has any one ever had to pull
a small trailor one about the size of a 6 foot bed
single axle man them things are hard to see when backing up and hard to back up my friends grandma let us use there trailor and are letting us use it whenever to pull 4wheelers so i guess im gonna have to figure out the trick im good with long trailors but not small short ones |
yeah I built one awhile back and didn't really think it through. It's heavy duty and can hold 3 tons, and I built it out of 1/4" angle Iron and square stock, but I built it so that the wheel wells sit perfectly inside of the rear fenders of the truck and you can't actually see the trailer at all... it sucks.
Generally I stick a couple poles on the rear corners of the trailer or I just take my tailgate off and it seems to work fine |
ill give it a try

I had that issue with my dually even blocking my 10 foot trailer. I hate to turn aound to back a trailer so I installed some extendable towing mirrors = MUCH BETTER! They are larger than stock plus extendable, but even without pulling them out I can see the trailer now.

Short trailers aren't any fun to back up :-(.
I pull and back up my MasterCraft without any problem but, one day, my buddy asked to back his jet ski trailer down the ramp and, well.... I didn't hit or damage anything but, it wasn't one of my greatest moments! lol |
Yep they get squirrely REAL quick!

I use a flag off my 4wheeler to give me something to see. I pull a goose neck most of the time and then going to a 2 place ATV trail is a challenge.
