• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Spyder Hauler

Questions

New member
Have noticed several very nice trailers on the site. Here is my version of a Spyder Hauler. Started with 5x8 Carryon trailer, bought mine used, but you can by them new at Lowes, TSC and probably a lot of other places. Modifications, angled out the side rails 10 degrees to clear wheel spokes, cut and added "VEE" in front for Spyders nose, aluminum diamond plate for wheel tracks, probably didn't need them but thought it looked "cool" and only $40, New locking mechanism for ramp fabricated with Heim joints. Spare tire carrier. Repainted as it was originally GREEN and wasn't going to haul my John Deere with it. Total cost $435 trailer, $75 welding, $12 Heim joints, $10 misc steel, $ $30 spray paint, $15 spare tire carrier.
