I am starting my first TD Build. I purchased my 4X8 Harbor Freight trailer, the 1720b Super Duty model. I also purchased the build Plans from Kuffel Creek. I am not building that exact version, but using it as a guide. My question is this. In the Kuffel Creek plans they suggest a few trailer mods. One is to use the center cross members on the side rails , and add a piece of douglas fir as the center cross member. The other mod is to move the axil back towards the rear for proper tongue weight.
I am concerned about the cross member mod. but would love some input if anyone has any experience on this.
Thanks
Craig
