Several things to note from the trailer's product manual:
- The bed appears to be 95" long by 57-1/2" wide - so no cutting is required to overhang the sides over the frame.
- The side rails are in one piece - so no sacrificing a cross member to join them together.
- The leaf spring has separate front and back brackets that are bolted to the frame - moving the axle position will be child's play.
- The illustration shows 5 lug nuts - so it may be easy to change wheels for those guys whose macho factor can't take being seen with 12" wheels
