Alllll Aboard...Chhooo Chooooo


Only the second time in my life I have drivin onto a trailer...yup I kinda got crooked:

I was over too far, diddn't double check before I drove up onto it, the fender tabs that keep it snug to the frame kinda bent a bit when the front end and a small swamper chirp (not use to that FI454 yet ) force there way thru No worries I can fix it

Two 5200klbs axels both with brakes
Spare Tire w/ carrier(not mounted yet)
Self charging brake away kit
7K drop leg jack mounted to the deck not the tongue
6" channet tongue and frame
3" Channel crossmembers on 16" Centers
Slide in ramps (side)
2x4 stake pockets
rear rubrail
83" deck
Removable heavy duty fenders
2' dove tail, 18' total length
2 5/16 Bulldog hitch/coupler
4 Drings (not installed cuz I wanted to custom place them myself)
resessed lights

Nice trailer! Wanna trade?

16x7.5 tells you the rated size. 7.5 is the side wall height in inches, and of course, 16 is the rim. So, the rated hight is roughly 31" (16 + 7.5 + 7.5 = 31).
