I'm building this for my D11: The basic frame is almost complete: The start of the fixed gooseneck: Tires and wheels are from AITM. The drive axle hubs will be replaced with Stemco trailer hubs:

Dennis, I have been waiting for you to start this build thread. And you have not disappointed me. The is going to be one heck of a trailer. I am looking forward to seeing what suspension you put under it.
Be Well Gator

Thanks Marc. I cannot find any pics for a suspension. Considering the weight of the tires, I plan on a very basic setup which will be an axle passing through an I-beam.
