Re: Trailer for golf cart
Nothing wrong with the trailer you describe. Be careful towing a cart backward, seat etc. may blow up. Use it a while and see how mesh holds up. I don't think you need lumber underneath. If you have a problem in the future bolt plywood to the floor.

Re: Trailer for golf cart
Also when towing cart backwards on trailer you need to pull the windshield off (if you have one) while towing or you may not have a windshield when you reach your destination. I might have made that mistake once lol.

Re: Trailer for golf cart
Remove the windshield and the front seat bottom when pulling a cart backwards. Since it does have a rear seat kit, you could leave the front seat bottom on and use a bungee cord to lock the hip restraint to the rear seat kit so it won't blow out. I haul 2 carts at a time on my 16' trailer so I have to load the front one backwards.

Re: Trailer for golf cart
Thank you for all the replies. I use my golf cart at a seasonal campground and when the campground closes for the season I want to bring my cart home and put it in my garage. I could borrow a trailer to bring it home but then next spring I would have to borrow a trailer again to take it back to the campground. It would be nice if I had my own trailer. My wife says why buy one if I can borrow one.

Re: Trailer for golf cart
That's one of the issues with a little used trailer. You have to have somewhere to store it when it's not in use.

Re: Trailer for golf cart
This is a new trailer that I'm looking at. I can store it in my backyard but I need to be able to move it by hand when I mow. Another problem is that my wife says why buy one if I can borrow one. It can be a pain trying to find one to borrow.

Re: Trailer for golf cart
Just tell the wife it will come in handy more than she realizes. Buying furniture, runs to Home Depot, etc.

Re: Trailer for golf cart
Yes. And not to mention paying loads for friends and neighbors! That is why I mentioned getting a slightly bigger and better payload than just to haul a golf cart. Trailer might even pay for itself.

Re: Trailer for golf cart
Toolmaker Bob I bought one from them the same size, It's gvwr was 2000# made by Carryon. I bolted a sheet of 1/2in. plywood to the frame and screwed a old sheet of 3/4 to it. I paid $599 on sale and a couple months later just before winter it was $499. the only thing I see "wrong" with it is the tailgate/ramp don't come off and the mesh on the ramp welds are starting to break on the edges. The plywood not only added weight it made it rigid.
