Heavy Duty Triple Axle Trailer Build 

Dude, the quote at the start. Ive let sooo many people cripple my ambition and creativity... my mom told me a long time ago to be in the driver seat of ur own life...

Some really good fabrication here, running inner shield down hill on something this scale is scary. I hope your getting the penetration that's needed for something that's bounces down the highway carrying thousands lbs. I'm not seeing it.

The actual squaring out of this reminds me of building walls. Except you don't nail in a pallet to keep it square

Great job! Way to jump in and learn.

This turned out really well. Good stuff

Hello my friend! What a great job. I'm fascinated by it all

Cant wait for part two.

Awesome trailer build!! I plan to build something similar. When do you think part 2 will be out?

The right side weld on the tounge looks a bit shady. Would recommand a second pass and even a cap. NBSwelding has lot’s of greate tips 👍🏻

Coming up great.. good work!!.. 🙂🙂

Great build! Love the determination! For what it’s worth, rather than bend the plate to reinforce your tongue, for the same cross sectional thickness the weld material is stronger than your base metal if you’re using a 70ksi wire. So cut the plate and ensure full penetration in both your cut channel and the splice plate and you’d save yourself some sledge hammering! My 2 cents. But love the determination! I don’t trust my welding enough yet to build a trailer even though I’m an engineer and understand the science!

Nice, I'm glad to see the Eastwood MP 250 is working well for something that heavy duty. I haven't used mine yet, have a 10 Pequea trailer I bought that needs some serious repair from the middle back.

very good job

Think you can swap the hubs of the 7000 lbs axles to up the load capacity. Say to 8000 lb hubs,ect. To get extra 3ton in axle weigh capasity. Eliminating restrictions of the weight of trailer includes. , still has to match what the truck will tow. On the tow rating tag. Think the 3\4-1ton trucks are rated for 8400 lbs. The 1 tons are rated for 1 ton less then the 3\4 tons also. So a 3\4 ton beefed up to 1 ton loads will tow like the 3\4ton weight restrictions , plus. the extra ton I get with the 3\4 ton tow capacity takes the weight of goodness subtracted. Then the trailer weight ultimately is subtracted from extra ability of the axle hub rating upgrade. IF ADDING A FLAT DECK TO KEEP LOW CENTER OF GRAVITY ASWELL. EVEN BETTER. DUALLY UPGRADE FOR STABILITY ALSO. ONLY USE FOR THE 8'TOP DECKS. SPARE TRANSMISSION, EXTRA TIRES, TOOLS. ON SIDE OF SLEEPER CAB. LIGHS, CHAINS, STRAPS BOX U DER GOOSENECK TOP DECK NEAR JACKS. Non CDL, NOT FOR HIRE TRUCKS, PRIVATE USE TRUCKS

You can take Jack apart and rotate the bottom 90 so the handle is on the side for the drop leg at least on some I have used

What are the specs on your main beams? Your cross beams, spacing?

I am curious about the diamond reenforcement plates you 100% welded the edges, but is there a reason beyound more work not to also cut some plugholes and plug weld the plate as well? The reason i ask as i have seen this done on my uncles trailers in Germany, the trailers where made in Germany, seems like a good way to do it but maybe it is good old German over engineering at play. Thank you for the video, Take care. God bless one and all.

I would have done multiple pases on flux core and probably used something like a e71t-11 wire, I rather have a trailer like this one than a name vrand for triple the price.

Can you give me the measurement on your axle placement im going to build a 30 foot bumper pull too

Would cutting releafs in those fish plates to bend them make dem redundant?

Nice job , Did you build the saw horses ?

I'm pretty sure i didn't just see you dip your tip in nozzel gel right before doing a wild. I must be imagining it. I'm sure you know that you dip your tip then do a couple inches on scrap metal to avoid porosity in a weld that matters...

Target trailer weight?

I'm really hoping the perspective is messing with me. It's seems like all of your filet welds are concave. But see i know that can't be true because you appear to know what you are doing. You would know that concave Flux core filet welds are almost guaranteed to break... hopefully it's camera angles deceiving me...

Did you ever make a 2nd video?

Is Part 2 of the build still coming?

Do you have to have a cdl license just to drive this away from your building site?

Brandon. Now that you have used the trailer for awhile, what if anything would you change?

Looks great. What is the cost of materials?

How did you get a title for it??

Sorry, asked the questions before you addressed them in the video.

Oh gah please buy or borrow a plasma for that much cutting. Or at least a chop saw.

Ur lightning doesn’t strike the same place lol

U can’t hurry welding
