We started with a harbor freight 1720 Lb. Capacity Super Duty 48" x 96" Utility Trailer with 12" Five Lug Wheels and Tires.
I never seen such instructions in all my life,,lol Iknew we were in trouble when it said see the part list on page 26 and you go to page 26 and tire pressure stuff..no part list at all on page 26!!....what a Joke!
Thanks mike and Karry for the free plans and also thanks mike and everyone for this wonderfull and very help site!
