Nice work Travis. You've defiantly got those screw drives down. Will it lift your loader or dozer? It'll be the perfect trailer for the forklifts.

I would guess it would lift the dozer and the loader.

That's pretty slick Travis, see those at work all the time, never thought of making one. Nice job!

Thanks Kent, I was hoping to have it done for Indy but it just did not make it.

Travis, that is just awesome. Can't say I've seen the sliding axle trailer in person and did not quite understand what was happening. But I watched the TrailKing corporate video and saw what it could do. Great job! Might you add a winch?

SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: My modified Carson trailer, because stock was just not good enough.
 

Thanks guys, it was Benny's idea and he asked if I thought I could do it so I just had to try. It took awhile to find the right trailer at the right price but it worked out in the end. The screw drive is real similar to the one in my dump trucks but it was easier since the puck just had to move the wheels.

If it ain't cool enough for ya, just Biddle with it till it is.

Re: My modified Carson trailer, because stock was just not good enough.
 

Awesome work! I like the look and stance.

Re: My modified Carson trailer, because stock was just not good enough.
 

Nice job Travis ,
I was wondering when somebody would do a trailer like that

Re: My modified Carson trailer, because stock was just not good enough.
 

Travis I love the wood deck. I always wondered what happened to that truck.

I've got the truck as of last weekend and I'm not sure where the trailer went. Kind of mulling over what I'm going to do with the truck but it'll get something different done to it eventually.

Re: My modified Carson trailer, because stock was just not good enough.
 

Just curious, does it still have the single speed R2 and 6X6?

Re: My modified Carson trailer, because stock was just not good enough.
 

No its not a 6x6 any more and I believe its the standard 3 spd. Travis made me a deal I couldn't refuse and I'm kinda going away from shiftable transmissions because when it comes down to it, for running at shows they are kind of worthless. So I didn't pay attention to what it really has in it for a tranny.

Re: My modified Carson trailer, because stock was just not good enough.
 

I still have the trailer untill the right person comes along.
