I just wanted to show how my DIY Kayak trailer project turned out. Use regular strut instead of the shallow strut.
Please watch the entire video. I started out with pictures, but I switch to video. I also show the products I used in the video
Update: 12122017,
Kayak trailer is going strong. Everything is holding up great. The trailer is garaged when not in use which helps in longevity. The square trailer light guards already paid for themselves. No damage to my lights.
UPDATE on 41918.
I made a few modifications. I removed some metal and added some 90 degree angled pipe to protect the kayaks from loading and unloading.

If you use any links below, i get a little kickback. It will help my channel out a lot. thank you in advance. Make sure you check the specs and that it fits your application before ordering. products change all the time.
Here's some Amazon parts options:
These are the lights I bought. The Lights themselves are doing well. But to be transparent, the wiring turned to powder after one year. If you clock on the link and take a look at the item, I believe I still get commission if you look for an updated LED light. Not sure. Always check the review especially about the wiring.

The gear I used on my trailers were from Red Trailer and I believe they went out of business. The Amazon links below are some similar one's but I haven't actually tried them.
