Bought this trailer to haul my Z, but it is about a foot too short

It's a great little trailer.
Dual Axle
Rear ramp door
8' wide X 13'6" long X 5' high
lowered car friendly dove tail
numerous tie downs
side door

trailer is low enough to fit inside a garage

e-mail me for pics and more info at "navstokes at yahoo"

Remember with an enclosed trailer you can put etrack strips on the sides and use adjustable shoring beams to create a storage "loft" or tire rack. Even in a short height trailer there should be room over the hood area to store some stuff this way. A short trailer like this would fit in most driveways and be away of storing a dedicated autocross car and tires "out of site". Just have to have a really small car!

If you can't visualize the shoring beams come take a look at my toyhauler this weekend. We can carry a whole bunch abover the car. Of course, my trailer ceiling is 8-9ft depending on location.

Wasn't Chad looking for a 14" long trailer?

An Exige would have 7 inches to spare at each end!

I almost wonder if you'd need to have access doors installed in the front to get to tie downs?


Ian needed to have a "220Z". :lol:

Hi Karen,

Asking 3200 obo on Craigslist

cash money talks though... :king:

Steve, actually your 220 assessment is painfully acurate as my z did fit in the trailer much easier after the experience on the roval :oops:

I think an enclosed trailer would be pushing the tow limit for your 4-runner.
