    Oh, i'm also starting to build a trailer that'll kinda be like this one.
    Not gonna have the rack or anything fancy right now, just gonna get the deck on, repack the bearings, and get her registered.

    Yeah, it'll be nice to have it where i can haul 2 quads on the trailer and have a tent on it also.

    Here's the trailer, it was on the property when we bought it, no tags or vin plate so we're assuming the PO built it at home.

    It appears to have a #3500 axle, 5 lug (tacoma) bolt pattern, so if i get some spacers i can run these wheels on it.

    Stopped by downsouth motorsports on the way home from class and bought some 9" 5125's, then stopped at Doug's house and placed my order for springs and Ubolts, should have the springs by Friday afternoon.

    Thanks.
    Nope, won't have the leafs until tomorrow or friday, and i don't want to bottom the new shocks out.
    But leafs, shocks and BPV are going on fri/sat, and i'll be building the BPV (out of 1/4'' plate steel) tomorrow if i have time.

    Updates? I haven't seen anything on instagram.....

    I got my BPV built today, it was originally planned to be adjustable from 0-4''(plus what the threaded rod gives) but it's only adjustable 2-4'' (plus what the threaded rod gives) because i wasn't thinking.
    It's gonna get painted tomorrow before i go to class tomorrow.
