I guess I should say this is the first time I've built anything like this..I've done the back halves on a couple drag cars , but never built from scratch and never owned anything with a solid front axle..I have done alot of welding on industrial type platforms and shelving..Built quite a few trailers and flatbeds,that sort of stuff..I use a Miller 250X that I've had for about 12 years..
Heres a 20' Gooseneck I built ![]() a motorcycle trailer I built for a co-worker, traded it to him for a clean 81 SWB Chevy truck ![]() and my eternal project, my 18' tilt deck car hauler..I seem to redesign it about once a year ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Tim |

Hey man, nice start there. You could do what I did, and build your front grill from two full size Chevy truck door window frames.

That's ingenious! Good eye figuring out that would work out so well.

I've made a little progress the last few days but didn't take any pics..I finished the bungs in the ends of my front bars,got the heims in and installed..so the front is a roller..Was excited to see that it turns lock to lock without binding and clears everything nicely..remember,first build here
