Last year I bought an old tent trailer converted to utility trailer from my parents after we bought our quad (something to carry it around).
I stripped that trailer down to just frame, (it had sat for something like 10 years in the bush so everything was rotted out) and started to rebuild.
When we moved from our old place to this place, the last thing we moved was a 1200lb safe. Unfortunately over the winter, the safe sat in the trailer.
The trailer its self wasn't capable of holding this much weight, especially on 5/8 OSB! Once you add the spring melt, the crappy deck, and the weight of the safe, guess what happens? Yup, through the floor, bent the cheapo supports etc etc.
I then decided to rebuild it.. hefty hefty...
This is the original frame, the first trailer rebuild on the left. That grey box in the back is a 1200lb safe (and I forgot the combo!!!!)
Side view, with a better view of the first trailer. Not a bad unit, just enough room for the quad - not much else, canoe on the roof.
As I said, crappy supports, this one was bent from the weight of the safe, I bent it back into place by hand.
