Thanks I'm looking at a 6x12 and I think that'll be pretty close to what I'm gonna get...sharp looking rig too!

5x8 utility trailer, this pic is just as I finishing up adding bunks to it.

I use the bunks to haul my 2 kayaks, I remove the tailgate for that.

or I remove the bunks and haul my ATV, or yard crap to the brush sites.

I like a 6x12 trailer. It's a good useful size for hauling ATVs, sheet rock & studs or pretty much anything else out there.

My advice, get the heaviest axle you can under it with a real 15" wheel.
Not some cheap little **** wheel that'll be spinning at 120,000 RPM at 70 MPH.
(Numbers potentially exaggerated for effect).

blown out way too many of those dinky trailer tires than I care to count...but my current one has 15" marathons....no issues.

thanks guys will do...
I was wondering on thoughts on adding brakes to a 2,990 GVWR trailer...worth it? Not?
May be overkill but I'd like to save the wear on my truck and finally get to use the TBC that came with my truck...lol.

Not in my opinion, no, not worth it on such a light trailer.
