Well brought home a new to me trailer today. Got a price I couldn't pass up. Needs some work, but easy stuff. It's a 22ft rollback deck on a gooseneck frame and a pair of 5k lb tandem axles.

From 31 10.5s to 33 12.5s on 4" not sure on wheel backspacing. It runs the control arms at full turn. Some spacers will fix that. It also just barely tags the flares. Nobdoubt will rub bad when flexing. I am doing the cut n fold anyways, so not to worried about that right now.

Thanks! Wait till i get the cut n fold, the 3 link, and the 4.5" springs under it. Going for the low/sleeper look with a good amount of droop and proper bumpstops!

Let's have some Cav-Fab steering fun shall We!
The knuckles and arm need to be drilled out to a 5/8 size. This can be done without removing the arm or knuckles



My finger indicated where the knuckle or pitman arm goes

Passenger side:


Drivers side:


Pitman arm
