I intend to make one similar one of these days & try a 6x4 tandem trk to pull it. I'm gonna go with a single axle front & tandem rear with a 16' box... and hope the trk can pull it off road.

JMO, you might try tandem - tandem with a 20' box.

trailer is looking great, I think you should take out the middle two axles, and make it standard quad trailer. like the ones you would see here on the island. there are lots up your way hauling to hazco everyday. I loaded two quads for up there today.

I've also used American model engineering supply, and they have brass and steel.

Jordy Great idea and I thought about that, but would make it more complicated to install steering axles.

Joe and Jason. I think I'll go with your suggestion tandem front and back, What I think I'll do is make the box a 20 footer but keep the full length trailer. I'll put the box centered on the trailer like a transfer, but have it dump at the back. Should be able to build a screw drive that will move it to the back and then dump. here's an idea, What do you think.

Sorry for the poor image. Hard to see with white background.
