Stix,Thanks!
Arioch,I'll do a vid of how that hitch works.If your good for now,when we get together next time,I'll let you put your finger in the clamp unit,& see how long before you say uncle :eek: . When I first built the hitch,thought I was smart & but MY finger in it & turned it on,I'll never do that again! So then had to see just how much hair it had,stuck a piece of wood in it & it made tooth picks out of it.
So Jammer I think that it might surprise you how much that trailer will hold before it starts to flex. It has 4 c-channel & 4 solid stock beams for main frame. Call me when that baby is in the trunk,& your on the way,I'll git us a nice site ready!
Guys thanks!
