    Thanks for precisions.
    Hydraulic brakes are forbiden here. Only mecanical and since 5 years, mecanical disks start to become available. Most of trailers here are still drum brakes. Same for effect of tongue and weight of the trailer moving forward.
    Measurements on images is a good and simple plan, I like it

    Send me a private message with your address, I will do a simulation of shipping for the steering wheel

    Thank you for making the effort to ease the mind of those of us that cringe at the thought of your trailer.

    I would imagine you will find her much easier to load once you get it lower.


    Are there any restrictions on the overall width of the trailer. Here its 8'6"(2.59m)

    90 bravura 351 1.23/1pmc40 Pefectpass stargazer wake
    You only need two tools wd-40 and duck tape
    If it should move and doesn't wd40
    If it moves and shouldent duck tape

    Yes, restriction here is 2.55m. That's why most of recent big boats like the X35 can't take the road like this. We need to ask for autorisation to tow it, with restrictive hours, days, speed, places etc;
    The average Joe can tow maximum 3500kg, 14m lengh, and 2.55m width.
    We also need another licence than the car licence when we tow more than 700kg and/or the trailer capacity is under the car weight and both don't exeed 3500kg (means a small car + a small boat of 17ft can be towed without dedicated licence)

    My actual trailer is ok. I towed the boat to my summer destination 3 month ago arround 110km/h during 700km with no any difficulty or problem.
    I just would like something nicer, lower, wider and more easy to use

    I took measurements, now I'm trying to get them all sorted. With work as well, I hope to get them to you today.
