In this video I give a full walk through of the Harbor Freight 40x48 utility trailer that I converted to a kayak trailer. On this build I only did a few modifications. The one major modification I did was add a 10-foot steel extension. This gives plenty of room for the Old Town Bigwater 132. I have about 2 to 2 1/2 feet from the front of the trailer to the back of my Subaru Crosstrek. This was a fun build that only took a few hours to complete.

Got the heavy duty one I use it for my Jon boat, Put a winch in the front jackstands in the back, easy tilt off the trailer my wife wanted something easy so she didn’t have to do any lifting in the back of the pick up truck the Sund dolphin weighing 110 adding 5:53 seats and a few other things brings up the weight. The trailer is great very affordable. Put the bearings in right and grease them up, change the grease fittings they’re cheap and break off too easy replace them. I am very happy with the dolphin and the Harbor freight trailer with a six hp mercury. 40 min Kota Personally, I call that heaven can’t wait to get out there again

I am currently building my kayak over the winter with trolling motor, battery, etc. My thought has always been to modify the harbor freight trailer in a similar manner, but everyone was using the larger, and I want the smaller one you used. Thanks for the video, I see myself replicating soon. 🙂

I absolutely love this thing. Super convenient and easy project. The only thing I have since modified is the bunks. The PVC cracked so I went with wooden, carpeted. So much more sturdy and cheap. If you search my page I did a video on the mod about two weeks ago.

I use the same one with my old town. I definitely want to extend the tongue length to have the weight distribution better.

@@DaveysWorldFishing what are the exact dimensions of the steel tube you used?

@DaveysWorldFishing 11 дней назад

@@Tackletuesdayfishing It’s a 2x2 by 10’ long. I don’t recall the thickness, but it is probably in one of these comments.

Lower the tire pressure to stop the bouncing. 10 - 15psi will work for that lite of a load..

Thanks! I have been thinking about a trailer for my fishing kayak. I think mine is roughly the same as yours. The trailers I've looked at are ridiculously priced! This seems like an affordable solution.
