Building the Northern Tool Ultra-Tow 5 x 8 Aluminum Trailer Kit

I built the Northern Tool Ultra-Tow 5 x 8 Aluminum Trailer Kit in January of 2023. In this video I show all of the steps to assemble this trailer kit. I am planning to use this trailer to build a teardrop trailer.

If someone is going to make a video like this, please learn from this man. He shows everything and exactly what to do. Thank you, sir, for a job well done. I just bought one of these and found it helpful.

Thank you for the tutorial! I've purchased a used one recently and started hearing about aluminum corrosion from the stainless steel bolts. I read you can add rubber flushers to prevent direct contact. Is this something to be concerned about?

Great job on the tutorial, the most comprehensive one on YouTube! I just picked up one of those trailer and mine has some differences when it comes to tow bar attachment. They also changed the order of some steps around and tell you to leave out a couple bolts during initial assembly. Thanks for calling out the stupid marker light detail! The instructions are poorly written and I did not catch that one of my side rails was swapped around.

Thank you for the video! Where do the eight bolts marked SC 8.8 in separate bag go?

Did you compare to harbor freight trailer before buying? I noticed they are the same price but different names.

What's the torque used for the screws and nuts? The manual says nothing about it!!

Great video brother. Are the bolts stainless steel?

[edwardreyes]

Does that trailer come with a vin number??

I want this trailer but i see it is rated only for 45mph. Is there a way to make it go faster?

Just a couple questions how much does the base trailer weigh, and what’s the cost also sorry to hear about your car.
