Equipped for Extra-Long and Wide Loads
The length of the trailer bed can be extended by folding the front and rear tailgates down. First, release the tailgate from the side panels. To do this, unclip the 2 snapper pins that connect the tailgate to the latches on each side panel. Then lift the tailgate up out of the latches and simply fold the panel down. Lanyards keep the pins attached to the gate latches so that you won't lose them.
When both tailgates are unlatched, you can remove the side panels to create a flatbed trailer. To do this, unbolt each side panel from the trailer floor separately. There are 6 cargo tie-down locations on the trailer floor, which make it convenient to strap down large and bulky items.
2-Position Bed Adjustment
The trailer bed can either be level in its travel position, or tilted down for loading and unloading. This makes it safer and easier for you to load heavy items because you can slide them into the trailer rather than having to lift them.
To tilt the trailer bed, simply unclip the snapper pins that connect the bed to the frame. Lanyards keep the pins attached to the trailer bed so that you won't lose them.
Once both pins are released, the trailer bed can be tilted down into the loading/unloading position. Shifting heavy items toward the rear of the trailer will help to tilt the bed down so that you don't have to do as much heavy lifting. Once you're ready to reload, shift the weight of any heavy items toward the front of the trailer to help the bed level out again. When the trailer bed is back in its travel position, reinsert the pins to secure the trailer bed back onto the frame.
Trailer Lighting
The trailer's tail lights work in tandem with the brake lights and turn signals of your vehicle, and they are compliant with DOT standards for street safety. Additional marker lights are located on each side of the trailer, and they will illuminate when your vehicle lights are turned on. This makes the trailer more visible at night.
The trailer light wiring is pre-installed and cleanly attached under the trailer bed. The wiring harnesses are conveniently located in each light bracket, making it quick and easy to plug in the tail lights and marker lights when you mount them.
An additional bracket is included for your license plate. This will attach to the driver's-side tail light.

Cons first. I received this trailer on a Saturday evening, 6:30pm. The 500+lbs palletized box had been loaded onto an enclosed Estes freight truck using a forklift. No thought was given to the fact that the pallet was 8 feet long by almost 6 feet wide. The truck was only equipped with a 5 foot lift gate! The pallet was broken in pieces , as was the box. I'm over 70 and had to climb up into the truck several times as I and the driver unloaded the trailer pieces by hand. The trailer floor alone weighs about 200 lbs!
The scattered pieces seemed okay so I signed off.
Upon completion of assembly I discovered the lights didn't work. Testing revealed the wiring had been cut INSIDE the frame tube! 20 miles to town, and $50 worth of loom, wire, connectors, end plugs and tape later, the lights work. The license plate bracket would have positioned the plate only a few inches off the ground (on a tilt-bed trailer, no less) so I had to make a mount above the taillight and then 20 miles back to town for a license plate light, $25 later the plate is where it belongs.
The sides, front gate and rear gate all go on easily, but don't line up, or, seal well enough to haul dirt, sand, or gravel. The rear gate won't engage the upper latch at all, meaning I have to wrap rope around the trailer to keep the load from sliding right out the back. Although it's advertised that the tailgate will lay down flat for long loads (lumber) it does not, but instead falls to the ground. If you need to haul long loads you'll have to unbolt the tailgate every time as I do. The six tie-downs advertised are only usable when all the sides and gates are removed. If you need to haul an appliance or furniture -- you're out of luck.
The gaps around the front and rear gates are so large, you can stick the fingers of your hand right through.
Remember that if you discover the hub grease fittings are broken off, as mine was, they are metric. Go to Napa.
I'm trying to load some photos so you can see for yourself.
Now the pros (positive things). Although I'm deeply embarrassed to be seen pulling this thing down the road, at least it's black, making it almost invisible in my yard -- almost.
At the end of it all: trailer, 1 star. etrailer, 4 stars. Etrailer has normally great products, great prices, free shipping, and outstanding customer service.
I'm one heck of a disappointed shopper right now, but I'll still take my business to etrailer. Check out the detail photos.

Decent trailer for the price, easy assembly took me about 4 hours by myself including flipping the trailer over (usually a two person job, it weighs several hundred pounds during assembly. Couple of issues. Suspension can be bouncy, you will need to adjust your tire pressure for the load, down for lighter loads. If you ever tilt the trailer expect to sheer off your license plate. I eventually mounted mine to the rear drop gate.

The trailer is sold as road worthy
> tires do not handle speeds above 50 mph
> tie downs are below trailer frame causing added friction
And wear on straps used for toe down.
> rear trailer gate could be made more functional by
increasing height from trailer bed by 18 inches allowing
Ramp capability.
> cable and pins on both gates are easily broken. Two of four
broke on first trip. If never used they work fine.

I probably use the trailer about 2 to 3 times a month. I like everything about it. Small, compact, and easy end gate use. The issue I have had was one of the tail light brackets welds broke. I re welded it myself. The one thing that would make it much handier is to extend the length to accommodate a 4x8 foot sheet of plywood or other building material.

I have had this trailer for about a year now. I pull it with my Ford Flex. I have found the size, quality, and versatility greatly exceed my expectations. Even though my Flex has a large capacity, the K-2 handles everything from lumber runs to dump runs with no wear on the interior of the Flex. We live on an island and the K-2 has proven its worth many times over. Oh and the build was a breeze but two people makes it much easier.

- Replacement Bearing Kit for Detail K2 Mighty Multi A-Frame Utility TrailerTo replace the bearings and seals on your Detail K2 Mighty Multi A-Frame Utility Trailer # K2MMT5X7 you need the Bearing Kit # BK1-150 which comes with L44649 inner and outer bearings as well as a 10-60 seal.
view full answer... - Options For Carrying 4 Bikes And A Spare Tire On A 2026 Kia CarnivalHi Raymond! I have a couple options you may be interested in, but that's quite a conundrum. I do know there are no 4 bike racks that can hold a spare tire as well as the bikes, but you may be able to use a cargo carrier, like the 24x60 etrailer Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches # e98874. This has 500 pounds of carrying capacity and will handle the weight of your bikes and the spare tire perfectly. Space is a little limited, but you could also add the Stromberg Carlson Bike Rack Adapter for...
view full answer... - Can Detail K2 Mighty Multi A-Frame Utility Trailer Have Tires with Higher Speed Rating InstalledThe speed rating is related to the tires as that's the limiting factor. The tire on the trailer part # K2MMT5X7 would be limited to 65, but what you can do is replace the tires with the part # TTWSF48012C which is rated for 81 mph. This would lower the capacity of the trailer to being 1,980 lbs though. The tire will also cause the trailer to sit about 3/4 of an inch lower.
view full answer... - Carrying An E-Bike And An E-Trike On A 2019 Forest River Sunriver I may be able to provide you with some options to carry your bike and trike, but I will need some more information from you. I need the make and models of your bike and trike. Most importantly, I need the weights of your e-bike and trike and the wheelbase of your trike and its length. The Swagman 4 Bike Carrier RV Mounted Bike Rack, part # S80600, you attached to your question will not work for this application. Each of your bikes will weigh more than 30 lbs.
view full answer... - Can 2018 Tesla Model 3 with etrailer Hitch Tow DK2 Mighty MultiFrame TrailerHey Robert, I looked up the weight of the DK2 Might Multi Frame and it is pretty lightweight at 451 lb. so it would pretty easily be able to be towed with the etrailer hitch # e33ZR. It looks like the coupler height of that trailer is 16 inches and based on the hitch height of the e33ZR you'd need a rise ball mount of 6 inches. For that we have the part # C45090 and then for the correct size ball you'd need the part # 63845. Since you have trailer wiring covered already you should be good...
view full answer... - How Can I Get A Replacement Tongue Sticker For Thule Easyline TP125 TrailerHello Mark, thanks for reaching out. The Thule Easyline trailer has been discontinued for quite some time. We sold our last one back in 2011. So, sadly we no longer carry any replacement parts or stickers for these. If you are needing to track down a new tag, your best bet would be to reach out directly to Thule. If anyone will know about how to get one it would be them. With the trailer being so old I am not sure if they still make a tag for it, but hopefully there is some kind of solution...
view full answer... - How to Determine Trailer Size for Hauling 2 Adult Pedal TricyclesThanks for reaching out, Roxanne! The biggest factor in choosing the correct trailer for hauling your adult tricycles is figuring out how much width you need for your trailer floor. For example, the Detail K2 Mighty Multi A-Frame Utility Trailer # K2MMT5X7 bed measures 88" long x 52" wide so if that will fit both the bikes side-by-side (one facing forwards and one facing backwards) then this trailer will work for you! If you let me know what year your Nissan Rogue is I can make trailer...
view full answer... - Can I Attach A Hitch Cargo Carrier To A Trailer Hitch On A 2012 Mercedes-Benz E-Class SedanI do have a solution for you that would not require a trailer hitch adapter, meaning you can carry up to 200 lbs on the tongue of your trailer hitch. This is the maximum tongue weight for the trailer hitch compatible with your 2012 Mercedes-Benz E-Class, part # C11001. The tongue weight will include the weight of the carrier and the items you will be carrying. The 20x47 Reese Cargo Carrier for 1-1/4" Hitches - Steel - 300 lbs, part # 63155, weighs about 44 lbs, leaving you with 156 lbs...
view full answer... - Replacement Hubs and Spare Wheel/Tire for Detail K2 Mighty Multi A-Frame Utility TrailerHey Nick! Since your # K2MMT5X7 VIN number starts with L1 you need the Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 2K Axles # AKIHUB-545-2-2K. This comes with new bearings and seals and is pre-greased and ready to go. The trailer comes with 5.30-12 Load Range C tires so for a spare you can use the # AM30850 or # AM30859. We don't have an exact match with the silver wheel so white or galvanized are the only options. If you need anything else feel free to reach out in the comments below.
view full answer... - Can I Carry An ATV Or Snowmobile On My Vehicle With Mad-Ramps Pivoting Ramp SystemI can definitely help determine if a Mad Ramp system is right for you, but I will need some information from you first. What type of ATV or snowmobile do you intend to transport? What vehicle will you be using to transport this item? Once I have this information, I will better able to help you.
view full answer... - Trailer Option For Carrying Two E-TrikesHi Jon! Though not specifically designed for e-trikes, the Detail K2 Mighty Multi A-Frame Utility Trailer # K2MMT5X7 should work for your needs. I say "should" as you didn't mention the width or wheel base of the trikes you have. This has a 1,640 pound payload capacity and measures 88" long x 52" wide inside the bed (it can be increased to 136" long with the front and rear panels down), so you would need to load one trike backwards and one forwards to get them to fit. It also only weighs...
view full answer... - Replacement Bearing Kit for Detail K2 Mighty Multi Utility TrailerHey Yves, to replace the bearings and seals on your Detail K2 Mighty Multi A-Frame Utility Trailer # K2MMT5X7 you need the Bearing Kit # BK1-150 which comes with L44649 inner and outer bearings as well as a 10-60 seal. It's not super difficult to pull off but I attached a link to an install video that shows how to replace bearings. You might need to scroll down a little bit to see the link.
view full answer... - Compatibility Of Detail K2 Utility Trailer For Carrying KayaksThe Detail K2 Mighty Multi A-Frame Utility Trailer - 7-1/2' Long - 1,640 lbs # K2MMT5X7 is not designed to carry kayaks, but I don't see any reason why you couldn't attach the kayak carriers to the two end bars. The kayak when strapped in will further restrict movement, so that wouldn't be an issue. The tongue length from coupler to front gate is 44-7/8 inches. The tailgates have a weight capacity of 250 lbs for the front gate and 100 lbs for the rear gate, so your kayak and carrier...
view full answer... - Recommended Trailer to Haul 2 TrikesPaul, the only trailer we have that you could potentially use is the Detail K2 Mighty Multi A-Frame Utility Trailer # K2MMT5X7. This trailer measures 88" long x 52" wide, and has a max payload capacity of 1,640 lbs.

I do recommend getting a steel sheet up to 1/8 inch thick to use as a backing plate to disperse the force applied to the chock over a larger area. It would go on the under side of the deck. The Rack'Em chock will work for tires up to 6-1/2 inches wide. For tie downs ShockStrap has a set of 4 straps specifically...
view full answer... - Recommended Trailer and Trailer Hitch for a 2014 Ford Focus Joe, you're not going to find any hitches for your 2014 Ford Focus that are going to be able to handle both your electric wheelchair and wheel chair hauler, the tongue weight for it is too high. I'd instead recommend using a utility trailer like # K2MMT5X7 with the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24872 and tow it. This way you can use all of the 2,000 lbs the trailer hitch offers and have plenty of space to stow your wheelchair.

You can add a hitch and a small utility trailer. First the hitch, you could use the Curt # 13540 or Curt # C13106 hitch. Both allow you to keep your full size spare tire in place. I included links to both of these. As they are similarly priced, I recommend the Curt # 13540 because it is a little easier to install. This "hitch" gets you the part that bolts onto your Explorer frame and the 2" square...

- Are There Upgraded Tires for the Detail K2 Mighty Multi A-Frame Utility TrailerThe Detail K2 Mighty Multi A-Frame Utility Trailer part # K2MMT5X7 will not accept a larger wheel/tire combination unfortunately. There is not enough room between the tire and fender for this. That said, if all you're wanting is radial you can use the Taskmaster 5.30R12 Radial Trailer Tire part # TT53012C which is the same size on the trailer now but with radial a ply.

Although it is slightly larger than the hub bore, I was able to find that the Bearing Buddy that fits a 2.047" hub bore will fit perfectly on the trailer. This size Bearing Buddy comes in Chrome Plated # BB2047 or Stainless Steel # BB2047SS. I have attached some review videos of the Bearing Buddy options for you...
view full answer... - What Grease Should Be Used In Trailer Hub When Current Grease Complex Is UnknownThat will really depend on the bearing grease used in the hubs of your Detail K2 Mighty Multi A-Frame Utility Trailer # K2MMT5X7. Typically manufacturer's of utility trailers use a standard grease like the # L11465 or # L11380 you saw mentioned, but this grease is only compatible with polyurea based conventional greases. What I recommend instead is since DK2 is unable to provide the complex of the factory grease, Remove the hubs and clean out all of the factory grease. Once that is done...
view full answer... - Is There an Option to Lower the Trailer Hitch Receiver for Motorcycle Carrier Use?There really isn't an option to lower your hitch 6 inches and carry 400 lb motorcycle with carrier. The Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter, 6" Drop/Rise # RM-077-6 is the strongest option with a 400 lb tongue weight capacity that doesn't account for the weight of the carrier, so is not a working option. Adapters simply are not strong enough for the tongue weight you are seeking. Your best option is to use the Replacement Shank for Gen-Y Adjustable Ball Mount - 2" Hitch - 7-1/2" Drop/Rise...

- Trailer for Carrying a Motorcycle with a Class I Trailer Hitch ReceiverWe carry one utility trailer that may work for you. The Detail K2 Mighty Mutli Utility Trailer # K2MMT5X7 is 7-1/2 feet long and carry up to 1,640 pounds. This will be plenty for your motorcycle. However, since you said you have a Class I hitch receiver you should verify that your tow vehicle is rated for towing a trailer and how much weight it can tow. The hitch you purchased will have a rating but you are limited by the lowest rated component which is often the vehicle. If you need...

If you are in the market for a lightweight trailer kit, I recommend looking at either the Detail K2 Mighty Utility Trailer, # K2MMT5X7, which is very similar to the older Thule Easyline trailers or the Detail K2 Multi Utility Trailer, # K2MMT4X6, which has lower sidewalls, but it includes a taller tailgate that can act as a ramp for 4 wheelers and ATVs.

For attachment straps to secure your bikes, I recommend ratchet straps like the Erickson Re-Tractable Ratchet Straps w/ Push Button Releases # 34414. If you decide to go the route with the utility trailer, you need to have a 4-way wiring harness and a ball mount/ball like the ones included in the Curt Fusion Ball Mount for 2" Hitches...
