So how about a Trailer Build?

A few months back I bought a 1986 Zieman double standup jet ski trailer cheap. The trailer came with some very interesting fabrication work and a plastic box. I like the size of the trailer but it needs some work.

Trailer needs to be able to carry:
  • Two 550 Jet Skis
  • Spare Tire
  • 10 Gallons of Fuel
  • Lastly a Box for misc. parts and pieces.

The trailer is a great foundation but needs a lot added and fixed. Let’s see where this goes. I will post pictures later the pictures I took today didn’t come out very good.

Re: So how about a Trailer Build?

This summer the plan is an all aluminum trailer to carry 2 motorcycles, my 550 and a pair of Stanley waterproof toolboxes thats light enough to tow with my class 1 hitch

Re: So how about a Trailer Build?

ya its an important consideration for me because the 4x8 utility trailer of my dads has been great to get my 2 finished and running bikes to and from school and now I have the ski to transport too. If I go all aluminum, I should be in good shape to pull all 3 vehicles off with extra cargo and keep it under 2000Lbs and 200Lbs tongue weight

Re: So how about a Trailer Build?

I need a trailer bad! I'll have to post up a picture of my ghetto setup. I may wait till high season (memorial day ish) and post my trailer. I would like to get $300 if I can from someone looking to get get there skis to the lake. Then I will turn around and get a brand name trailer with proper spacing and fuel can racks. I don't car some much about a box as much as I need a fuel can rack. However, both on the same trailer would be a bonus!!!

I also need to stay in the class 1 range as I tow two skis with a car.
