Talking Wilison Tri-Axle Siliver Line Bull Rack Build.

Hey guys here is my build on my Tri axle cattle trailer.

Here is how I looked the day i got it.





Ok I got all the angle bolted to the sides so i made my pan for the trailer out of 1 piece of alum that I broke on my break the pan is .80 Alum.





Next I used frame rails from a Tamiya box trailer and I got them mounted in next then the axles and hardwear and a proto type lift axle for the rear axle

Inside bolt shot

Next I went to work mounting the nose of the trailer. I use 3/4 wide strips to mount the nose flush to the side pannels using 5/16 stainless screws and lock nuts.

Ok so here are some final picks of my cattle trailer. Here is a pick of the rear end you can see how I added derlin to the ICC to look like bumper pads. and I also added the roll up door and yes it does work.

Door



Right Side of door






Shot of the roof.


Here are some picks of the ribbing on the side of the trailer and the walk rails and ladders and grab bars on the side you can also see the rub rail with the DOT tape on it.





Here is a 1:1 pick for ref


Here is a pick of the nose and the porch light with the cattle company name on it.

Hey thanks much Gary.. I will be doing all the lights this winter on it.

Here is another update. I got my new IHbuilder Alcoa rims on the trailer today. Also all the part that Stylin and Profilin polished for me I also got my decals back on the trailer and I added the chrome Cow Bell I got from Exhood.
