I have one of those trailers.

Yea I didn't realize they were the larger sizes. More of a Deuce and half trailer.

Got the hitch welded in today. Went with this setup so I can shorten the length on the trail and have it longer for on road manners.

I like the way you tied in the A frame to the hitch receiver, looks like it is a stronger way than I did mine... good work

Thank you! It was a bit of a pain cutting it in , but I think I looks pretty clean. I like the idea of it being fully in cased in the frame rails. Probably over kill.

That’s how you get it done! With out deadlines, things tend to drag out
