I bought one of these when Northern first listed them. It has been a great cart and a huge improvement over the metal garden carts I've been towing around. The quad tire arrangement is one of practicality for achieving the weight rating (which if anything is conservative) while maintaining the overall profile. Tire quality is not the best, as I've gotten two punctures from chestnuts on mine, while the ATV tires I run on my carts seem to be immune. On the other hand, I've never had to unload the cart and fix a flat in the field. Even fully loaded with oak logs it rolls home on 3 good tires just fine. One cautionary note is that loading it to the brim with the tailgate down will bow the sides so much the tailgate won't come even close to latching and using it that way will bend out the sides. This is even more inherent than a normal flat sided cart because of the sloped sides. Not a major problem, just something to think about when loading it. One last thing worth mentioning for those that plan on owning it a long, long time... this finish is far superior to any of the metal carts I've ever owned.
see my comments - our tires are losing their treads...
I believe Tractor supply carries the airless tire replacement for this cart at least in Michigan! I have a airless tire on my cheap cart they are two years and they seem to be fine!
@@andrewsarles3520 Cheap tire replacement seems to be a basic fact of life with most carts. The factory 2 plys don't last long, so I've started using ATV tires instead. I haven't tried solid ones, except on my wheel barrows......which previously seemed to be always flat when I needed them.
@@richardanderson2411 - Do you have a source for an atv type tire and wheel that would be a direct replacement?
@@kk5sc Not yet because I haven't had to. For my other carts I measured the axle and went to our local lawn mower/ATV grave yard and looked for a good fit. If going for a single rim wide-tire, spacing on the axle can be changed by making a spacer ending in a greased washer.
It looks like a really nice cart! I really like your product reviews - you put things together while we watch, and you point out both the positives and negatives. And you always give your honest opinion, and that counts for a lot.
Definitely handy to have for lots of uses. Keep the videos coming. Always looking forward to seeing them.
I made mine out of a old grand caravan rear end and a 4x8'- 3/4 " plywood w/ 2x4 ! nice looken rig thou !
Made mine from a broken double bass and an old outboard motor.
VERY nice trailer. Just what you needed.
We have had the dual axle version of this one for about 3 years - tire tread is pealing as though tires are retreads - I'm not sure what we'll do once the tread comes completely off - I would like to switch over to wider ATV type tires. We had a flat on one tire immediately upon receipt and Northern warrantied the tire /wheel - couldn't just provide a tube. Recently we had another flat and hope a tube from Harbor Freight will work... other than that, we like the trailer - it and its chainsaw holders and side mounts have been great on our timber property.
Lol - like a kid at Christmas! You'll get a lot of use out of that. Very nice!
Jeremy can wait to see you use it. Good job and hope it makes it easier and you can fit a lot more in it.
Dont know the first thing about mechanical stuff, but I still enjoyed watching
Had mine for about a month. The bearings are only sealed on the outside for some reason. I used 2- 2 foot chunks of 2×3 steel tube to convert to "walking beam suspension". So much better. I agree about the tires being pretty cheesy. I'll install real hubs, wheels when they give out. For now I've pulled multiple full loads of firewood out of a riverbed. No complaints for the price.
Update. Tires rotting already.
Wow...very nice trailer. I made mine out of spare parts laying around. A riding mower rear end and metal shelving. It works !
Slick rig. Should serve you well. I'm impressed with the versatility of the load area/side ricks. Looks like that tail gate would be OK for a loading ramp, also.
That trailer looks like it's made better than my "DR" trailer. Nice set up Jeremy.
Thank for taking the time to reply...
Kindness your way

very nice! ...and a deer is gonna fit better in that rig.
You should build a shed to park the pallet. That will keep snow off, and you won't have to fool with a tarp. Heck build several pallets so you can stack them under the shed.
Everyone should have one of those good for a lawn tractor too.
Nice hauler. Great company. Also impressed you read the directions 1st, lol.
Nice, like that cart!
I didn't read all your comments, may be someone mentioned it, they do make a Reese hitch to pin connection for the ATV side. Thank you for all the videos you make. I enjoy your channel , I am subscribed.
Very nice. I like that👍🏻👍🏻
Looks nice and heavy duty, really like the add ons to hold equipment.
Have a wonderful evening 🌻🌻🌻
That thing is so cool! They thought of everything! I am so glad y'all have that now. That's a gift that will keep on giving.
Interesting cart. I wonder why they went with dualies instead of one bigger tire on each side. I know its nice if one tire goes flat but if one goes flat you still have something to ride on but I think I would rather have one fatter tire on each side if it were mine. Nice looking cart though, looks super sturdy. :)
Nice video Jeremy!!! Well done! TY
Wow great trailer might have to get one
One cool rig. I'm all for anything that eases the ardureous firewood duties.
nice trailer, Jeremy
It looks like it keeps the weight off the tongue very nicely.
I’d recommend putting a safety wire on the hitch coupler. You seem to use them on the side fence but not the most crucial part. With using it off road it’s bound to catch debris.
If you combined that with a four wheeler you'd have a Jacobsen UV-4. Which is an amazing machine. I know because I own one. Also known as a PUG.
It's a mini articulating 4x4 driven hydraulic dump truck.
Man I would love to have that on my property, I like it. I do need a 1 7/8" hitch though.
Why would that be an issue?
to complete this, how about a report in six months or a year on how it has held up.
good video. now back to the house build. thanks.
Thanks for sharing; great new name for sub-title of channel. I can tell from another comment that the product has other issues; which any buyer should be aware of when purchasing. Hope the productivity is worth it for most people. Peace, Long Life, and Health to all.
Sweet. Handy and looks well built!
Looks like those tires were designed by a committee. It would make SO much more sense to have the grease fittings and the stem on the same side of the tire. If they have a website, I'd probably complain about that design flaw.
Cool beans. Looks like a great little trailer. Only $499.99 on their website, nice
Free shipping right now also, which is good because it comes on a tractor trailer. LTL freight is usually pricey.
Look on craigslist and pick up a used 4×6 trailer for $500 or less
But then again if you get free its better!lol
Cool! Looks like that trailer will hold up for quite a long time.
That should makes hauling chores more efficient..Nice heavy duty cart..not sure about the duelies. I like my carts level lol...
Looks like a great value, heavy duty...and free shipping?! Those tires though...on my AZ property, they would laugh at me and then immediately go flat. Maybe some green slime would help, though I use solid tires now. Cheers! C.
What an awesome little trailer. I’m sure you’ll get some great use from it. Cheers from Australia. Regards, Jeff 👍😀🦘
Awesome! 😀
Very kool
Nice trailer that looks as though it will cut your trips back and forth in half. Hope everyone there is AOK.
i like the way the trailer is made. it appears that they crossed all the t's and dotted all the i's. i am sure it will be put to the test and will perform adequately. have fun while you labor.......g
Looks like you're in business, Jeremy. May you always be safe using your cart! : )
You are going to love that!
That expanded metal bed isn’t going to take a lot of punishment. You’ll probably want to put some plywood on that.
Yeah I’ll cut some PT 3/4” and lay it down
Actually for firewood it holds up better than either of my tractor supply garden carts with solid bottoms (weight tears their thin sheet metal) and it doesn't hold water and rust (my carts get left out a lot). For rocks I'd put in some plywood, but wouldn't leave it in since that would hold water on the metal as well.
That's actually a nice trailer and it's really heavy duty 👍
I like it. Was pleasantly surprised. 👍🏻
@@Guildbrookfarm I hope I am not repeating a question but is the trailer very noisy when pulling it empty.
No not at all
That thing's a tank. FYI...in the future if you have a cotter pin, bend the two sides of the pin in opposite directions to make sure it doesn't get pulled out.
Should come with solid tires. I hate the air ones. Such a pain.
That looks pretty sturdy. Let us know how it holds up after, we have the same type of terrain as y'all do. That could be something to put on my wishlist.
Nice firewood rig and interesting to watch you assemble it..👍
Nice wagon dude
We got dirt!!!
I'd try to find a way to put a bench vise on it. But it seems easy enough to put together.
Awesome!!! You’ll get a lot of use out of that!
Looks like a very handy rig.
Glad to see you’re passion to this project stands - you guys deserve the best
Msn, you get sent some really good stuff as presents! That thing would've been super handy during the massive tree project lol. Still the tools you DID have to test out were really useful too. And you're more likely to use the pick-up poles on a regular basis than 1400lbs at a time. But, building the House you WILL have a lot of heavy loads and it will earn It's keep there. It looks like a man-basket just down low, but you can tell by the sound of the clangs how strong it is.
It doesn’t look like a bad design. But it needs ATV tires on it and more ground clearance.
Cool.
"Cool!" 😉
All you need now is mount a tool box and a cooler on the front.
Sweet!!
Hope all is well
Could you fill the tyers with puncture repair foam from the start to prevent punctures if they occur?? Not sure just a thought.?? or some other way of making them puncture-proof.What's your thoughts on the saw you have after use seems great??
Yes you can “slime” the tires to help if the get punctured. The electric saw is great. I use it a lot.
Awesome job making your dreams come true keep up the great work
Jeremy & Jamie: have you done a video about your four wheeler? Is it a Yamaha? I would be very interested in hearing your feedback & recommendations about its capabilities and limitations. Especially when it comes to felling trees and hauling away wood and debris. And how does it do on non- flat terrain, and in brushy areas or tall grass? What about undercarriage clearance (do you get hung up easily?)? What about tires? Have you stuck with the factory tires or did you buy specialist tires? We’re preparing to start about 1-1/2 to 2 years work clearing and rehabilitating a large, mature, severely overgrown orchard in Hawaii and want to make the right vehicle purchase. I know you’re all hell bent for leather working on your beautiful house, but if you could put a four-wheeler trailer review on your content production schedule, I’d be very grateful! Thank you :)
I have thought about making that video and didn’t know if there would be much interest from the audience. I’ll add it to the list 👍🏻
Guildbrook Farm - Simple Sustainable Living wonderful, thank you! 😊
is there a snowgoing skid i can use to replace the wheels during winter ?
Do you know about the roof razor? Some folks make their own.
Pretty awesome
Love this , wow good job y all
Assembly:Tools - "In place of hammer, a shod foot may be utilized." : )
Hey i have that same trailer lol
When all else fails, just kick it!😁😁😁
Right on!
I would be willing to bet that the wheel bearings are sealed, so adding grease at regular intervals will actually do more damage than good
If they are sealed, you can't grease them anyway.
@@MrThenry1988 if you pack the whole hub full of grease, you'll create extra heat and can cause premature failure.
@@joncutt872 ain't like it's going down the freeway at 70 mph. Lol. Just saying if the bearings are sealed, greasing won't hurt or help. Tapered bearings with a seal needs greased.
Most likely to keep the hubs and shafts greased and water out.
Shouldn't you have put a pin through your 2" ball adapter after you backed up your quad and closed the hitch over your 2"ball on you quad to keep it from coming uncoupled??
Nah. It’s not goin anywhere.
Badda bing badda boom ~8^) Take care Guildbrooksters.
Nice trailer, agree that the grease zerks don’t seem well thought out, maybe northern is trying to sell you an extension shaft for the grease gun to reach in between, have to check the catalog.
After a season of heavy use (22 cord), I checked the grease and it was still the same as when new. With the amount of grease this holds, it should be a very long time between greasings unless you run it through a lot of water.
I have a gorilla cart what I like most about this one is it will be much easier to back up which is pretty much impossible with the gorilla cart
😂 Yeah there is no backing up a gorilla cart. This trailer backs up like a normal trailer should.
Not understanding why the grease zerks couldn' t be on the same side of each tire as the air valve...
Me either 🤷🏻♂️
You can pretty much bet that the rims were an off-the-shelf item not designed for this cart. Still it really is a non issue considering how often you don't have to grease it. you likely will have the tire off to fix punctures multiple times before you have to worry about grease. The tires are the weak point and when I get tired of dealing with it I'll just put different ones on it. All of my older carts have all had their el cheapo tires replaced with ATV tires, so dealing with changing rims/tires is no biggie for me. We've had our farm for 26 years and use carts multiple times a day and I've yet to retire one....I just keep fixing them.
Then drill out on an angle the hub on the same side as the tire air fittings and your good to go :-)))
Filling the entire hub full of grease is a mistake. The wheels are now overlubricated. Maybe 5 pumps per wheel is enough. I spent over 20 years in the lubrication industry and this a common mistake.
is this a better value than a used utv I was wondering because I would like to keep costs low and an atv with a trailer should be enough for what I do
Definitely
Are you making a statement or asking a question?
You happen to have a link to the coupler?
It’s in the video description under RESOURCES
👍👍👍😃✌️
what no side-arm today????
Personally i would like it to be a double axel rather that a dully but nevertheless it’s still a good piece of equipment.
They make a double axel version
😊👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻
Go check out donny diy's channel and see the modifications he has done to the atv trailer he has for wood cutting
You said it was sold by Northern Tool ... But you didn’t state the country of origin. From what I personally think are design flaws, I have to question whether this is another Chinese product.
Arthur Leslie family owned American business.
Elexus T ... That has nothing to do with ‘where’ the product was actually designed and manufactured.
Arthur Leslie That is true.
All the Bannon utility trailers are China made, thats why the tires are odd size and junk. After reading some of the reviews, it seems that the tires are a major complaint.
Grimrpr6942 Thanks for the information 👍
Nice trailer; the wheels are a bit strange. I don't suppose they could put both the valve stem and the grease nipple 180° apart on the same side of the wheel, or use a standard sized wheel. This is where the value of playing Tetris becomes apparent. Those wheels remind me of that old (what was it, a Pinto? a Vega? I can't remember anymore) car you had to pull the engine to change the oil. Terrible design.
What about a cant hook or log peavey? At least up here in the PNW, I'd want another long tool holder for my cant hook. Simeon over at Swedish Homestead has a can hook/peavey/log stand 3:1 tool, if I remember rightly.
The LogOx is a cant hook broken down into 2 pieces. (In the bag)
Smsll minor annoyances. I like it and would use it.
Nice !
Welcome to 2022: this trailer is now $800 (vs $500 when this video was filmed) and they’ve stripped away all the tool holding accessories.
Chinese rattletrap.
Have a better option?
Real "man" don't read the manual. He assembles it croocked with "extra parts".
nope my mistake, I should have waited till the end, my bad
They sure made it heavy duty yes I don’t understand the poor tire concept and they could’ve just went with one bigger tire they made the whole tire system a real pain in the ass to do maintenance
