It's one thing to throw out suggestions but it's another to try and tell someone how to do their job! Let Matt handle it, he's been doing recovery out there for a while. He knows when, where, and how!

Ed is a treasure. The men and women of that generation were and still are hard as iron. Matt you should do a series maybe called "Story Time with Ed' and have him tell some of the stories about his life and things.

You just have to love Ed! Ed called you on it you will need to weld a 4 inch box on it. Axles are over the trailer and all 4 corners tied down should be good to go and not an inch to spare. Great to see the dogs, Lady herding poor Max. If I am ever your customer please do not show how dumb I am.

In the documentary Happy People: A Year in the Taiga a trapper takes a snowmobile trip home that lasts something like 14 hours through the snow and his dog runs the entire way.

[@ElkinsEric]

A guy who live by my great aunt has a Doberman name Poncho that will run 25-30 miles every other day following his Polaris Ranger while he checks his cattle fences and whatnot and his trap lines. If Poncho gets cold or tired, he’ll let him sit in the cab of the Ranger. But only for a bit and then the dog wants back out to run. I bet Ponch is the fittest Dobe east of the Mississippi. The dog looks like Arnold in his prime; he’s ripped! Not an ounce of fat on him.

Your trailer is worth it’s weight in gold. Have you tried C4RS ropes? They are American made, veteran owned and have exceptional customer service. I ordered a rope and soft shackle recently and I am blown away by the quality. They are also very competitively priced. It is worth a look.

[@CharlesLScofieldJr]

I agree with Ed, some of these offroad vehicles are just a smidge too long. Maybe you can put yours and your buddy Paul's head together to come up with removable bed extensions of say 8 to 12 inches. Maybe use some 3" square stock that some 2.5" square stock could slide inside of similar to the way the tow hitch receiver works. Then just weld some 1/4' diamond plate on top of the 2.5" square stock. Drill holes so safety pins would secure the extensions. I'm sure that between Paul and yourself it would be an easy modification to the trailer. For that matter, if I remember your son did a lot of the welding on the trailer. It might be a good project for him.

[@mariaweston5477]

What happy dogs!! I bet they sleep like logs at night. So fun to see them free range but always with you.

Ed -- 'He's got rocks in his head'.

[@daviddaughenbaugh5691]

If the Cam Am becomes any longer, all you need to do is somehow fabricate a removal extension piece to attached to the rear or front of the trailer. Maybe the top 1 1/2 foot of the ramp can be detachable with making a support under the extension to the trailer. Might also be easier to make an extension of the front and attach as needed.

Another thought. Have you seen the tire web/ratchet strap setup on the uhaul car haulers? Something like that added to your trailer would make anything easy to secure on there.

[@SurferJoe46]

Matt! An old tow driver like you KNOWS that hooks always face UP --- just like a J-hook. That way they won't release when the pressure comes off of them and whatever you're towing passes you on the highway! (bt - dt). VWs were especially bad at that on a hook/sling unit. But I learned to always set hooks with the throat facing up.

[@FarrellMcGovern]

That was a beautiful drone shot to end the video! Thank you!

[@edwinschlee8374]

They need to put some towing rings on those things. As long as the vehicle is on at 4 points the trailer is long enough! Good job Matt and Ed.

[@thomasdesmond2248]

I loved how you said you measured and built the trailer just big enough. Then old Edd throws you under the bus. Saying should have built the trailer longer. Lol God bless

The idea of using the booster box to power the winch is brilliant. Any time one thing can perform two functions, that is good.

The most tight squeeze. I had my doubts but you made a believer out of me. Is it time for a new build on the trailer? You are limited to the weight of the trailer because of soil conditions.

A longer trailer - well, eight [8] more inches - be just right. Think that would work Ed? Question Matt, do your dogs ever get tired running along side of and in front of your Jeep? Must be in terrific shape. Nice haul.

I surprised these off road rigs don't have recovery hooks

[@calvinh.8882]

That would cost Can-Am like $5 more per build, so they must be scared of the company going under if they put that much more into them. lol. Now being real, The amount they mark these things up, they should all have at least a trailer hitch on the rear like a lot of the Polaris's come with.

I am one of the guys that enjoys watching you recover side by sides. This one was not bad to load, but I have watched you winch some on that you had trouble loading straight. I thought you may could use a small snatch block on a short chain from the front edge of the trailer to get a better angle. Just a thought, enjoy your videos. Your attitude and lack of swearing, make them even better.

[@swaool]

[@eric9249]

Matt - you need one of those trailers without ramps. The type that pivots down like on a fulcrum. I don't know what they're called or anything about height - clearance etc etc.... But it would seem like a better design for loading/unloading all of these broken down side-by-sides.

[@o1mtbiker]

Something like a tilt type trailer? One that size would be very heavy and work against him.

[@eric9249]

Exactly, a tilt trailer! I figured it'd be heavier, but maybe it would ease loading enough to justify?

[@o1mtbiker]

Eric Feli they are probably twice the weight of the trailer he is using. Easier to load? Definitely. Easier to drag around? No.

[@eric9249]

[@nickm6670]

Maybe mount some foldable ramps at the hitch end then you can extend it for longer loads. You could make them fold like the tire jack ramps so the body of whatever is being towed clears the winch assembly.

[@jamesholland7268]

Perhaps you could build a trailer with a built in length extension and outriggers to extend the sides. The length extension could be one piece that slides out from the trailer and it has built in scotches every six to twelve inches on either side to help secure the tires. To accommodate the outriggers, the length extension would have an adjustable slot along each side, similar to an adjustable wrench, except there would be a lever that lowers the notches to allow sliding in and out.
