Our trailer plans are complete. You will receive a full list of materials, as well as a list of components for the build. Each trailer has many appropriate functional options – like ramps, or sides, or deck types, or tailgate, or jack styles, and a bunch more. Build them if you want, or choose to leave them off. It is all up to you.
Not all trailers have all options, and we encourage you to add your own ideas. We include a section of Engineering Considerations to help you understand things about your new trailer – like where you are free to make changes, and where you should not.
So, with our plans, as you build your own trailer, you can confidently choose the things you want, and know how to make it perfect for you. Truly, with Mechanical Elements you get more, because we want you to be successful.
