    some pic of my trailer

    This my new trailer that I'm building. I plan on putting my welder and tools
    on it, and hopefully get some work. (I'm not finished yet.)I'll be posting more pics later on.

      Tongue weight

      Looks like you'll be proportionally tongue heavy with the wheels so far back, unless you are planning to put a lot of weight behind the axle. Try to keep the tongue weight around 10% of total loaded trailer weight. It will be easier on the tires, trailer, equipment, and for the vehicle pulling it.

      80% of failures are from 20% of causes
