ETS Trailer Build – Rolling Low

After spending a heap of time on the hilux lately i started to plan on getting it rolling, that couldn’t happen unless i got the trailer rolling and out of the way so i could swing the jig onto the hoist.

After a few late nights of solid MIG welding i started getting pretty excited with this build, the more i added the better it started to look, the suspension worked really well with the pan hard bar arrangement.

The wheels are used purely just to roll it out of the shed but i made the axles 2180mm long so that i could use 17×8.5 +15 rims

Now its rolling its time to finish everything off.

  8. hey mate just wondering how you did the 2 pan hard rods?
    does the trailer move to the side when you raise and lower it?
