PJ trailer modification, any problems?

   / PJ trailer modification, any problems? #11  
None of the four PJ trailers I have has had any issues with the powder coat, so maybe this is more of an eastern thing?

You can buy a suitable trailer ready to go.

Example:


There are also single axle trailers with 5200 lb axles, probably just under your needs, around 3500 lb capacity.


I was looking at them for a crew cab side by side.

Good luck finding the right fit!

I too have a hoe about the same weight as yours, IHI 15NX and would never even think of hauling it on a single axle trailer. Lose a tire and maybe lose the hoe. If need be hire a welder to build a heavy frame yet smaller trailer. I have a 16 foot, 10.000 lb trailer and the only part i hate is the width. The thing could be 2 or 3 ft narrower
