Congratulations on the trailer, I hear you on learning the new trailer, I just switched from a 24ft tag to a 36ft gooseneck this winter. Taking some learning at I have to back it into the garage every time I take it out but it sure pulls a lot nicer than a tag.

Haha, yes. But they only had a fat middle aged gnome available.

In retrospect I probably should have had the winch centered (if possible) since my cars are pulled from the top of the roll hoops.
Nice trailer - congrats!

Just change your winch cable to synthetic rope - it winds much better even with an off center winch mount.

Thanks Frank.
I test pulled my big fat 997TT in with the winch and it worked great. I think it is synthetic cable.

Very nice trailer. Personally, I like towing with a 5th wheel/gooseneck more than a bumper pull. If you're hauling a car and you have the right truck, may as well go for the g-neck.


Again, very nice trailer, you did good
