watahyahknow · 11-02-2009, 02:15 PM

MUD MUD OOOOOHW GLORIOUS MUUUUUD it would be awesome to be able to do that myself ,,,,,,, maibe in the future
an idea might be to make some slide out sides on the trailer for this truck just 4 big U's you can pull out and lock or build two regtangles the same with as the truck with the big wheels mounted made from boxtubing you can bolt down on top of the trailerbed and drive the wheels of the truck intoo

seen some nice cars on those pics too

tallhoedude · 11-02-2009, 02:37 PM

Thanks,it was a borrowed trailer,im lookin at a gooseneck that ill make something for so i feel a little safer when towing.

And nice shoes they are!!

watahyahknow · 11-02-2009, 03:07 PM

the truck was sitting pretty high even with the transport wheels under there
if youre making youre own trailer you might allso want to think about making the places the tires sit a lot lower than the actual bed mabe drop the tires partly through the bed .
where i live i wouldnt be able to clear overpasses (the states have overpasses that are a lot higher though )

Big J · 11-03-2009, 04:41 PM

Looks great Andy. Glad ya got to finally go out and play with it. I wonder if it would've floated with the other fat tires you had on there...

tallhoedude · 11-04-2009, 09:58 AM

im working on gettin my floaters ready,ive still got a set...

tallhoedude · 11-06-2009, 08:53 AM
