The "I think"... is more like "I'm going to try but it may not work". :flipoff:

My rig doesn't really fit on our trailer due to the rails on the sides that support the fenders. If I DO get it on there, it will be sitting above the deck on the stubby little siderails... I think it might work as long as I air the tires way down to keep the COG low and chain it down by the body.

There will be a test fit on Saturday... I'll take pics if I maim myself.

Matt, sounds kinda dangerous. I would at least pile up some 4x4s or something under the tires on the trailer deck to spread the load. Remember if you air down a lot, it will cause roll on the tires from side to side and could fall off the rails.

I'll be up Sunday afternoon. Most likely head up for the Rockgarden and Sac-up.

Yeah, I'm not sure what I'm going to do yet. If I can find a good, safe solution with this trailer that doesn't involve cutting the siderails off (it's not my trailer) and re-inforcing the fenders (so I can drive over them), I will be there on Sunday. Otherwise, I'm going to start saving my pennies for a better trailer.

Alright, pretty sure I found a solution and my Jeep now fits on the trailer, test-fit tonight to see for sure. Sooooo... I will be there on Sunday as long as I'm able to get the thing on and off the trailer without too much hassle. :redneck:

Kelly if you find a way there you can ride shotgun :flipoff:
