Trailer

[Yoby]

I am looking into a trailer to haul a quad and a fish house. I have a 18ft tandem car trailer, but dont want to haul that around ice fishing.

This would also couple for hauling the lawn mower around to looking at something 6ft wide, but dont know how long is optimal.

Any suggestions, also if anyone has experience in the Fargo area with companys that sell them let me know. Try to get it at a reasonable price, but also looking for something fairly quick.

That looks pretty close to what I was looking at, but they also have one where it is only a rear load. Dont know if the side load is helpful... Use it much?

If you're going to buy a trailer anyway, I would look at an enclosed trailer with a ramp door. A bit more cash up front, but a whole lot more versatile and keeps your stuff from getting rock racked while being pulled. Hope you find what you're looking for.

Forgot to add, I'd look at 6 X 12 or bigger to fit both machine and house.

Actually I use the side ramp often. I have a Polaris 550 sportsman that loads nicely on the side. That side ramp also comes in handy should some bozo park too close behind your trailer as you can load/unload out the side. If I am ever trailering empty, I just fold the ramps down on the bed of trailer.

I'm in the same boat right now. I can't decide if i want to just go cheap and get a used two place snowmobile trailer or if i should get a nice trailer like you guys have.

Same boat as well. Been looking for an atv trailer for some time. Don't want to break the bank but then again, don't want junk. Everything leads me to buying all aluminum. Lighter, no rust worries like steal and no wood floor rot worries. Yet, more expensive.

I was also looking at this guy, but I'm not quite sure if its large enough.

have looked into the enclosed as well. Man would it be nice, but it looks like your investment is 2x.

I had a good farm buddy sell me one of his, it is 7X16 tandem. It rides real nice with the tandem axle. It was 20 years old so I picked it up pretty cheap, I then put tires on it, as the old ones were shot. Then the week before Christmas this year I decided to have the bearings repacked or replaced at a cost of $80 a tire. It turned out one of the bearings was run dry and actually got so hot that it welded to the hub, and created a situation involving replacing the entire axle, entire cost was $945.00.

This bargain 20 year old trailer cost me with repairs more than had I picked up a new one same make and model.
With the purchase price of the trailer, the tires, and the repair work I have $1900 into this bargain.

I would recommend just picking up a new one, and leave the farm ones on the farm...;:;banghead

If you buy a trailer with the mesh ramp in the back like shown in the first picture that back ramp will act like a sail! My brother in law has that exact one and my tandem axle car hauler pulls way easier! It is a nice trailer but we pull it with the ramp laid flat on the trailer bed if at all possible.

Keep an eye on Craigslist. I was in the same situation this summer and found a 7x12 aluminum with torsion axe for $1700. It was only a couple years old and like new condition.

I always thought these looked like a pretty good set up. More expensive but should last longer. P&J makes some really nice trailers.

I have an 8x14 tandem axle v-front drive on-drive off 3 place snowmobile trailer. It's long enough to drive an ATV/Snomobile on with a tub/sled style house hooked to the back of it. Get where you're going, put the ramp on the front, drive off, heading home, put the ramp on the back, drive on. Wide enough to put 2 rigs on that way.

I use a 8.5 X 10 sled trailer. Works great for everything. House on one side sled or quad on the other. Tilt bed is easy to use.
