    Question Trailer Dolly?


    Family and I have finally finished selling our old home and moved. I have lost the battle for parking the boat in the upstairs garage bc the wife refuses to park outside or maneuver into the downstairs garage . My boat is currently garaged at my mothers. Luckily I have some land off the driveway to clear so I can put a carport or metal garage in. I would still like to dolly my boat in the downstairs garage when the weather gets cold, the driveway does not allow me to back it in hitched to my vehicle. The concrete pad is level so i assume pulling it in wont be to big of an issue but idk. any suggestions on trailer dolling a boat and where to get a good dolly? I have a tracker tv-18 its a decent size bass boat but aluminium.

    My dad had a trailer tongue mounted on the front of his truck for that reason.
    God bless Charlie Brewer and Bobby Garland.

    I was going to suggest a trailer ball on the front,,,, I bought a two wheel trailer dolly from Harbor Freight (i think) and it works great, Only thing I do not like about it is you have to lower the trailer down to engage the ball,, been thinking about getting a riser for the dolly,,,

    Yard big enough for a lawn tractor? Ball in front or back and mow the yard too.
    The fishing was so good I thought it was yesterday

    Default Trailer Dolly?

    I put a front hitch on my F250. Had to get a 8" rise receiver and use a I-Ball hitch camera to line up on the ball. Had to notch the lower air deflector. Very clean install you have to really look to see the hitch. I can push my Stratos through a 10' garage door at an apartment complex.

    What area are you in. I need to go check out and see if I can get to it, but I have a two wheel trailer dolly I would sell. I even put a riser on it so I would not have to lower my tongue so much. message me on here and we can come up with a price.

    I got a hitch on the front of my Zero-turn mower i move my Ranger around with. works great
    There will be days when the fishing is better than one's most optimistic forecast, others when it is far worse. Either is a gain over just staying home.
