fixed car axle trailer
i picked up a 90 buick yesterday. and it has a straight drag behind axle. the car is front wheel drive. if you were to make a trailer out of that axle what would you use it for? what would you build it to use for? a lawn mower trailer? it would sit close enough to the ground for that purpose i guess. what else? any ideas?

Re: fixed car axle trailer
Make a small trash trailer out of it, or a small flatbed to haul a quad?

I'm sorry if I ask lots of questions, there's just a lot of stuff I don't know (yet).

Re: fixed car axle trailer
I'd build a 5x10 trailer, and use it for four-wheelers/dirt-bikes/lawnmowers/lumber whatever you could use it for really 
, that or build it for some busy work and sell it and make a few bucks
