Trailer shopping help needed

teampryor · Dec 11, 2012

This is where I am at now Thanks to your inputs and reccomendations.
I am looking at PJ and more closely at Rolls Rite thaey have a manufacture facility 60 miles from me. I do like my business local where I can.
Link 14KP22TE Tilt Trailer
I will take your advise on the wood deck. but will try for a tilt low boy. Stretch the stationary to 7' and 17' tilt, american made tires. Gravity tilt, tool box and chain storage.
I have a 28' v nose race trailer 14k bumper pull already and WD hitch, so i do not wish to upgrade to GN at this time. I will be trading my truck at about this time next year.
Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

14K tag works great if you have enough truck. I agree that you will be better off with a wood deck. The last couple feet of mine is diamond plate and is extremely slick when wet compared to the wood. You can walk on the wood and skate on the steel if wet.

Sure Trac | Home

If you can afford it they now offer Hot Dipped Galvanized if you are concerned about rust.

Whatever you buy be sure it has good axles like Dexter under it.

Very nice trailer indeed! However, I'd cover the plate on your trailer, just like you did on the truck. Times *are* changing!

I cover my plates cause other people do but why should you?

Because someone might want the tractor, trailer(s), ladders and caone in the pictures and for $29 they have his address #1 New York License Plate Search | NY License Plate Lookup

Hey, I didn't even notice the "caone" in the pics. It looks like a nice one though. What was that website again?

You can get it just driving down the road.

Okay well i will look into the cover your plate option with the trailer company, though i did not see that option in the attached link?
Thanks for the advise you may now go back to what you were doing.
