I had to paint and assemble the wheels to use with putting the suspension on the frame. Here’s my progress.

looks like the wheels to the far left are bigger than the others. going together nicely!!

Camera angle... lol!!!

Thanks Al. The tires and rims are all the same size it’s my camera angle that makes them look bigger.

Joe I was waiting to see what thought about my camera angle. Lol. More progress on the trailer today. Worked on the load deck.

I’ve been making some progress on the trailer. I now have the goose neck, load deck and rear suspension built and have a test mock up. The truck and trailer comes in at 3’ long. Load tested the goose neck connection with the mixer that will be on it. Stace’s trailer kit is awesome it’s going together really nice.

WOW!! very nice.. very big!! i wonder how many of Mikes minis will fit on there?

[mopar]

Thanks Al. You could probably get 6 of those mini’s on it lol. I finished the rear outriggers and made some ramps with double hinges from reference pictures on the internet.

That's it I'm done... I'm not building anymore of these...lol. it's looking great!!! Did my picture of mine with the ramps make you decide to add them? I've seen them both ways.

Thanks Stace I had decided to add the ramps some time ago lol.

I reached a point where I was ready to spray some primer on and the weather was good 👍. I now have the trailer rear suspension connected with the load deck.
