Abstract

A trailer has an improved trailer frame that results in a trailer that has the same width as previous trailers on the same axle without the necessity of wheel wells. The height of the trailer above a supporting surface is also the same as previously. The interior of the trailer is a rectangular box with no obstructions. The trailer is constructed by using side brackets with outwardly extending lips that support the side walls beyond the axle brackets and above the axle arms of the axle. The axle is a rubber torsion axle.
