    So are you keeping it now? I don't think its too big. Most of the decent logging trailers for atv's are about that size. The Woodland Mills Multi-lander and T-rex trailers, the DR Versa trailer, the Bosski trailer, etc.

    You can always load it only partway.

    The tailgate is almost finished. Put a few more pieces in to stiffen up the front

    Got the hinges about figured out and starting to tack them on.
    The tailgate will hinge left or right. And down like a regular tailgate.

    This trailer deserves a new side X side. Do the right thing! Amazing job!

    It was .
    That was the day we picked it up.

    I told the dealer...
    If it fits, it ships.

    We picked it up in the Rock and Roll Tour Bus. (In background, top pic)
    Had 3/4" to spare...:dex:
