mount a nice winch on there, and it'll be no problem. i'd love to have a trailer about like that. much better for moving stuff that's not on wheels

Might be a bit on the tall side but those are good for hauling huge items (no fenders to hit).

how heavy are the axles? trailer brakes?
looks like its in great shape.
hope you got a decent truck to deal with the high center of gravity the trailer/rig combo will have. I see the corner of a full size something there.

I see the corner of a full size something there. Wheels look like his other trailer, which is huge. Does your registration list a weight? My first thought was to drop it and add a beavertail, but maybe you have more uses for it. The winch might end up being a pain trying to load alone, and may not hold a Jeeps weight. Guess you'll find out. |

it has brakes,
3200kg registered weight(licensed for 3200kg)? only has 3500lb axles, so 7000gvrw is the way i understand it, I ll consider replacing with bigger axles if a deal reveals itself.
its not just a hauler its also a dumpster for construction at least thats what it replaced.
I only have a 1/2 ton right now working on a 1 ton, again just waitin for the right deal to show up.
I will have a winch mounted eventually more a for a helper.
I haul trailers every day this is just a new one to me, although I have limited car heavy equipment hauling experience,I handle some heavy loads ie. 3500 sqft of roofing debris.
the one in the back ground is my mobile workshop...everything you should need to build a house in there from the concrete up.

My trailer is registered for the weight of the trailer. If your trailer weighs 3200 kg (7040 lbs) that gives you only 500 lbs of carrying capacity. Not much of a deal. Check it out...
The high COG would freak me out.

trailer weighs in at 1300lbs checked today on local DOT scale but that is estimating my truck weight which previously was about 6000lbs

you have 7000lb that she can carry. Subtracting the 1300 for the trailer you have 5700 for the load. Awesome. Just be careful with the high COG
