Nice looking rig.
Is there another cross rail in the front half? Floor might be a bit bouncy without it...Too many projects, so little time, even less money!Are you a registered member?

If you don't mind me asking, what did the springs, axle setup cost you?
I've got the style side of a ute I want to make into a trailer and this is what I'm looking for

hows it going ,, yeh springs, 1250 kg axle , hubs assembly , shackles $ 330 from trailer parts and the total cost for steel was i think $ 500 ish ,, thats the whole trailer so if your looking at just the chassis pics you could make that for easy $ 200 as thats all you need if just plonking on a ute body

That's a good looking unit freaky!
To me it's a bit small, but I guess that depends on the towing vehicle and the amout of stuphph you want to carry.

It is looking good!
How does it handle off road? Just bounce over everything?
