lol yeah its not to bad.. pretty use to it by now... im going to use two hand winches to lower and raise it ... so what i did here was take and hub from another trailer and cut it up and smooth it and center it in the frame and use the axle that came with it as my pivot point which should be very strong and should last for ever...

If you have the skill to to do that kinda of work get that wood out of the frame. The steel will out last the wood and then what are you going to do when the wood is bad.
