Rebuilding Kubota towing trailers and car haulers

[bearskinner]

Lots of talk about building trailers, axles, brakes, etc.
with a little time and a stack of metal and wood, you can turn a $400. Beater into a nice looking, great towing usable trailer. I cleaned this up and added the removable sides for a buddy. I was pushing for Kubota Orange, but his wife wanted bright red. It still looks ok

Not a problem, bring it out in spring. We can cut off the welded on tab, stain a pile of new wood, blast it and shoot some paint on it out in my wood lot, repack all the bearings, reinstall the new wood and touch up the welds. I converted them both to LED lights, so there super bright at night, virtually maintenance free. I built this one for myself, it was a freebie. Of course it didn’t look anywhere like this. I like load range E tires on them too.

I forgot how much I use that little trailer! It***8217;s great for mid sized toys, and Kubotas

And yes, Tractor porn is a wonderful thing! I love checking out everyone***8217;s ideas and projects, and possibly incorporating some of it into my projects. It keeps my mind occupied as I sit in the hospital waiting room, for results to my dad***8217;s tests

Ain't that the truth. Grandfather kept after me when I was younger to get a vehicle that could transport more then two people. Wanted to see me in a car instead of a truck. I followed his advise and traded my little ford ranger for a sport utility The following week I needed a truck for something and had to trade vehicles for a day with a friend of mine. Got rid of the sport utility a couple years later and have had only trucks for myself since.

Did mine a couple months ago. Re-pack, re-paint, re-wire, re-deck.
