Teardrops n Tiny Travel Trailers

eamarquardt wrote: I am also starting a teardrop and have used the same approach. Because I'm using rect. tube for the frame, it is not necessary to mill out the angle the spring hangers are welded to. I took a piece of flat stock and welded three nuts to it. It will slip inside the rect. tube from the end of the trailer and then I can drill holes and insert bolts through the angle, through the rect. tube rail, and into the strap nuts. Have all this fabricated now and can send pictures. Will be able to finish the trailer, load it up to towing config. and get the exact balance I want, piece of cake.
