The ONLY diff in a Bullet trailer and a Cafe/TG trailer should be length ! They weigh darn near the same. Bullets are a 8'6"
Beam and VERY heavy for a 31
I have pics of my bullet on the trailer Eagle made for me with
3 7500lb Dexter axles. I cant post pics here anymore though.
PM me your e-mail and i will send some to show Axle position.

Finally spoke to who trailer was bought from and he is sending me a taller winch stand and will pay for the labor of moving the axles back. Moving them back somewhere around 12", which should give me around 750 lbs. on the tongue.

Update!!! Had axles moved back 10" by local trailer dealer and it goes down the road sooo much better. Contacted Rocky, who used to own Fastload (wife now owns it after divorce), and he now builds trailers under the name of Boat Trailers Direct to no avail. He claims to not have any money after his divorce but he did start a new business under his new wife's name. I may have to eat the $750 that it cost me and some of my personal time to get this trailer to work right for my boat, but I am also letting it be known what kind of business he runs.
