I have no experience with Miska but I see a lot of them in my neighborhood and they look great. I've dealt with Kangaroo before and have always had a positive experience.

Small trailers?
- Thread starter mimico_polak
- Start date
I was hoping for the HF but COVID, the weak CAD and all else considered it wasn’t much better than what I can get here. I think the 4x8’ folding start at $721, and the larger once’s are $850 or so.
Anyway have a few trailers to look at today set up so we will see.

Alright let’s see how this thing serves its purpose.
Had a GTAM contact me with a price which I felt was fair and it’s in my van now.
Now how the eff do I register this thing by the weekend?

Does it have lights ?
Anybody know where I can get a trailer tire mounted on a rim? Trailer came with a spare off rim and when I called some tire shops their machines won’t go down to the 8” size to mount.
Generally not worth the hassle for the little wheels. Just buy a new tire+rim combo
Throw it out and buy one already mounted. I've tried before and those small rims are a nightmare and I normally end up pinching the tube. Spare wheel/tire/tube is <$50.
Good call. Might just buy 2 new tires and keep the existing as spares.
Also considering upgrading the lighting to LED waterproof type.

Call J&D Tire in Milton. Great guys for car tires too.
My buddy owns the shop.
Tell them I sent you and they will get it done for you
Or as others said get a new set. .
Princess auto has good LED kits.
Waterproof shouldn't really matter. They matter when it is a boat trailer being dunked in the lake. I put LED's on my HF trailer and now my homemade light controller that uses a conventional flasher isn't very happy as they don't draw enough. Any modern controller shouldn't care.
Thanks guy. Always a voice of reason!
If I end up replacing them would it make sense to go to a 12” instead of 8”? May go for smoother runs and longer life.

Would they fit (bolt spacing and fender clearance)? They'd raise the height a bit which is undesirable but they'd roll better.

They might, but the one kit that looked like a direct replacement for the OEM TIAB's was made of really brittle plastic that broke within an hour of being mounted. This trailer has no suspension, which probably contributed to the failure. I'm now using their LED strip lighting kit meant for hitch mounted carriers.
They’re 4 bolt wheels so would have to check as I don’t know much about these wheel types.
fenders comes off with a single pin so not too worried as I can run without the fenders.
I would try to leave the fenders on.
If needed refit the fender with new brackets if needed.
