Do you have a regular 2" receiver hitch?

That's a nice one, but didn't make the list due to the speed rating, lack of suspension, and overall weight of the trailer. That'd be a great one for around the farm, but not much good for my purpose.

Thanks d2photo,

I feel like I'm watching Elimidate.

You said on the other due to speed ratings. The trailer from country ATV was rated at 20mph.

How fast are you wanting to go with a trailer attached to your quad.

I'm thinkin anything over 30 would be fairly unsafe with a single axle . double axle would be preferrable.

This looks a bit TOO robust for my needs...and certainly more work to get the way I want it before the first use.

This looks like it could be an awesome trailer though! Did you see anything on this site that mentioned price? I couldn't find one...

I couldn't agree with you more about speed limitations. I don't anticipate traveling over 30 at all.

Thanks again...but again, no suspension...and again...this website doesn't look like anything BUT a pain in the azz to buy from.
