tow dolly

I tow my wrangler behind my e350 v-10 motorhome. My towbar rig is getting pretty worn so I'm thinking of a tow dolly. Does anyone have plans, or a link to plans for building a good one? All comments or suggestions welcome. Thanks.

Don't know what it would cost to plan and build one. In NC you can purchase them for $700-800.00 bucks.

Thanks rebocardo, that's what I was thinking about. I'd rather use a proven design than build one from scratch and overlook some important consideration. Too much at stake.
