im getting my new trailer tomorrow.... yeeaaaahhhhhh


18 foot dove tail, 82 wide deck (widest allowed) , 7000lb, ok here is the ? should i get treated wood? or diamond plate steel? both the same as far as price....

I have a friend with a wood bed trailer, after two years half the boards have started to warp and pull up:mad:

I said wood.

Easier to maintain
Easier to replace
Not slick when wet
Easy of quickly lag/bolt in anchor points anywhere were as steel you need to find a place that is supported.

thats great that you can get them at the same price. i said the steel just because you wont have to screw with it every couple years. just keep it from rusting up north, here in texas it runs about 350 more for a steel deck.

wood works, but mine went up in flames, total loss hauin hay, the steel is junk too (got hotter than a bastard) I think the metal would have ended up the same way, all I can say is just say no to mobil home axles, if u can find a way around them, nothin but trouble, esp the 14.5 rims, they are:rainbow: I would go for the steel, if u got the $$$$

i cant remember the name of the axles but i believe they are built specifically for car haulers.... gettin the trailer for 1845$

Rob steel!!!
You will save alittle on weight too!
Of coarse I can get you replacement panels if you mess one up!
ok I am alittle biased being a sheet metal worker.......
When are you getting thursday? Friday I will go!!!

ill call ya, was goin tomorrow morning..... callin now... lol im goin with the steel......

Is that the place with the ad in the truck trader ?

I would not even think twice-steel.:D
