Features & Benefits
Complete 7′ x 20′ Car Hauler Build Package
This Master Kit brings together the major components needed for a 7′ x 20′ vehicle transport trailer, including the running gear, loading ramps, electrical system, braking components, towing hardware, cargo securement points, and fabrication hardware.
7,000 lb Combined Axle Capacity
Two 3,500 lb axles provide a combined axle capacity of 7,000 lbs, creating a solid foundation for a tandem axle car hauler build.
Idler & Electric Brake Axle Combination
The kit includes one idler axle and one electric brake axle, providing trailer braking capability when connected to a properly equipped tow vehicle and brake controller.
95/80 Axle Configuration
Both axles feature a 95-inch hub face and 80-inch spring center, providing the wider axle configuration required for the 7-foot-wide car hauler platform.
Car Hauler Ramps Included
Two loading ramps are included to provide vehicle access to the trailer deck. Hitch pins and pin retainers are also included as part of the ramp mounting and retention system.
Four D-Ring Tie-Down Points
Four heavy-duty D-rings provide dedicated cargo securement locations for properly restraining vehicles and other loads during transport.
Complete Tandem Suspension System
The axles, springs, U-bolt hardware, and tandem axle hanger kit provide the core suspension components needed to support the full tandem axle assembly.
Four ST205/75R15 Tires & Wheels
Four ST205/75R15 5-lug trailer tire and wheel assemblies are included along with the required lug nuts, giving you a complete wheel package for the trailer.
Tandem Fenders & Fender Steps
Smooth rolled tandem fenders, fender backs, and left/right fender steps help provide proper wheel coverage and easier access around the trailer deck.
2-5/16″ Trailer Coupler
The included 2-5/16″ coupler provides a heavier-duty towing connection appropriate for this car hauler configuration.
Electric Brake Wiring & Breakaway System
A 7-way trailer plug, 50 feet of color-coded wiring, electric brake axle, and breakaway kit provide the primary components needed for the trailer braking system.
Complete LED Lighting Package
LED tail lights, four amber side marker lights, a three-light identification bar, license plate bracket, and light brackets provide the main trailer lighting components.

Why Choose a Car Hauler Master Kit?
A car hauler requires more than standard trailer running gear. In addition to the axles, suspension, wheels, and towing hardware, you also need ramps, cargo securement points, electric braking components, wiring, lighting, and specialized fabrication pieces.
This Master Kit combines those major systems into one coordinated package, giving you a much clearer path from raw steel to a completed 7′ x 20′ car hauler.

The 7,000 lb combined axle rating does not automatically mean the completed trailer is rated for 7,000 lbs of payload. Final trailer capacity and legal GVWR depend on the completed trailer design and the lowest-rated component in the assembly, including the frame, suspension, tires, wheels, coupler, brakes, and other hardware.
