Trailer design, help needed

[Onajourney]

I just finished my off road frame. My first suggestion would be make it at least 9'. That extra 1' makes a huge difference in the galley. Second, I did not get all worked up about the tongue angles. I just laid one on the frame, adjusted it where it looked right, made at least 3 connection points, and marked it. Then cut two. Worked great.
I put 35' tires on so is just a bit heavy at 570 lbs with 25" clearance. That will settle after the build.

Nothing against Tony's design, as it uses the center tongue member to attach a straight tongue coupler; just saying if you plan to use the standard A-frame style coupler with just the two outer members, they are set at 50 degrees included (25/65 each side).

I Have Two trailers using a standard off the local shelf 50 deg coupler style,
I have seen these used on overloaded dump trailers

I am also planning a trailer rolled 20 deg R instead of angled sides and top Foamie & Light

Great design, I'm hoping to be a bit lighter but i doubt it lol. Looks a lot like what I am thinking of. What are you using for axels?

Not sure if I will be using the A-frame style as I plan on using the off road articulating hitch, but also may make part of it removable. Just thinking ahead.

PTulli- I can't exceed 2000lb gross weight being my TV is a Jeep JK. I was going to use 2000lb Flexrides but there was a 10 week lead. I got a pair of 2000 lb Rigid Hitch Torsion axels on Amazon cheap and quick. Nearly the same as the Flexrides. There a bit of a PITA to mount but they worked out.

All 2 dr JK's or just 4 cyl?

V6 Unlimited (4 dr) is 3500 lbs. My old straight 6 TJ 2 dr was 3000 lbs.

One of the cheap brands from amazon used to be made by dexter. I built a frame for someone on the cheap and ordered the stub torsion axles from amazon, came labeled with dexter labels.

I am in a 2dr jk as well. I will definitely have to check those out, thanks!
