281 viewsForward mount only works on late models. Needs to be re-designed to fit early and late models. I put some weight-lifting plates on it and it held 20 pounds very well, however, it became a little too bouncy for my tastes while driving. I removed 10 pounds and ran errands and the parcel tray held up just fine so I would rate it at 10 pounds maximum carrying weight.Apr 16, 2007

273 viewsClose-up of the leg. The upper bolt screws into a nut I welded to the back of the C-channel. The bottom bolt passes all the way through and is loosely secured with a nut -- not really necessary, just used to keep the leg from wobbling forward and backward. Next time I think I'll make the legs flare out from the trailer some more to provide better stability as well as make them shorter so more weight is on them and not the rear tire. If I'm not careful I can put the trailer on one of its rear corners.Apr 04, 2007

281 viewsHere I removed the upper wood box. I took two of the C-channel side braces that were used to hold the wood panels and with a little drilling, cutting, welding, and two polyurethane castor wheels, made them into removable legs that can be used to support and move the trailer for the time being.Apr 04, 2007

350 viewsThe single-wheel. For those not familiar with this type of trailer, the wheel assembly is on a pivot, just like the front wheel on a shopping cart i.e. a castor (wheel). Since I backed the trailer in the driveway the castor is further under the trailer. When I pull the trailer forward, the castor will pivot 180-degrees, thus placing the castor further rearward.
