Yeah Chris it is just like my Trail King drop deck the only thing plastic on the trailer is the axle housing..

Nice looking drop deck. I am surprised at how close the tires are to hitting, does the 1:1 not have suspension?

They don't have a lot of travel do they.. The 1:1 trailers have big bags on them that allow them to haul a great deal but they do not have a lot of up travel but they have a pretty good amount of down travel.

Wow, this is cool Paul.....good to see someone building a JET! Great trailer, great manufacturer, and simple but tough design.

Used to work for the #1 seller of JET trailers (at least grain hoppers anyhow) in North America. The red T600 they had to haul their trailers around to the dealerships would roll into the yard about twice a week from Humboldt, IA.

Guys can have their Wilsons and Easts......product design on both sucks, especially from a service standpoint. No easy access to anything....airbags, thrust washers, shocks, air fittings.

Wow, anyway getting back to your project! Looks like a neat build to keep an eye on bud!
