[QUOTE="WPS, post: 371949, member: 15301"] You just need to make sure to order the right size for the tubing to fit in... Amazon & eTrailer has a lot of different sizes. I've made a lot of those in my shop, and most are for 3"x3". Yeah, you can move it around by hand, but a little uphill may be harder... They sell a trailer dolly to move trailers around with, but you may not need one. Here's a link to those on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_0_9?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=trailer+dolly&sprefix=trailer+d%2Caps%2C289 My Lund that I'm working on is a S-14'... I slid my axle back near the rear so I can have some tongue weight... If the axle is moved forward, then it is easier to pick up and move around, but I can still pick the trailer/boat up pretty easy! On the Lund in the link... It looks like it will be easy to pick up by hand and moved around, because the axle is in the middle of the boat... Plus, the motor on the rear will make it easier too!... Can't see the trailer jack in the picture, but when you get a boat make sure the trailer jack has a wheel. [/QUOTE]
