Trailer Idea. Thoughts? Interest?

[cruzinz28]

I have been looking at the parts left over from my bobber and came up with this rough idae from some pictures I had on file.

Trailer:

- M105 trailer tongue welded to the frame of original deuce bed

- M105 Trailer Springs mounted under original deuce bed

- dual wheels mounted on each side

What are your thoughts or interests in the idea???

Yea, you get a longer bed than an M105 but the load is reduced by a bit since the deuce bed weighs more.

Make sure you have a parking brake and gear on the front. That will be heavy! I like it.

I like it and I have considered something similar except with 2 M105 axles. The greatest part of such a project is having the deuce bed allows you to hanf troop seats and a cargo cover on it to keep your stuff dry.

If anyone is interested in these parts to build a trailer like this... by all means send a PM. this stuf is just laying around outside my shop in the weather

Probably gonna need a frame under it. The wheels will hit the bed if you hang the springs directly off of it.

just curious what do you think one would cost if you put it together?

 

[steelandcanvas]

Good idea! Kind of a usuable recycle of the parts.

I would be honest and say that the bed will need a full length frame if you want to have it not twist and bend like a pretzel under load or on uneven terrain. The height would be low also if you do not put a frame underneath it.

Just my two cents
