I assume you are building a winch mount. I would go for aluminium instead. And use the heaviest pop rivets you can find.
Bike trailer :D

STFU noob .. you need a winch mount ... 3m gal will be fine. Pfft pop rivets ... liquid nails is where it's at :D

Are you going to make em removeable or is the trailer purely a bike trailer.
If its going to be removeable I would make them a little heavier to so they dont twist if only pinned in place.
