Trailer for Nomad

**nomadtom69** · 12-17-2010, 04:11 PM

Looking to build trailer to pull behind Nomad so I can haul my Bicycle to different places to ride (old RR beds they have turned into riding trails aka Rails to Trails) that gives me exercise and I get to ride my Nomad to boot . There was a member on the Nomad Spot Light that had one built one tried to find him and send him a pm but can not seem to find him name is Rick Greif out of Ala.

Several of us have built trailers to tow behind our Nomads. Is there something in particular you're looking for?

Looking to build one with a flat bed so I can mount bicycle rack and maybe later put a turtle top on it to use to go on long trips the member that had one on the Nomad Spot Lights looked about what I was looking to build

This is the one I'm going to buy. I plan on cutting it down by about 4" in width.
There is also one with 8" wheels available.

I bought a trailer like in the link Budman posted. I cut down the width and added a car top carrier. Here's a good resource for you:

Harbor Freight has a MC trailer, that's not much money.

Gadgets Fixit sight has a good trailer building article.

I made one and didn't like the way it worked out so I tore it apart and put the box back on it. I thought of a easier way to do it but just haven't taken the time to do it.

Question....how is the wind at hwy speeds? This was a concern if the trailer would be too light and whip around...that would not be good. :-/

**nomadtom69** · 12-19-2010, 12:00 PM

That is the trailer that I was trying to find the member who made it his name is Rick Greif from Madison Ala. but I can not find him on here to pm him about the trailer
