pauly Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 I'm looking at getting a new trailer to haul an ATV and my Clam 6800 portable (6' by 3+' folded up). I would also like to be able to pull the trailer on the lake with the ATV. The smaller the better! Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sutty Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 I have a bear trax 5 X 8 trailer that I really like. I have not put my portable in with the atv since it has gone in my truck but I think it would work. As for the trailer I really like it. It is is pulled by my sportsman 500 with ease and the back folds down so you don't need ramps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cold one sd Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 I have had a 5x8 Aluma for four years now and it has been great. I would stay away from the some of the cheepo steel ones that some of the farm stores sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave S Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 I would stay away from the some of the cheepo steel ones that some of the farm stores sell. That's what I have and I've easily gotten my money out of it. The biggest problem is it rusted before I used it. Still works. Had to add new lights after 6 years of use.

fivebucks Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I had a cheapo steel and it lasted about 6 years or so. It would still work but was cheaply built with welds breaking, smaller tires, intermittant lights etc. I got a 5x8 Aluma and I love it. It will easily last a bunch longer than the cheapo. My otter lodge fits perfect sideways in front or behind my ATV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carpenter Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I use an 8.5 x 10 snowmobile trailer to haul my atv's or a single atv and the 3man frabil. if you search this forum, we discussed trailers and ice houses a little while back as well.
