Any Tractor Supply Company (TSC) can special order the trailer. They can also order a 5’ x 8’ and 5’ by 10’
It just costs more in the larger sizes. You can also order it directly from Cary-On-trailer Company. They have a web site the trailer is not listed on the site but if you call them they will give you the TSC order number. It's called a no floor trailer.

Thanks for the help guys. :applause: I called Carry-On and Dawn stated they didn't make the 5x10 no-floor for TS. Yes Tom, I have taken your suggestion and will go with a 5' wide. I also decided to change the length to 10' so I may have that extra leg room w/o reducing the kitchen area. I sat down with a friend at his custom build trailer shop and authorized a frame to be built (58x115 floor). The price while high is not much more than a 5' RedTrailer with shipping added. It's being built with 1 1/2 sq tubing, 13" wheels, jack stand, rear receiver (bike rack) and levelers on the rear. 10 days and no turning back pic's to follow.

GO MAN, GO!!!

(You sure you want the rear receiver and levelers now? Depending on how they mount them, couldn't they interfere with your construction?)

Zapj....you're going to like the longer length....I had an 8 footer back in 1980....hardly used it as it was just way too small...I built a 10'....Doug

How did Doug become a witch? (Brujo.) Figured I would post this in case anyone didn't know what that word meant.
