Multipurpose Trailer Hauls Different Types of Boats and Cargo

MPG535 In Use

This heavy-duty trailer with 78" crossbars has extensive space to mount accessories like watersport carriers, bike racks, a fishing rod carrier, or a cargo box (sold separately). With a 7-1/2' long tongue, this trailer offers exceptional clearance during tight turns. The extended tongue also makes it easier to back up the trailer and prevent binding than trailers with shorter tongues.


Compact, Vertical Storage

MPG460XT retractable tongue

This MicroSportXT trailer has a retractable tongue and rubber bumpers, allowing you to store the trailer vertically.


mpg460xt pin removed

To retract the tongue, remove the metal pin and clip holding the tongue in place and disconnect the wiring harness that runs through the tongue.


mpg460xt tongue pinned

Then, push the tongue towards the back of the trailer until it is aligned with the bracket mounted on the rear cross member. Finally, slide the tongue on the bracket and place the pin and clip in the aligned holes to secure the tongue in place.


mpg460xt rubber bumper

With a smaller footprint, you can stand the trailer upright, using the rubber bumpers attached to the rear cross member to support the trailer's weight.


Submersible LED Trailer Lights

MPG535 LED tail lights

The DOT-approved tail lights on this trailer are fully submersible, so you don't have to worry about damaging the lights when loading and unloading your boat in water. Each tail light has brake, running light, and turn signal functions, as well as side marker lights and reflectors. In addition, these LED lights last longer, burn brighter, and require less power than incandescent bulbs.


Plug-and-Play Trailer Wiring

CE48870 main harness to 4-way

The wiring for this trailer has a simple plug-and-play design, so it doesn't require any cutting or splicing to install. As you assemble the trailer, route the main wiring harness through the trailer tongue and down towards the body of the trailer. Then plug the 4-wire end of the tail light harness into the main harness.


CE48870 4-way plug

Run the wires of the tail light harness along the sides of the trailer frame and plug the individual wires into the matching wires on the side marker lights and the tail lights. The wires are color-coded so that you can easily match them up - no circuit tester is required. Once all of the wires are plugged in, use the included clips to secure the harness to the frame.


CE48870 4-way plug

When you're ready to connect the trailer to your vehicle, simply plug the trailer end of the main harness into the 4-way flat connector on your vehicle.


Leaf Spring Suspension

MPG535 leaf spring suspension

This trailer includes a leaf spring suspension system to limit road shock while you tow. A sturdy steel axle runs beneath the trailer frame. The 2 slipper springs that support the axle flex to absorb the rough motion that can occur when driving over bumpy terrain. Also, the axle, spring hangers, and tie plate are galvanized to resist rust and corrosion.


Quick and Easy Trailer Hookup

MPG535 trigger style coupler

Hooking this trailer to your vehicle is quick and easy. The trailer's coupler connects to a 2" hitch ball, and the included safety chains act as an emergency measure if the coupler accidentally disconnects from your hitch ball. A rubber coated lift handle is mounted to the coupler to provide a solid grip for lifting or maneuvering the trailer. Finally, the skid plate on the underside of the trailer tongue keeps the coupler from touching the ground.

Easy to assemble with minimal tools. Grandkids Ivan and Jeanette did the work, grandpa checked mechanical integrity. Ready to go and play by the afternoon.

The trailer assembly was easy. The most difficult part, if any, was centering the support bars. We just wish it was 'Made in the USA' instead of China. etrailer expediently shipped the (4 total) packages. We were pleasantly surprised how quickly we received them. FYI: The registration documents are mailed separately. We look forward to loading up our kayaks and going fishing. Cheers!

Nice trailer... easy to assemble... reminded me of a full size Mysto Manufacturing Company Erector set from my childhood. Instructions were clear... everything made sense.



by:

Excellent is an understatement. Very easy to order on line. All questions answered without hesitation. Product shipped and was received in a timely fashion. Great company



by:

Product was as advertised, however it was missing four bolts that I had to get at a hardware store, but other than that it was fine. Service from etrailer team was outstanding.



by:

Sliding tongue and ability to store vertically against garage wall is great and very easy to do. Use trailer to haul a pair of 14 foot sit on top kayaks; hauls them well and is easy to load and tie down the kayaks.

  • Best Trailer for a Native Watercraft Titan Propel 13.5 Kayak
    The best trailer we have for your Native Watercraft Titan Propel 13.5 kayak is the Malone MicroSportXT Trailer part # MPG460XT. This trailer comes with everything you need to hit the road with your 2013 BMW 5 Series assuming you already have a wiring harness, ball mount, and hitch ball. If you need any of those items please let me know and I would be happy to recommend them. The trailer has a 375 lb weight capacity, retractable tongue for easy storage, and a five year warranty.

  • Will Sea Eagle Skiff Fit on a Malone MicroSportXT Trailer?
    Hey Ander, thanks for reaching out! The Malone MicroSportXT Trailer # MPG460XT can handle up to 20' long boats so you just need to add the Bunk Kit # MPG561 and you'll be good to go! Where do you plan on fishing at this year? Any big fishing trips you're planning out?

  • How Much Space Does Retractable Tongue of Malone MicroSport Trailer Save
    I believe you were referencing the length of the Malone MicroSportXT Trailer # MPG460XT in regards to the retractable tongue kit (though you were likely thinking height in terms of storage, which would be completely understandable). The retractable tongue kit on this trailer decreases the length by a full 61 inches; the trailer's normal length is 13 feet 3 inches but when the tongue is retracted it is 8 feet, 2 inches (98 inches). The MicroSportXT Trailer # MPG460XT will also be just...

  • Parts Needed to Convert Malone MicroSport to LowBed
    Hey Stefano, yes the LowBed kit part # MAL33TR is all that you need to convert your Malone Microsport # MPG460XT to a LowBed style trailer. The Yakima DeepSpace part # Y65RR is also compatible with the 2nd Tier Kit part # MPG474 too. How come you are wanting to convert to the Low Bed setup?

  • Carrying 4 Kayaks and Storage Trunk on Malone MicroSportXT Kayak Trailer
    Along with the MicroSportXT # MPG460XT you could simply add 4 of the Malone J-Pro2 Kayak Carrier # MPG117MD. You may want to consider a more economical option with the Malone MicroSport Trailer with J-Pro Kayak Carriers # MPG462G2 and add Storage Trunk for Malone MicroSport and XtraLight Trailers # MPG481. The Microsport with J-Pro Carriers comes with the ability to carry 4 kayaks, has a 375 lbs capacity, measures 164" long x 65" wide and has a coupler that attaches to a 2" hitch ball....

  • How To Carry Bikes On a Malone MicroSportXT Trailer # MPG460XT
    Malone has their Pilot Trailer Bike Rack # MPG2100 which will fit the Malone MicroSportXT Trailer # MPG460XT but do know this can only carry bikes up to 33lbs. The Yakima FrontLoader # Y02103 has one of the highest capacities at 40lbs per bike which will fit the crossbar spread capabilities of the MicroSportXT trailer. If your bikes weigh more than this with the batteries and any other removable components removed you will have to consider other options for carrying your bikes.

  • Higher Speed Rating Tire for Malone MicroSport Trailer # MPG460XT
    Hey Stefano, you can change the current tires on the Malone MicroSport Trailer # MPG460XT to a Taskmaster 4.80R12 Radial Trailer Tire # TT48012C for a higher speed rating. You can mount these on your current wheels as well. These are rated for 81 mph. Were you wanting new wheels as well?

  • What is Difference Between Between Microsport and Ecolight Malone Trailer
    The big difference between the two trailers is the EcoLight trailers like part # MAL43FR were made to be lighter weight for smaller vehicles and have lower weight capacities. This weighs 145 lbs and has a 400 lb capacity whereas the MicroSport # MPG461KB weighs 240 lbs and has an 800 lb capacity. So it comes down to what you are looking to carry and your tow vehicle which would make most sense to go with. The XT model part # MPG460XT only has the retractable tongue.

  • Can Spare Be Carried on Malone MicroSportXT Trailer # MPG460XT
    I attached a picture that shows where the spare part # MPG465 would mount on the Malone MicroSportXT Trailer # MPG460XT that has a retractable tongue. The crossbar spread for this is between 44 and 63 inches normally which might get slightly reduced when carrying the spare, but in most cases there's no need for that much of a spread.

  • Hardware Needed to Install the Malone MicroSport to LowBed Trailer Conversion Support Tubes
    The Malone MicroSport to LowBed Trailer Conversion Support Tubes # MAL33TR will use the same u-bolts and hardware already on your Malone MicroSport Trailer. The conversion kits work with the Malone MicroSportXT Trailer # MPG460XT, Malone MicroSport Trailer # MPG460G and as replacement tubes for the Malone LowBed MicroSport Trailer # MPG464-LB. If you have a different MicroSport trailer, this would not be the correct conversion kit.

  • Adding Rollers, a Winch, and Straps to a Malone MicroSportXT
    We have all of the components you are looking for to turn your MicroSportXT, part # MPG460XT, into a mini boat trailer! For your rollers, I recommend the Dutton-Lainson Boat Trailer Deluxe Roller Bunk, part # DL21741. They have a 5' span so they will reach across your crossbars. To mount these, use the Boat Trailer Roller Bunk Bracket, part # DL21742. I've linked to a video installation of both of these for you to look at. Please note that you will need to find a 1-1/4" u-bolt and mounting...

  • Recommended Rack and Roll Trailer for Kayaks and Bikes
    The Yakima Rack and Roll Trailer - 66" # Y08106 or 78" # Y08107 ride very well at highway speeds on long trips. These 16 inch wheels work very well at any posted highway speed in favorable conditions. Just like any trailer, you want to slow down in conditions with excessive water, snow or ice, and extreme wind. We have had very happy customers with these trailers as you can see in the customer reviews and have not had any issues with the tires. This trailer has been on the market for...

  • Is There Kayak Trailer with Retractable Tongue
    Hey Scotty, the tongue of the Yakima LowRider part # Y82QD does not have ability to fold or retract. BUT we do have the Malone MicroSportXT Trailer # MPG460XT that does have a retractable tongue. It also can carry boats up to 20 feet in length and has a similar capacity of 800 lb.

  • Will The Malone Trailer Tongue Kickstand Work With The Retractable Tongue Kit?
    The Retractable Tongue Kit for Malone MicroSport Trailers # MPG494 is designed to replace a damaged tongue on a MicroSportXT # MPG460XT, or to upgrade the tongue on a Malone MicroSport Trailer # MPG460G. Both of these trailers have an overall length of 13' 3" long, but when # MPG494 is installed, reduces the length to 8' 2". The 20' you're referring to, has to do with the maximum boat length that'll fit on the trailer. Also, the Trailer Tongue Kickstand for Malone Trailers # MPG467 will...

  • Comparing Yakima Rack and Roll vs Malone Microsport XT for Carrying Two Kayaks
    Both the Yakima Rack and Roll Trailer # Y08107 and Malone MicroSportXT Trailer # MPG460XT will work for you to carry your two Hobie kayaks, but I recommend the MicroSport XT because it is the better value of the two trailers. The biggest difference between the two trailers is that the Rack and Roll has independent suspension, while the MicroSportXT has a leaf spring suspension. This is going to give the Rack and Roll a bit of a better ride, but that alone doesn't make up for the gap in...

  • Will the Roofnest Sparrow XL Roof Top Tent Fit On A Malone EcoLight Sport Trailer
    Though you will need to contact Roofnest about the hardware as it is not a part we currently carry, there shouldn't be an issue. From looking at the instructions, it will fit standard crossbars that are 40 inches wide with a minimum crossbar spread of 30 inches. The Malone EcoLight Sport Trailer # MAL53FR will have crossbars that are 58 inches wide and has a spread of 38-1/2 inches. They will also be 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" bars and will not be an issue at all.

  • Which Malone Xtralight Trailer with Kayak Carrier Can Store Up On its End
    The Malone XtraLight Trailer that you referenced does have bumpers on the rear of it but it does not have the retractable tongue like you mentioned so instead you'd want the part # MPG460XT which I attached a picture of in the storage position. You'd then also need the kayak carriers part # MPG110MD which come with the other trailer you mentioned.
