@ittigger Still 2500lbs of gear and 1000 lb trailer would push a single axle.
I generally agree. You might want to load it up and weigh it - no sense paying for something you don't need. Measure twice, cut once.

Man, I wish it was that easy, I measure once, cut 30 timesI generally agree. You might want to load it up and weigh it - no sense paying for something you don't need. Measure twice, cut once.
A custom trailer is I think the best plan - I like the idea of outside access - swing up a side and and there's everything you need. Open the back and roll out the subs. I have an old boat trailer I've considered modifiyting..getting the sheet metal or such covering (not necessary but nice) and then the cost of all the hardware for door frames, etc.
I have been looking at used,,,, the bad thing is that most have been rode hard and put up wet!!!!if you know what I mean. In need for bearing and tires. The good ones were almost as much as a new one! They sell quickI'm sure you know buying a used trailer
would be just as affordable,
would require less effort and talent,
and certainly be quicker to get on the road.
@IceBurghDJ im not making it up. I am attaching some of the quotes.

How come those quotes start with a trailer that is $2,000 or so more than any I've linked to?
Your second one wants $5150 for the base trailer and $495 more for a ramp door...really? EVERYTHING i linked to includes the door..duh!
$2625 for 7000# dual axle with drop ramp..$3000 less that your second quote. THREE GRAND LESS.
