duellies sound good, I might have to check into that idea. I know I can't go bigger tires so you might have the plan,, Thanks.

 

Hi Hobbles
You could put a heavier axle under the trailer and put the wheels to the outside. I couldn't see if you had spindles on your axles. You can get pretty decent 4 bolt 10 inch rims and tires. I used the Kenda bear claw tires on my trailer and they are wide enough and stiff enough to keep my trailer from flipping unless I do something really wrong, which happens.
Take care Dave

 

Afternoon 600Grizzly
I thought bout a new axle and tires and changing other things but I got to draw the line somewhere. Money wise, I think I will use it till it falls apart then just get a BETTER one, with a wider wheel base.
I look at the bright side,, I know what NOT to buy next time.

Skinnykid, I have the Bush Buggy and it has been really good for my needs. We just finished cleaning up the leaves and hauling them up the hill with the trailer. We use it mainly for getting fresh cut firewood off a steep hill up in VT. It works great filled to the rails with wet beech, oak, birch, or maple. The beech I took down this year was crazy heavy and the trailer had no problem with it. Not cheap but a great trailer.

 

I just use the 10 cu ft dump trailer from my John Deere lawn tractor. Its not overly big but for jobs around the yard it works good. I picked it up for $160 cdn.

 

I just bought this Polaris Tandem Axle Steel Trailer I should get it this week. I'll let ya know how it holds up.

 

Looks nice. How much though? I looked at only one site thru that link and they wanted $749.99. Thats higher than the MSRP.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]
