    OFF ROAD TRAILER ATV / Disassemble trailer for ATV - Multifunctional trailer

    Looks like it would work well. I wouldn't want to carry anything too heavy on it because the way the trailer is set up with the axle being all the way in the back it would put way too much tongue weight on the machine carrying the trailer.

      with the tires all the way in the back would also make it harder to manuever, but easier to back up!! great idea thou!! just my two cents!

        I already have a 12ft lund and a 14 duck boat i would just need to buy the trailer or get a custom one built but for 800 bucks it might be hard to do it cheaper in aluminum.
        what kind of tonge wieght would be too much for and Argo ?

          I've tied my (something of a beater already) canoe with a tow strap to the ball hitch on my argo, and dragged it along behind. Most of the territory I go through is fairly wet, and my destination is a small lake where I use the canoe. Tried a little strap on canoe cart once but the wheels keep bogging in the mud, like an anchor.

            My thoughts, I'd at least like a set of floatation tires in duals or a tandem with duals, but that would depend on terrain.

            Would make a good bunk trailer for logs on right terrain if axle was in right spot.

            My new beer holder spilled some on the trails - in it's hair and down it's throat.
            Joe Camel never does that.

            Advice is free, it's the application that costs.
