Re: Oilfield King Hauler
 

Well friends ,I guess its trailer time, I would like to build a pipe trailer from the Tamiya trailer kit ,but as mentioned in a earlier post having to save some $$$ right now,kicking around the idea of building a Frac tank trailer ,I have all the parts on hand to build it ,some cut off sheets of thin guage metal and a set of wheels and axles similar to the bruder wheels ,plenty of wire on my wire welder ,other parts .:) already have a small start ,getting all the measurements ,marking lines to cut and etc...
Here's what I have in mine ,something like this trailer,pic to follow
Its looking to be around 42 inches in lenght.

Re: Oilfield King Hauler
 

Truck looks awesome, love the paint. Cool looking rig.

Re: Oilfield King Hauler
 

They do all sorts of trailers,flats,tanks,pipe trailers everything in the oilfield has rollers on the nose of the trailer so it can be wiched onto the fifthwheel plate;)

Re: Oilfield King Hauler
 

That is a tough truck for sure.Cant wait to see the trailer.Great job on the build.

Re: Oilfield King Hauler
 

Thanks kaf343

Yea, there's quite a few different trailers ,skids used in the oilfield .

Thanks, plow jockey ,yea, the bed is really solid, all metal.
Will try and get some pics up soon of some progress of the trailer.
wieght is a issue to keep in mine ,not to much strain on the winch.

Re: Oilfield King Hauler
 

Well had a change of plans on the trailer build ,wanted something to haul my models more than a frac tank ,have a start on a drop deck/dovetail.Will get some more pics up soon . Still have a long way to go on it,the floor/decking will cover up all the bolts

Re: Oilfield King Hauler
 

Looks good so far.Is the trailer going to have a suspension?Good job on the build.

Re: Oilfield King Hauler
 

Thanks plow jockey ,not at the moment ,have an idea on a set of springs though.

Re: Oilfield King Hauler
 

Took me awhile to find this thread ,lol !! Not much of a update ,made a video of winching up the trailer ..kinda hard to hold the camera,transmitter at the same time ,sorry for the shakey camera
