Looking to buy a smaller (6x12 or 7x12-14) trailer. Will only use it for hunting out west. The back of my truck is not big enough anymore plus we can keep coolers in it when in bear country.

Looking for dealers or maunfactures, thanks

I've owned several, and all I can say is buy a brand name reputable maker... don't go cheap and expect it to hold up. I have a 14 foot pace tandem axle, pulls great, stable, never an issue.... wouldn't take for it right now;

I was thinking about going this direction, biggest thing my research brought me to was save up to upgrade axles. If you can start with torsion first that is a huge a plus. If you are going to do a Swap out go straight the top with something like https://timbren.com/n-148-off-road-trailer-axle-and-suspension-guide.html


Donate to TX Youth hunting program.... better to donate then to waste it in taxes

I used Trophy Motors out of New Braunfels, they sell the Cargo Craft enclosed trailers. I was able to spec mine out how I wanted it. They had a ton of options such as ac wiring. I had them fully box the frame, add a 2" receiver and do another few things.
