Im looking to build a small trailor to haul 4x8 sheet lumber or anything small so I dont have to rely on people to borrow trucks.

How do you title a home made trailer? HArbor freight sells 4x8 trailers for $250 but they have not much more than wheel barrow wheels on em. how hard would it be to upgrade one of those to better wheel and tires....I forget the rest of what I wanted to ask (damn pain killers lol)

i titled mine as 'homebuilt" but you will have to ask in your state.

Check out places like Northertool for trailer parts. They have everything to build your own.

In the past I bought a single jet ski trailer and the I built a wood deck on it I used it for years hauling my four wheeler, furniture, garbage then I sold a few years later. It worked like a champ...

Something I learned is you need BIGGER than 4x8 to carry a 4x8. Especially if it has sides on.
