Hey FRA, what are you using for axles? I am working on a trailer for one of my boats and i am using SS tubes with the next size smaller tube turning inside of it. The rest of my trailer is made of aluminum. What is yours? Looks very good.

the whole thing is 1/2 inch sq. tubing with sq. bar stock sledged into the ends where the cross pieces meet the side rails.the side rails have sq. holes that accecpt the bar stock.the bar stock ends are tapped so the cap bolts hold it all together. because it is a stand (and never intended to roll) 1/2 inch bolts are ground sq. and also sledged (read inteference fit) into the sq. tubing.the heads cut off and nuts hold the wheels on.

FRS yeah wondered if it was your boat stand for starting purposes and glad to hear it is.. Classy

Me into the drag scene big cars and model boats, love speed in all things, but it's the acceleration that really turns me on.

its strong enough to stand on, and its a stand that looks like it belongs under a boat.
