I need a wheel setup like that on my medium.

It makes it much easier to handle and I don't worry about it tipping over.

Dont you almost have to have larger wheels to get it up and down any sort of ramp? I have been brainstorming how to move my Pitmaker Safe around. As high of a center of gravity that it has I would be really worried about moving it up and down a ramp. Not to mention it would take 2-3 guys to push it up the ramp.

On another note in my first comp I used a UHaul enclosed and atnight used it as a camper complete with an air matress and window a/c unit that kept the trailer a cool 68 degrees alnight.....

Golf cart wheels have more than enough weight capacity for the large Spicewine much less the Pitmaker Safe. Rolls up the ramp like a breeze.

Make the cart a little wider and longer to add some storage and shelf capacity while taking away the top heavy nature of your Pitmaker.

Mount a winch inside the trailer. Goes up no problem

We do the same thing with our enclosed as do many competition teams. It's worth the investment to buy a good used enclosed trailer and fix it up the way you need it.

That's one cool looking smoker LSR! What's that diamond plate made of? No rust issues?

Aluminum deck plate and no rust issues. It always looks brand new!
