An improved trailer comprising a main structural assembly having A. An offset axle with two ends, B. A first wheel mounted directly on one end of said offset axle and another wheel mounted directly on the remaining end of said offset axle, C. A frame assembly having a tongue portion, rearward extensions of said tongue portion and a rear member connecting said tongue portion and rearward extensions into a semi-rigid frame, said rear member having a portion adapted to form one portion of a hinge, and D. A pair of springs, one of said pair providing a pivotable connection between one of said rearward extensions and a non-offset portion of said offset axle immediately adjacent one of said wheels and the other of said pair of springs providing a pivotable connection between the other of said rearward extensions and a non-offset portion of said offset axle immediately adjacent the other of said wheels, the locations of said pivotable connections being a predetermined distance forward of said rear member to form a lever, the fulcrum of said lever being located at said pivotable connections with said axle; a main load supporting assembly having A. A main load-supporting member, B. A transverse support member, and C. A rear portion adapted to form another portion of said hinge, said hinge pivotably connecting said rear portion with said rear member; and means including said axle when acting as a fulcrum effective when the forward end of said main structural assembly is in its lowered position to position said main load supporting assembly in a raised condition and when in its raised position to position said main load supporting assembly in a lowered position parallel to and in contact with the ground.
