then use same length cross members with 90 ends, much easier to keep all of the dimensions dead on.

Mount spare tire on right side or curb side of trailer in front or behind fender will leave room in front for storage box 📦. One more thing to think of trailer jack will hit your tail gate of your truck make a set back mounting plate . In the a frame .that will work perfectly. 😂😂😂

@@hunterpaintingsforsale5067 I put caulking at the roof seems, it does drip a little in a few spots, but that is not a concern to me since everything is metal inside, except the wooden workbench. I raise the front end of the trailer when it is parked to let the water drip at the back. I normally tow this trailer with my slide-in camper in the truck bed, so there is no need for me to insulate it, but it could be done.
