Your trailer looks great! I am working towards building one of these myself so it is great to see roughly what it may look like. Are you adding ramps or just leaving it as is?

Keep up the great work!

Thanks, yes I am adding ramps. I'm having a set 3d printed so I can get a little more detail than just making out of aluminum.

Yeah, LOL. no it's going to be used for the D5 Dozer which is under the 20,000 cap. The track loader will be on my four axle low boy behind it.

Looking good. Im thinking of puilding one for my 6 wheeler i just built.

Yours Reminds me of the tag trailer I pulled. It was a 3 axel with a gravity tilt bed....dam thing never wanted to stay locked in the down position. Was a little scary loading in the rain as well!

Thanks Lmack, that would be a little scary having your trailer tilt on its own running down the road.

Still need to replace the axles and wheels, then add the ramps.

Yeah and warped, rotten boards and some rusted bent area where someone backed it into a building or concrete wall. :) In all honesty it looks great, well done.

Small update, got the axles, tires and rims mounted up. It sits right at scale height now. Also did a little weathering on the boards. None busted yet, lol.

This is a really nice build. Love all the details and clever use of servo arm and ball joint! The deck stains added more realism....just need to scuff some paint and tweak a beam or two and you won't know it from the 1:1. Great job!
