Building a Tire Rack for the trailer
I have always wanted a tire rack for my humble little home made trailer. Hauling around spare wheels - a luxury - is a hassle when you have to put them in the motorhome or Explorer. They take up so much space.
So, with my new found welding skills, welder and design inspiration from my last race weekend, I went to work.
I bought all of the metal, made the cuts and constructed the uprights. I then welded them onto the trailer and connected the cross rails. Then the gussets.
The rack looks great and will hold two additional sets of wheels - practice dry tires and rain tires.
After we got it together, my wife helped me paint it and voila. I am proud. My $300 trailer is maturing nicely. Pictures with tires is unpainted. Have also since trimmed the pole.
