good trailer suppliers?
« on: 03/21/08 - 09:07PM »
I am in the market for a new trailer. I currently have a 16ft tandem axle no brakes and no dovetail I need a 21-24ft tandem with brakes on at least 1 axle. With my willys nearing completion and already having the yamaha we can't fit both on a 16ft trailer.

Does anyone know of a place to get what I need fairly cheap?

I am sure that somebody else will know some great places.  I have heard that Branson Trailers (www.bransontrailersales.com/) are reasonable, but you get what you pay for.  From what I understand, that dont really cut corners, they just dont have all the bells and whistles, liking painting under the deck.  Anyway, I know some guys in the club have some of their trailers, maybe they will post up.

Heard good things about this place
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2008-7k-18-ft-Deluxe-Flatbed-Car-Hauler-Utility-Trailer_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ80769QQihZ021QQitemZ310034427880QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW

Just stay away from the place in Puducah TN that offers Ebay trailers. Not very customer courtius and not of the best of quality, BUT they do have a good price

yup once I find a suitable replacement in my price range I will sell my 16ft trailer. It was recently re-done it has new fenders,deck (2x8), jack,wiring,lights and I painted it Yamaha blue. It has good tires with a good spare but the wheels are UGLY!

I built fenders supports that make an L so the fenders are strong enough to be used as steps onto the trailer.

I hope this works on posting pix.
Just be careful on buying a trailer. I just went through a bad trailer experiance that turned out OK in the end. I bought a trailer sight unseen (due to being deployed) and paid near $1700. This is what I got

Went through the process of I don't think so I want my money back and then found this for right at $1800

I know that this thread is over a year old but thought I would throw in my 2 cents for future buyers reading old forums. I have found that Wildcat Rental on highway 60 on the way to Rogersville from Springfield is very hard to beat from a price/quality standpoint. All the trailers that they sell are the same ones that they use for their rentals so they come with the heavier axle etc. Just thought I would throw that out there!
