Tail Lights:
We have dual tail/brake lights that are mounted
high on the body for improved visibility in dirty
or muddy conditions. Dual lights are also required
for licensing for highway use
Tires: We
us 4-ply side walls for tougher tires. They are
also low profile/wide bias tires for better stability
when cornering, steering on steep side slopes, or
driving up and down deep moguls.Wheels can be upgraded
to DOT approved type for highway licensing.
Lid Shocks:
Gas shocks are mounted to the inside so they
are protected form dirt, mud and other outside elements
Tongue: We
use a 2 point tongue attachment at the front and
the center of the frame. This helps to distribute
load stress so it's not all on the front
Axles: Axle
weights can be misleading. Of the 300 lb trailer
weight, only 170 lbs is sprung weight on the axles.
The other 130 lbs is unsprung weight which does
not affect load ratings. Therefore, we chose to
use 500# torsion axles due to its smoother ride
than the larger rated ones. This still allows for
loads in excess of 600 lbs. On our 8 day trip our
load, with fuel, was close to 700 lbs and there
was no sag to the tires. For those who think their
loads will be rather large, we do offer a 1000 lb
axle.
Accessories:
We designed this trailer for camping and hunting
so the sink, shelving and extra fuel saddles are
important features to make your outdoor adventure
more enjoyable. On our 8-day trip we were able to
travel for days without having to find a town for
fuel. The sink is great for having fresh water available
that does not have to be boiled for safety; and
the shelves work perfect for prepping food, cleaning
fish, etc.
