MiniSimp's 1985

[DTB]

 



I don't know if I'd call it a Trailer Queen, but Trailer Trash might work.

edit: I was hoping for more than that...maybe a bobby long twist test or something I'd like to see em, though.

OUCH! thats a good one duffil! 1 turtle point for u my friend 

[MiniSimp]

Whats wrong with trailer trash?

[Duffil]

as long as you don't mind some pants rabbits here and there, nothing


uhm...just a joke about cleanliness.

[mickeyfinn]

WTF? You have, 4.10s?!

[MiniSimp]

WTF? You have, 4.10s?!

Yessir! You're just jealous.
4.10's and 37's go good together on the street.

[mickeyfinn]

With a 3400lb truck and a 7000lb GVRW, I doubt it.

how long is the trailer

[MiniSimp]

how long is the trailer

12' inside the box.

[mickeyfinn]

that is what i thought. those tires do some squeaking when you load it

[MiniSimp]

1.5" to spare on each side.

It's tight.

[skipnrocks]

Nice work man,  how wide is your rig sittin,  whats the trailer width.  I am looking for a trailer for my rig,  but I sit 80in wide up front, and most 12' and 14' trailers seem to be 76" wide, and I dont really want an 18footer. 

[MiniSimp]

I'm 80" wide sidewall to sidewall and the trailer is 83" wide inside.

[lilbuddy]

Yessir! You're just jealous.
4.10's and 37's go good together on the street.

Is that sarcastic?

If so I disagree because I never had any problems running 37s and 4.10s before I swapped thirds. I could pull 60mph uphill with ease with 4.10s

[MiniSimp]

I haven't had any problems yet running 4.10's...except 65mph is 4th gear at 2500rpm's

[lilbuddy]

I haven't had any problems yet running 4.10's...except 60mph is 3rd gear at 2500rpm's

Oh. I just wasnt sure if that was sarcasm or not... cool

He has got 2000lbs to spare. The trailer probably weighs about 1500lbs.

1400

[alwayzbroken]

1400

100lbs per foot is the general rule, I added a 100 lbs just in case

[MiniSimp]

Added a limit strap to the rear.

[DTB]

what is the limiting factor? shocks? DS? what the strap for?

[MiniSimp]

Driveshaft falls out at full droop. Just incase I ever jump it, it'll be fine.

[*** YELLER ***]

not bad just not great   

[MiniSimp]

It looks like

[unclejpl4x4]

seat belt  for the rear I love it.

[Duffil]

what's up with all those butt connectors? It's called SOLDER and heatshrink... :heashake: Oh well, at least you don't DD the thing.

[MiniSimp]

Just ordered some needed parts, and a hoodie for the wife. (shhhh don't tell her)

[MiniSimp]

Yep, Beard and Procomp are working together and made those. They sell from Procomp as limit straps.
