Just made it home. Long day started at 4AM. Looks good and towed spectacular. Now the fun part. Cutting holes in a brand new trailer.

Also, I was very pleased to see the 5,200lbs GVWR and that I have 3,350lbs (per factory sticker) for conversion and any payload. I am thinking I won't even come close... so plenty of margin. I believe upgrading the axle to 5,200lbs with electric brakes , additional floor joists, and triple tube tongue is the #1 best upgrade I could have done. Not really much more at time of build.

Now I will not be constrained by weight, although I do not plan to build heavy. Quick math says the trailer is 1,850 lbs as built.

It is on the factory sticker and the MSO, so legit!

All, I am going to start a new build thread on this since this became more of a blog as I was waiting for the cargo trailer. I will circle back and link this to it.


Here is the link...
