JimSraj 545 #1 Posted Thursday at 01:45 AM Guess you could say I ‘poached’ a Deere. Had a plywood tailgate when I got it on the cheap. A piece of chain link fence top rail and a coupling cut in half make the fabbed tailgate work pretty much like the real one did. 7 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JimSraj 545 #4 Posted Thursday at 05:28 PM Cleaning it up, making the tailgate and latch was a fun project. Thinking about adding some Wheel Horse decals. I had no idea at the time what these JD carts are selling for but I’ve seen them, in no better condition than mine was for $200 and as high as $500. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JimSraj 545 #6 Posted yesterday at 01:33 AM It’s a really sturdy well made trailer and that’s what I was looking for. Yeah, I probably could have made a few bucks on it but I got what I was looking for and had a good time making the tailgate and latch. Trouble is I have made it too nice to want to use it. 🙄 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
