Trailer Project

My 7’x12’ trailer I built 39 years ago. Thought I would spiffy it up a little.

Any issues with tongue weight with that axle positioning?

No issues. I’ve had 5 four wheelers on before and it was fine.

OK, I'm racking my brains trying to picture FIVE 4 wheelers on it !!
Axles are correctly placed, centered on the 12' length of trailer. You don't include the tongue length in the 'math'.

We’ll, I’ve been hauling things on it for 39 years. my Ranger side by side, my Kubota BX24 (without the backhoe and loader bucket), 4 wheelers, etc. and haven’t had any problems.
I’m not a rocket scientist, but it has a lot to do with how you position your load.
