Can't remember the name but maybe someone else will pipe in. There's a tray that has swivel wheels under the back. Wouldn't be hard to fabricate some thing along that line.


True. And if I remember correctly, this is considered an add-on, not a trailer because it is directly mounted to the frame and the swivel wheel(s) are for support.

I just can't remember the name of the manufacturer.

without even searching, there were at least four links in this thread with possible solutions... two trailer type carriers and two truck type carriers...

with either trailer type they say they are a single unit with the RV...

however my research on this showed this to be questionable at best...

in some states anyway it may be considered as towing doubles... this is something I would look at more closely before buying...

for easy reference here are the four links in one place...

my preference would be the idahotote...

you may want to consider something like this...

cruiserlift/swivelwheel

diamondback truck hauler

truckstuff truck carrier


Love my mass produced, entry level, built by Lazy American Workers, Hornet

Besides the total weight of the hitch and all pieces you put on it the additional length out the rear will remove even more weight off of the tounge!! I bet she will tow real good! Not!!!! You Roo!
