I will start off this thread with pics of the trailer I bought at a local auction for hauling my Bobcat.... subsequently took it on a 2500 mile road trip to Reno, Nevada to get a backhoe attachment for my Skid Steer.

I made the trip in 100HP setting with the exception of a couple of hills on the way back that I had to switch to 60HP due to the EGT temps. was 75-80mph the whole trip except construction zones. truck drove like the trailer was not even there:D

Here's mine. It's a 32' Keystone Cougar family camper. With the bike rack and the hitch in the front, it's about 37' total length. Queen bed in front, 4 bunk beds in the back used for three kids, and a toy shelf. Weighs about 9600 lbs loaded. We take it out once or twice a month in the summer, and once every month or two the rest of the year.

I have not towed it since I switched to PHP, but I used to tow with another chip's 40Tow setting, and still had to watch EGT. I look forward to my first tow with the PHP chip in a couple of weeks.

I like your Deuce and a half, I keep getting tempted to buy one but other things seem to pop up for me to spend my money on:doh:
Got the spring perches to do the spring over on my trailer today also got a great deal on a Warn 8274 winch for $200 today so will probably mount that on the trailer too. Need to find a old working snow plow pump. I want to add a power up and down to the trailer tilt assembly. Have a remote control setup to run both the winch and pump setup if i can find one

Here is what I usually tow. It is a 8 x 19' Ice Castle fish house that I use for ice fishing and as a hunting shack up here in MN. This picture is of the Fish House and my truck on Lake Mille Lacs. In this photo, the wheels are cranked up to lower the floor down to the ice.

Thats a neat set up. I like that you can pull it somewhere then just set it down. Haha, the terrain just looks really weird to me because down here in central texas, I've only seen real snow twice and the only ice we get is the dangerous black ice. :hehe: But I do like that I dont need to carve through a layer of ice whenever I want to go fishing.

How do you go by explaining that to the insurance company. :giggle: Well ya know I was out for a little drive and everything was all white. I was just following some tracks and then all of a sudden the road just went out from under me. I was like dang its getting a little cold now. :hehe:

Chuck,
You don't explain it to the insurance adjuster because they use the "Act of God" clause and weasel their way out of it!
Those vehicles are also probably getting fined by the state and the EPA to the tune of $2500-$7000 a day for polluting the water plus the recovery fee!
I used to use an old honda 250 three wheeler to pull my stuff out on the ice. Had a nice portable two man "clam". Its a good time going ice fishing. But my hands couldn't take it anymore, too cold some days.
Seen plenty of vehicles go through over the years. The worse thing you can do is floor it. Just gradually increase the throttle and more than likely you will make it not unless you get into a "big" thin spot.

:D Good catch!

I only drive pull that out on the ice when there is at least 14" of ice. I have seen a few guys go through with thier trucks and cars on less ice. You have to remember that no ice is ever completely safe. My insurance would cover me if I dropped my precious F150 in the drink, but I don't want to have to go through that!

Ye Gods! Those were great pictures, One Tom! I don't think there's any way I'd trust the ice to hold my truck - ever! Dang, that looks like cold work getting those things out of the drink. :eek: Not a job I'd want, no matter how bad the economy.

I think some of the recovery fees start at about $1000 and go up from there!

I decided that this trailer is gonna be a bit on the small side for hauling my bobcat with the backhoe attached..
http://dygytalworld.ehost-services139.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=65&pictureid=512

So today I got a new trailer at auction.. will pick it up tmw. Had a scary experience with the trailer above when i tried hauling a couple pallets of landscape bricks... the pallet broke and dumped the bricks sending the truck and trailer into a fishtail as i tried to stop the truck:eek:... So I learned from my mistake and do not want to repeat that experience esp as I had my kids in the truck with me... so this is gonna be the replacement

I was thinking that the single axle trailer was a little under-kill for a skid steer. You'll have a lot better luck with the triple.

Except for the mud and snow... If I had a truck to pull a gooseneck I would have converted it to a gooseneck .
First time using the Warn 8274. I love how fast the no load speed is... I will probably add a wireless winch control to it as well

It depends on which state you live in and sometimes on what type of drivers license you have. That being said I also thought trying to pull a double in anything but perfect conditions with a 1/2 ton truck seems a bit of a gamble to me too:shrug: I think its time for him to buy a 1 ton diesel Heh. Pulling doubles I would want a dually too.
In CO and many other states pulling triples by semi's is allowed but watching those triples wander all over the place in cross winds sure makes me glad I am not driving that truck

I know it is with a fifth wheel. I have brakes on the trailer and the boat.

I only pull it to a couple local lakes. The furest being about 40 miles. If we go to further lakes, I'm only pulling camper. Handles better than you would think. ALOT is in the actual setup of hitches. I have seen many 1ton trucks that can't go over 50 mph because the boat gets to whippin.

I changed out the POS Pintle hitch to a 2 5/16 ball hitch and removed the extra channel that was mounted on the ramps and dovetail.. which removed about 300lbs of metal from the rear of the trailer... It tows great now.... I have developed a strong dislike for pintle trailers on light duty vehicles......
Also added a wireless remote control setup for the winch...

What do you have for brakes on this trailer?? I have 2 32' goosenecks flat beds, and a 36' aluminum stock trailer, with 10k HD dexter axels and I put electric over Kodiak hydralic disc brakes on them what a huge difference you don't even need truck brakes and they work just as well in reverse. You ever back down a gravel drive way with 10 tons of hay on??

It cost $550 (www.kodiaktrailer.com) per axel, $350 (Redneck trailers) for the elec/hydo unit, and like $75 (NAPA)for brake lines, hoses and fitings.

They make an 11" and a 13" style rotor, also they use a 1 ton early 90's GM caliper so you can buy the brakes at any auto parts store. I run the 11" rotors on the trailer with the 16" rims and the 13" rotors on the with 19.5" rims.

Thats another thing I bought a bunch on 8 lug 19.5" GM P-chassie rims, had a machine shop cut the pilot hole to 4.75" and I use 225/75/19.5 14 ply tires and they where like iron. I buy them wholesale for $135 each. I must have 150,000 miles on my 19.5" trailer tires and they still have half tread, I think you can get 3-4 time more life out of the 19.5 then the 10 ply 235/85/16, also they are rated for 3600# dual as opposed to 2778# on the 16's.

As soon as I come up with more 19.5" rims I will out fit my other trailers with this set up, the also work well on pre '97 ford dullies.

happy hay hauling,
Jay

yea i had Elec/hydro put on when i bought the trailer... after some hair raising experiences with the 5er RV, i decided to spend the extra money... its definitely a nice thing to have especially since i like the trailer to do most of the braking anyway...

yea the heavier tires would be nice.... i need to upsize and when i do, i might order something with 19.5's....

I dont remember the tongue weight but we were able to pull a jayco 26bh with an '04 expedition about 30 miles in hilly terrain. Had a 4.6 under the hood but no electric brake module in that vehicle. Pulling was easier than we thought it would be. The expy isn't the greatest to pull anything because of the soft suspension but a regular truck shouldn't have that problem.

How well does your little F-150 tow that trailer? seems kinda big to me for a half-ton. how much does it weigh? just wondering, thanks for indulging my curiosity! :D

DWR
Sun, November 21st, 2010, 10:50 PM
It handles the trailer pretty well. Doesn't weigh as much as you might think. The trailer is 5,800# empty and I probably tow it most of the time around 7,000#. The truck doesn't have any problems pullin the trailer but I am definitely maxing the GV of the truck because of the pin weight. Although it only takes about 15-20 lbs in the air helpers to level the truck. We usually take it on 4-6 trips per year, most of those are within 3 hours away. This years trip to Maine was about 15 hours = went through a lot of gas!

I can haul 3 full size quads + 1 in back of the truck or a 14' aluminum boat depending on where we're headed. We've had a lot of fun with it.

Don't remember exactly, I think the shipping weight was around 14,000 lbs for the tractor, but it had a full set of weights on the front so I would guess around 16,000 then another 6500 for the trailer. I hauled a load of big square bales for a guy one time and he figured we had 21,000 just in hay. - and my tranny still made it to 320,000 before it gave up.

As if it was secret....

Those pictures you took look surprisingly similar to the last 5 seasons of Ice Road Truckers....but without all of the drama.

This will probably be the biggest trailer y'all have ever seen. :hehe:

This is my buddies trailer I used to haul quite a bit until he moved down to Arizona. Was just testing my newly installed brake controller, everyone always gives me crap that it isn't hooked up in the pic.

I think if I were to buy a new trailer it would probably be a decent sized dump trailer, seems I'm always hauling gravel or mulch for people and shoveling it out sucks...

Thanks cj5 , actually this a toy hauler with the smaller garage area, ramp is access to the garage. It's big enough for a couple of motorcycles or a Quad ATV but we use it for the dogs, keeps most of the hair, mud etc out of the living quarters especially if we are at a hunt test or outdoor shows.
