I am in the process of building a trailer. Frame is 32" x 48". Body will be 34"x 54"x 24" tall. I am thinking of using a tongue that will be 40" beyond the front of the trailer. Does this sound about right? I want to use1.5" square tubing for the tongue but I cannot find a coupler for anything smaller than for 2" tubing. I know I can us spacers but didn't really want to. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

I waited until Harbor Freight had the 12" trailer kit on sale ($159 I think...), bought it, and stored it until I was ready to build it. Was a few days before my long trip, so I kinda threw it together, making changes as I went along.

Howdy from San Marcos! you and Bagmaster have some pretty snazzy looking trailers... are they home-made? If so... can you direct me to where you found the axle and spring assemblies?

Mines built on a Harbor Freight trailer kit, cut down to custom size and frame all welded by my brother instead of bolting it together. It's the 12" wheel version which is still on sale for 2 more days for $199.99.
