A couple of dealers have suggested a single axle 14ft heavy duty angle iron trailer , one even said a 12 ft one would do the job just fine. Plain Jane without brakes rated to haul 4500 lbs total.

Has anyone used a single axle trailer versus a tandum trailer to haul their A? If so did you feel comfortable? I am leaning more towards a 14ft heavy duty angle with a bulldog hitch. All comments and suggests welcomed. Thanks in Advance.
I have a 14' homemade trailer with two mobile home axles with electric brakes. I've trailered T's, an A, a Fifty seven Chevy and a '97 Blazer with it with very few problems (the '57 got a little squirrelly on the interstate due to weight distribution issues, but slowing down to 50 mph helped). I tow with a V-6 Blazer with over 200,000 miles on it. Get brakes. You may not need them all the time, but when you do, you're glad you had them!
