[QUOTE="ccm, post: 348474, member: 13447"] I've seen small utility trailers used before. Before I got my trailer road worthy I used our 18ft farm trailer. I think the back of your truck would be fine to use but I really cant judge until I see some pics of your trailer setup. If you are going to back the trailer in past the wheels I would suggest new bearings races and seals along with bearing buddies to prevent your wheel bearings from burning up. Nothing worse than being stuck on the side of the road with smoke coming from the hub. I don't think it would be to much of a concern your rig is pretty light. Just make sure the coupler secures to the hitch and use safety chains. Strap down the boat well too. [/QUOTE]
