The trailer that me and my mates use for occasionally shifting junk around has finally rusted away. We are planning on building a new one using the axles off the old one. We are planning to construct the chassis in basically the same way as the old but using 2" square box section (only because we've got loads of the stuff). Its a twin axle flat bed trailer aprox 6 foot by 11 foot. I was wondering if anyone was any advice or tips on the design/construction of such a trailer. The old one had the axles across the centre but I've seen other similar trailers with the axles closer to the back, what differences will the position of the axles make?
Thanks Liam
