Could I put 15″ wheels on this trailer? Larger wheels would increase the safe towing speed and also raise the camper three inches.
Here’s an article on “axle flipping”:
Flipping the axle raises the trailer bed a few inches. Can the axle on this trailer be flipped? A guy in the comments section at Amazon says that he flipped the axle on a 5×8 Harbor Freight trailer.
I’ll cut a hatch in the floor of the camper, so I can stand on the ground while inside. I’m 5’10”. If the roof is only a few inches higher than it appears in your pictures, I could stand straight up.
