Hey Cap, My priorities was definitely the smoker... mobile or not so I really wasn't in too much of a rush for the trailer.
Anyways I finally found this one and it really is perfect. I moved the axel back and cut the legs of the smoker to sit better on the trailer. I installed her bolted her down over the weekend. Liking how its looking so far. Nice and compact. Weight distribution isn't bad. All I have to do not is paint it black and install a rail and a work shelf. Shouldn't take too long.
Here's where I'm at so far.
Thanks for looking.
Cheers
