Mighty Liar Mods!
LEGENDS!!! I'm in the US so I'll have to continue using my own shitbox trailers to go pick up my own shitboxes - but thanks for reminding me - I need a new pair of sunnies !!! Time to hit the MCM store!
Can you guys do a hino 300 build in the future?❤ (or anything similar Isuzu nlr)
Fair play, I got an answer from the MCM Sales. I can not win the trailer but I will purchase something and whatever comes out of that, will be good enough for me. / Love Risto from Germany. Love your work, keep it up. Love.
I literally just sold my race car and a few months ago my farm car (Syd to Mudgee)... I couldn't go where they would go with me :(
I'm sure there's people who deserve something like this more than me.... but there is no person that would use it more than me!
We love you guys, and I'd love this to go to someone who would use it all the time!
That hinged mud guard is brilliant
100% agree, amount of time i've bunged my door getting in and out. Probably start seeing this on a heap of trailer designs now.
It is an awesome design. Fortunate in the US u-haul rents flat tow trailers with that feature. Just have to remember to put it down BEFORE driving up the trailer
@@ecorp2120 yeah, I've fallen for that trap.
Agreed, I wish my trailer had that, like the U-Haul do. But even on my lowest cars, my fender is still clear of the door, so I guess I'm okay.
Why don't they leave it in the down position all the time out of curiosity? Is it suspension travel?
This was definitely main mcm channel worthy. Great videos yall!
Maybe we'll get a disrespected nose of the build on the main? who knows ;)
Better video than a tonne of videos on the main channel.
Eh. If they were planning on using it themselves, yeah, but this was made for a giveaway
@@Dave1507 disrespected nose style is my favorite
It's really good to see you guys promoting Australian manufacturers.
Also: Marty!
When will MCM trailers be available in the merch shop
You only buy Cheryl’s box trailer at this stage until they update the web store.
And shipped worldwide haha ;)
Carasel can make you one!
The best trailer channel on the internet..
Thanks carassel, that's some mint as manufacturing!
Awesome to see Marty getting to weld on the trailer. I’m just starting my first welding class. Such a fun skill to grow.
I started to bug my eyes out of my skull when Moog said "...and we will get that trailer to you... Anywhere you are..." and I'm thinking "HOW?! That's gotta be impossibly expensive." And then he said "...in the country," and my dreams were dashed and my whole life completely fell apart. 🤣 But I knew it couldn't be true anyway. :)
Same!
I've heard Moog say lots of things over the years but "my mum's box" almost gave me whiplash.
21K Trailer to pickup your 2K nugget. Awesome!
MARTIN! It's good to see you're less stuffed and got your voice back.
two are better than one.
Nice trailer. The folding fenders are an amazing idea.
Looks great. One thing i would add is a Solar Panel and charge controller so when its not being used it keeps its charge but does not get over charged. Also maybe a inverter to power 240v stuff built into the box.
Anderson plug handles that on the tow vehicle
I've made a few so far, increasingly bigger for the bigger things i've needed to move and if there's one thing above all that stands, it's this: sketch the accepted, rated trailer of your needs, then multiply everything by 20%. You will have caveats like fuel loss, but you'll never sit on the side of the road contemplating your life choices - well, unless you run out of fuel, but that's small on the grand scheme of things. Gussets, solid welding, layering, proper suspension, proper layout, proper materials. The less you skimp, the more you uprate, the better the end product and the more you'll have it pay you back.
*120%
I love how Marty has morphed into a fabricator over the years, he may have been that even before MCM but with the help of Turbo Yoda and good ole Benny, those skills have been refined and keep doing so, bloody fantastic guys from home garage to Super Garage.
Amazing giveaway guys! One of the main reasons why I had to sell my project cars was because I couldn't afford to keep having them transported when I moved house - a trailer would have saved so much money! Brilliant design too - looks like a track day rig!
It looks great. Can it roll with the fenders folded down? It looks like it can.
Great trailer. Love it. Hinged mud guard in genius. Need some sort of folding camper to slide on it
Looks great! Best mod is some work lights, everyone always goes to pick up shitboxes in the dark and some work lights make a big difference!
Thats the Carasel that fitted our GLC towbar.
Good guys. Looked after us and did a great job. Even kept the kick sensor.
That's a mighty trailer indeed. You blokes have been entertaining lots of folks for ages now. MCM seems to have all the secret herbs and spices.
Thanks gents for bringing smiles to many, and also for not featuring a Jazz, prices for those things are already through the roof.
I service caravans for a living and it's awesome to see this stuff used for something interesting! ❤
I'm here if you ever need a service haha
Hey Marty, one of the best bits of advice for welding, might or tig…
Try to always weld from uncomfortable to comfortable. It will greatly help with the overall consistency of your finished product.
You’ll be surprised how bunch this little tip helps. Especially on longer runs or tight positions.
Thanks chaps,Great content.The best trailer/4x4 channel in the world.
Kinda shocked you guys are actually giving away that beautiful trailer 😍 this video was more than good enough to be on the main channel 👌👍
Epic looking trailer and design :) - Glad there are places with all the kit (do miss aussie)
The thing i learnt there is a reason you buy aluminum built trailers they are just as strong and weigh so much less (if needed you can put a thin steel sheet down if you have to drag shit onto it), yes might be more expensive but in the long run you save on gas and easier to tow / don't rust
- Reality do whats right for you and remember to actually practice driving with it, towing a car on a steel trailer is a lot different to having a load of dirt etc and remember your tow vehicle will have a weight limit too which is a lot lower than you probably think, know your braking distance
We had a locally made landscaping trailer for work. Thing was brilliant. Once hit a 20 cubic yard dumpster. (about the size of a school bus)
the Dumpster moved.
trailer was fine.
That's a seriously NICE trailer! Congrats to whoever wins it.
I've been wondering for YEARS when you two were going to get a car trailer. Well done.
I'm at the bribing of the video as I write this but I'm confident you'll get something good.
Pause 5:48. This is gonna be my new laptop wallpaper... AMAZING SHOT!!! You guys are awesome....
I agree! Looks so frickin great!
I would have never thought I will watch an episode about trailers…but it’s MCM 😅. Also, that trailer looks awesome, great job everyone involved.
That is an epic trailer!
I was thinking it was heavier than you guys needed with your love for smaller Japanese cars, but it all made sense at the end.
2min in and loving it. Being a country boy we buy little and fab everything in the shed outback. Love this content.
I have a question, those wheels, have they got to be weight rated for the capacity of the trailer? I don't know if it's still a thing, but in Qld you "technically" had to have weight rated wheels and tyres on a commercial vehicle (ie. Vans and utes).
Not just commercial vehicles. All vehicles have to have the correct weight rated wheels and tyres on them.
I got my Subaru Liberty Gen 4 towbar installed here! Great work 100% recommend. Had to go back a couple of days later because my shifter broke trying to get the towball off for my bike rack and I told them I can't get the towball off! "No worries mate" They said, "Go down the back there and tell em you need ya ball snapped" .. The story has a happy ending, my ball got snapped by a professional and I walked away smiling. Also the cafe across the road does a Maaad bacon egg and cheese burger
Folding wheel guards FTW!
that is a very well thought out trailer package. Good luck to those who go into the draw. I unfortunately don't have anything to tow it with
Damn! So much content the last few weeks! Thanks guys, you are awesome!
That is one seriously impressive piece of kit. Top quality work.
it helps to brace your hip to a solid object and one of your elbows to your waist or hip on the other side when welding
Just from the thumbnail alone it looks so badass
Could be the video but it looks quite high. Ive never see a trailer with ramp holders like that before normally they are all flat decks. Looks awesome and I've already purchased the pack.🤞
Best trailler channel i have ever seen!
Having built dozens of tailers over the years, it interesting to see different designs for them. that would not be the design I would have built here in the states. We also use uncoated steal in ours. It is very interesting to see.
If you put a pully on de tire rack, lead the winge over it to lift engines out on location. You would have a mobile workshop
I like the coupler on that. We can get a type of cast steel but not like that or in aluminum.
That trailer is the best thing I've seen. Looks like everything has been thought of with so many little details.
I'd enter the competition but I have no need for a car trailer - if my Subie breaks down, I don't have another car to tow it with anyway!
I wouldn't mind a motorcycle trailer however, to take my motorcycle down to Philip Island for track days! Now that's a competition I'd enter.
Best of luck to all who enter and congrats to whoever wins it!
Those hinged guards are brilliant!!
Such a brilliant trailer and nice designs incorporated. Well done boys
Awesome stuff guys Looks like a well thought out trailer. Honestly a bit disappointing you guys didn’t get it galvanised but. It’s going to rust from the inside out within a few years..
I work for Felk trailers up in Newcastle this stuff is my jam! If you guys need anything trailer related hit me up 🎉
Kudos to your cameraman lads, some really beaut footage of the welding!
Shout out to the camera person - really enjoying the shots in this one - some really great angles and lighting happening, currently only 5 minutes in, and felt the need to comment
Thats some quality mcm editing there boys! Electric winch is primo too!
Truly the ultimate trailer for cars 😍
Awesome trailer build looks ace!!
It’s pretty neat to see how trailers are made in Australia, I live in the USA trailers here are stupidly expensive.
I was listening to Moog on Spotify while playing Forza Horizon 5 and now I get to watch these geniuses! Epic Day!!!
the dropping of those side rails are epic!
Love this! Please do more content promoting Australian made products!
What an absolutely excellent trailer. Looks mad
Ah, the mighty XR250. One of the best dirt bikes ever made besides the XR400. 👌
Awesome. Spent ten years building trailers. Biggest overlooked part of self built car trailers on youtube is brakes / overrun device. Sweeet trailer
I can't believe your giving that away! That is absolutely excellent!!! Shame I don't live in au 😢
Okay that's pretty sweet. I really need to improve my trailer. I'm inspired now.
Wow that an amazing trailer! Too bad I can't win it from over here in the US. Good luck to all my Aussie fam!
I built the first offroad trailer with cruise master components in the U.K. DISC BRAKES RACING SUSPENSION. ETC.
Carasel's pickup truck parked beside your trailer is equally cool - kudos for promoting local business guys
Just need to add two sets of rollers w/guide rails (18" wide or so) running front-to-back to make loading and unloading easier when wheels are locked up.
Good on @carasel - freakin epic!
Did you say Win 🏆 crikey!!
Wooohhh, u guys are full of surprises !!! Legends 😆
2:17 get that sticker off that hat 😂
Absolute wild exposure setting for the intro lol
Hah, I feel like it gives it a slightly mad max vibe or something
This would be perfect! Just got a tow car and am saving up for a trailer. As a subaru owner it would help me get my car to and from track days knowing i can thrash the car and not worry about getting stranded at the track. As soon as i saw this in entred. I hope the winner uses this trailer and it does not just sit parked in a driveway or sold. I could not think of anything more perfect for my situation!
Can I tow it with my Honda? (It's a Jazz)
I'd really love something like this to tow my cheap motorcycle nuggets, but with a foldable design so that it doesn't take up much space when not in use.
The doggie was awesome. Some sort of poodle cross, excellent 👍
Dammit!!
I and a couple of friends are thinking of getting a rusty nugget to play around in some tracks near us, this would have been perfect to carry a non road legal car around, but I live in Spain soo...
Foreign viewer, so I can't win the trailer, but it was great to see some manufacturing places local to you all! We used to have some Amada lasers like the one in your video where I work but switched brands a while back. The Amada Ensis makes a lot of sense for a company that would need to cut both sheet and tube materials.
Our newest lasers are so fast it is almost ridiculous on thinner steel (less than 1/4 inch) and still very impressive on 1 inch plus steel!
10:28 Not quiet fully ;) Love to see the German Alois-Kober (AL-KO) Trailer Hitch.
6:10 you need a beveled edge for a thicker, stronger weld, it prevents imperfections
That's a work of art. Should be on the main channel!
The features on this trailer are amazing
Absolute Legends!
That guy at 2:50 has to be related to Benny 😂😂
ive been watching mcm for years from amearica so i finally bought some merch first youtuber i have bought merch from
Very interesting video (again). You're in a roll with them.
A step above what I’m used to.
Is the plywood strong enough?
I don’t know, just giver and see if the sled makes it into the back of the F150
Make sure those wheels can handle the weight of the trailer and the max load.
that trailer looks absolutely perfect
I did not think I would enjoy a video covering trailer building so much 😅
Well played gentleman. What a trailer!
Moooooooooggggggg please the song while Marty paints!!!! Please brother please !!!! Damn I'd die listening to this song and be a happy man
Caught me off guard with the giveaway, beautiful trailer ✌️
PLEASE MOOG, realease this song that starts playing at 6:40, i have been listening to it in the videos since the e30 build and could never find it. Im sure its one of your bangers, bless us with another great song
You two are weapons. Awesome
This project seems awesome, but what you really need is that Fuso rollback you rented in Japan...
That is a really good-looking trailer.
Sweet ❤ do they do a all alloy version?
All round great video !!
Carasel are the champions here.
And of course they have an Amada! Hell yeah!
