Default Re: Need to build Kayak Trailer from Utility trailer... Ideas?

Go to your local "industrial metal supply" type store and look for the material that they make street sign posts out of. It's 2x2 sq and has little holes about every 1" or so. Buy enough of it to make the frame and cross members as big as you need, nuts and bolts and some "L" shaped brackets to hold it all together. If you cant find the "L" brackets they also sell "T" brackets that you fit the cross members into.

Think of adult sized erector set and you get the idea. You can drill some holes in the frame of your trailer on the corner and bolt it to or remove it from your trailer as you need. Sorry I dont have any pics as its just an idea for my trailer that hasnt seen the light of day.
