I forgot to add that I added diagonals to the frame connecting the tongue to the front cross member. These are made from 2 inch angle iron and will be supports for a diamond plate tongue box. I also added small diagonal pieces in the front corners to attach a couple of Atwood stabilizers like what we put on the rear. I don't like how loose the front jack is. The stabilizers arrived yesterday so I'll scrape off some paint this weekend and weld them on. A little touch on the paint and we're good to go.
I hooked up the hitch to the Mini and set the trailer on it. Since the hitch is behind the license plate, I made a spring loaded bracket that swings the plate up when we tow. I found the draw bar needs to be a couple inches longer so the plate doesn't ride on the hitch but sits on the draw bar instead. Another thing to buy from E trailer.
