I had a single axel midsota but it was useless off road with a load on it would sink in soft ground. It ended up being a bit bigger than I wanted for in the woods 5x10'. I am currently looking at a midsota mini dump dual axel version, it has to be special ordered. It is around 2000-2300 depending on extra options like light kit and on board battery to run the hydro. This is a pic of the single axel version. 293_gallery.jpg and of the dual axel 1426_gallery.jpg the only difference between the 2 is the second axel so instead of 1 2k axel it has 2 there is more info at this link Mini Dump - ATV, Lawn & Garden Trailers

Anyhow I am just trying my hardest to find other manufacturers that sell something similar, and I am coming up blank. I figure with this one if I use the stake holes to add on 2 foot wood sides I could haul half a cord of wood with it and in most cases dump the whole cord unless it is a heavier type wood. It's primary use however will be doing dirt work around my acreage I just figured it would be nice to make a little money with it on the side selling wood.

Anyhow this is a plea for help if any of you know of any other manufacturers that make a similar trailer with dual axels I hate to be stuck with just 1 option. I have though about building my own but I doubt I could do it for cheaper although it would be to my specs "It would be nice to have a 4x8' box so I could also haul lumber with it." But I have moved away from the build it myself option because of worries about getting the center of gravity right so that it towes properly.

There are a bunch of off road only trailers out there in similar sizes just have not been able to find other road legal ones.

Australian companies make small off road trailers

You might try to find a modern day version of the jeep trailer (m100)

put some 31x12.50 tires on it and it should float just as well as anything you would hope to move it with.

The m100 is only rated for a 500lb load, I want at least 1800lb dump capacity to move dirt.

Another reason I wan't dual axel is just because it is safer on the highway. I have been in 1 trailer related rollover accident I do not want to be in another.
