#HaulMasterTrailerCart
What's up guys/gals,
So I have been wanting to get a mower cart for a while and couldn't decided whether to build one or get a used one or buy new. I couldn't find any used mower trailer carts, so I started my research. Most of the mower trailer carts I found were over $200 except for Harbor Freight. HF had their mower trailer cart listed at $129 and it peaked my interest. I liked the fact that it was made of metal, had big wheels and the cart titled for dumping action. I had to check it out. My concerns were that it might be flimsy, made out of thin metal or not be capable of handling some heavier yard work like hauling dirt of small boulders/rocks.
In this video I walk you through a review of my experience so far with this mower trailer cart. I go over installation, quality, and performance. All in all, I am happy with this trailer cart and for the money it's a pretty good deal.

Good review, using wood to line the inside is a great idea. Protects and adds strength. I have a two wheel utility/garden/cart/trailer, not sure the brand, cant remember. Had and used the thing for over 35 years. Best money I've ever spent.

They definitely come in handy. Mine is starting to chip on the inside, but doesn’t really bother me. Can always spray paint it too.

The tire is rated for 450 and that's one side. So it's 900# capacity for the two tires and the 600# load capacity stays below that.

Thanks for the review - Nice info and tips. I just ordered this same cart from Harbor Freight and it will be delivered in a few days. This helped a lot. Thanks again.

@TrueGritDevelopment Жыл бұрын

Glad to hear it. I did notice paint chipping as of late, but that doesn’t bother me personally. I can always spray it back if with restoleum. Have fun with it 👊🏼

Nice video. I mounted a handle just above the bed release on the front panel. Get a nice big handle with large fasteners and washers.

Great video...I think it's probably 450lb is per tire and the axle is what's rated at 600lb. Thanks for the very thorough review.

U bet. She’s still going strong. Some paint chipping on the inside, but I leave it out under my deck. Thanks for the positive feedback 👊🏼

I have the same cart 20+ years old. Looks like they have made a couple of improvements The only thing I have had trouble with is the tires..

@TrueGritDevelopment 9 ай бұрын

Wow 20 yrs! That’s amazing. So far so good except paint chipping. Doesn’t bother me much, but sucks that is started peeling this soon.

I haven't put mine together yet I'm kinda dreading it. It sounds like a good idea about putting boards inside the trailer

@TrueGritDevelopment Ай бұрын

It’s not too bad. The boards make a big difference. Good luck 👍🏼

@peteturcotte262 3 ай бұрын

Nice video. Just can’t make sense of the comment about if a tire goes flat the bead rolled sheet metal won’t hold up. Not understanding the logic there. Also it looks like 18 or 16 gauge sheet metal not 1/16

These need hydraulic pistons like ones used for tailgates to slow down the cart from flying up when tipping it.

If it ain’t broke, just give it a paint job 👊🏼

If it wasn't for the process of putting it together it would be a great deal what time is money I guess I'd rather spend three times as much and get something more durable that I don't have to fiddle with for over an hour

My brother bought me the exact one! I love it and those two annoyances were exactly as stated. I did add sides to mine since I don’t really dump a lot. I added wood snd pvc pipe holders to hold my rakes, shovels, weed whacker, etc. I added a little handle to the tilt lever as an extension to raise it up higher. I smacked my face on the back bracket of my mower while reaching down. I want a better way to attach to my mower because I hate the pin for fear of smacking my face again. I also hate the backing up and the cart doesn’t cooperate. Any suggestions for that I’m open!

@TrueGritDevelopment Жыл бұрын

Oh man, I smacked my head once too! That’s funny. Unfortunately, I don’t think there is any way around using a pin to secure the cart. You just have to practice backing up with the cart. I’ve learned it’s much easier when you go slow as you back up.

My A frame doesn't line up with the latch that well. I have to pull ot forward a little bit to get it to seat

@TrueGritDevelopment Жыл бұрын

Same. I’ve also noticed some paint chipping, so you’ll prob have same issue. Didn’t bother me really, figured I can always spray paint it with restoleum if I feel the need.

How’d you get the decking not to fall when you dump?

@TrueGritDevelopment 2 ай бұрын

I put them across. There is a a little lip that will stop them from falling off.

How did you get the decking to stay when using the dump feature. Cheers.

@TrueGritDevelopment Жыл бұрын

Hi, I cut them snug and there is about a 1” lip on the inside of the bottom corner of each side of the box that will keep your decking in place. You will have to align it across the box like I did. Hope that makes sense. I should have pointed that out when making the video. Thanks for watching 👊🏼

I wonder how easy it would be to install an electric linear actuator to do the dumping

@TrueGritDevelopment Жыл бұрын

That sounds pretty cool. Battery powered, right? If I have time, I may look into that. The bucket can get heavy, so it would have to be a bigger battery.

@BrFishWPB Жыл бұрын

@True Grit Development you could run a cable to the lawn tractor and use the 12v from it. Many people have added front loaders to the tractors the same way, either electric or hydraulic actuators using the onboard 12v system

That went right over my head, didn’t even think about that. Thanks for the tip, I’ll definitely look into it 👊🏼

Just put one of these together, and i gotta say the hardware that comes with these is junk! Never stripped so many nuts in my life using a flathead screwdriver. There's extras of course, but I used them up. Gotta few loose ones... I don't think the bolts and the nuts have the same thread pitch lol

Dang…maybe you got a bad batch. I don’t recall having a similar issue. Then again it’s Harbor Freight. Thanks for watching 👊🏼
