Re: Enclosed Trailer Suggestions
Russell, I agree definitely the best investment for the price. Back up lights are going on next week when we might get some warmer weather. It will probably require the install of electric brakes as well for the seven point conector to be used. I'll let you know how it goes. I am in MA also (Bellingham). Nice to see some local talent on the web.

Re: Enclosed Trailer Suggestions
Just oredered my trailer a few weeks ago so here's a couple of pieces of miscellaneous trailer info before I forget them:
In many states including PA all double axle trailers are required to have operating electric brakes. Most trailer companies build standard interior height of 6' and sell upgrades in 6inch increments. standard floor thickness is 3/4inch and walls 3/8 inch, beware any company who goes thinner than this. Most companies will do 3/4 floor and walls as upgrade Roof racks are available as an option All aluminum trailers means that the frame underneath is welded aluminum instead of steel, expect this option to add 2k or more to price Beware flip down stands on the back corners of the trailer, they often dig into driveways when backing into sloped driveways, and on some company's trailers they are welded on and cannot be removed. One piece seamless aluminum top is a must 2ft stoneguard on the front is highly recommended trailers with floor frames over 16OC often have 16OC available as an option Not all coatings on the bottom of the plywood flooring are created equal www.rubycon.us Ruby Construction LLC Lancaster Kitchen Remodeling Lancaster Bathroom Remodeling Last edited by orson; 04-13-2008 at 10:01 PM. |

Re: Enclosed Trailer Suggestions
I dont have any pics of mine but i bought an 07 Continental 7k,7X14 v nose for $3500 used. When i picked it up it still had the rubber nipples in the middle of the tires. It is 14' long plus 2' for the v nose, aluminum with steel frame, barn doors on the back and barn door on the right side, 3/4" floor,3/8" walls, two interior lights, white steel wheels, ceiling light, roof is all one peice and does not leak. I built a 18"x10' long bench on the left side with a shelf in the middle for conduit and the bottom for supplies, behind that i have two 4' ladders and hanging above the bench is one 24' fiberglass ext. ladder. The right side has an 18"X8' long bench with a shelf for all tools/supplies top,middle and bottom. Behind that bench is two 6' ladders and hanging above the bench is two 8' ladders. I built two shelves into the v-nose for tools and supplies also. This is where the power inverter and the battery is along with the clock, fire extinguisher and first-aid kit. The 10' bench is real handy for working with conduit or laying tools out.

Re: Enclosed Trailer Suggestions
Experience dictates that anything done to todays needs will soon be overcome by tomorrows demands.
Never, ever, ever not think of "what if?". Buy bigger. Buy better.

Re: Enclosed Trailer Suggestions
I have 3 businesses. Real Estate Office, Property Management and Contracting. I injured my back last year and after trying to struggle with it, I decided why bother. I can support myself with the other two businesses so why deal with all the pain.
I also have the 2003 Yukon up for sale as well as a 2000 Polaris Sportsman Quad. |
