I got the trailer wheels stripped and ready for paint tonight, forgot the pics tho. The 5spd swap in a Lincoln MkvIII is tiring space and my buddies welding time, so the trailer waits in the corner, patiently.
Oh come on Rooster and get the damn thing done already......
Got a an hour in on it tonight, the people that said they would help me are being less than helpful, its frustrating to say the least. Anyway, got a center support in, the tongue mocked in and the supports for the rear STS stand fully welded.
Progress was made! Axle and suspension are next.
We got suspension today! 
Mocked up the wheels and fenders just to get a better idea of what it'll look like, I'm diggin it

Progress was made again. We're narrowing the radius of the fenders to match the wheels a bit better. The back held well when we tacked the back on, but the front opened up on us. So, its sitting until we can get the fender roller and get the fenders mounted to the axle.
We also got the hubs mounted to the plate and axle cut to length.

Axle is on, ride height is about 9 inches
We'll be reinforcing the hub mounts, sorting the fenders and putting the decking down next week.

Have you given any thought to actually pulling that? My trailer's tongue height is at least a foot and it rubs on some parking lot entrances, etc...
Plus your chains are gonna be dragging constantly. :down:
Never fear my good man, we're gonna build the hitch to the trailer height so it'll sit right. If I do spy an entrance or something I won't make, I ill simple refuse to to go there.
We've got the safety chains, thinkin cut them so the won't drag. I've got people a lot smarter than me workin on these details 
Ps- if anyone does see anything horribly wrong, pease mention them so I can get em fixed now before they become a problem later.
