About Our Car Trailer Plans

 

All of our car trailer plans contain over 40 pages to eliminate any guess work. The plans include the step by step building instructions and materials list. This means that all of the necessary measurements, sketches, images and drawings that you need to build these trailers from start to finish are included. As well the the step by step instructions that walk you through each step of the building process.

 

We have also included the instructions for the angle iron loading ramps. And we could have left it at that, but good enough is not what we strive for, so in each set of plans we also included the instructions for building the trailers with an optional dovetail in case you should want to build it on your trailer. And if that was not enough, in every set of plans we also provided the instructions as well as materials lists for building the car trailers with a wood deck or a metal deck or runners, so you can choose what best suits your needs.

 

About The Car Trailers

 

All of the car trailers that we sell plans for are heavy duty tandem axle 8' wide car trailers with a gvwr of 10,000#. Our 8’ wide car trailers have an actual deck width of 86” wide. So the deck will be a little under 8’ wide and the over all trailer width will be a little over 8’ wide.

 

These car trailers really are not hard to build. A couple items you may want to invest in if you do not already own them that will make life easier while building the frame are a couple 45/90 degree welders clamps.  You do not have to have them to build this trailer, but it sure makes life easier when it comes to getting the main frame square so you can put your first tack welds on the corners.


One thing you will see a lot in our plans is “square” getting the frame square before you weld it is very important, but we show you how to do this and how to check it to make sure its square before you put a weld on anything.

These trailers really are not hard to build, just follow the step by step instructions. And the amount of money that you can save by building your own car trailer is more then worth it.
