It is 30' straight, no +.
I would like to buy a trailer like Scott's. Yes I believe it is 32' not sure about the dovetail since it is a lowboy. it may have a small dovetail but nothing as steep as a deckover.
It's 30' straight with no dovetail. I love the length and width.
Oh, I have the 102" wide deck, except of course at the fenders
Interesting. 40' but only 2 7k axles? Wonder what the trailer weighs alone? Probably for hauling pipe? Doesnt seem too useful unless you are hauling 3 lightweight rigs.

Boy howdy, that thing would drag like Rupaul!!!
Lots of tongue weight too.
Sold for $2800 :DQuote:

Decent deal? He agreed to 3200 if it is still there Sunday. Texas pride brand
seems like a good deal to me, it should fit the ranger and the bronco real nice
I dig it.
BDR, where do you find the socket head torx floor screws? Just Home Depot? And do you have to pre-drill the board?Quote:

Deck, redo the rigging on the ramps, 7way plug, and drive over fenders
There's a specialty screw company across the street from my office. They had them in stock. I think I asked for trailer floor screws and they knew what I wanted. The screws are self tapping, but you do have to pre-drill. If you get me a quantity I can get you a quote/pick them up.

Thanks. I will get a count tonight.
Gooseneck has em. I'm sure any trailer dealer that has a parts dept will stock them
300

This is the trailer I bought a couple weeks back. It is 25' with no dove.
It needed some wiring repairs and I did enough to make it to Clayton. I still need to wire back the breakaway and unrig some other brake related stuff. Changed it to a 7 blade also
It needs a new deck and some repairs To the ramp setup, but should be good after that.
Has 2 7000lb axles with brakes on both and 4 new tires. Came with 2 chains, binders, and 2 extra strAps....but no title just yet. Still working in that
Guy says it weighs 3200 empty

This the Frick's Dads old 6x10 tilt Jeremiah and I bought for the Ranger. Primed and painted the whole thing, all new wiring and lights, new 2x8s, weather sealed, moved the spare and a few other things. Plan to get the wheels mounted this week. I need to weld some d rings on and I would also like to find some mesh or something to put on the sides
How are you going about getting the title?
The guy's boss owns the trailer and the title is in his name and he apparently has lost it. I called him when i left the tax office and he seemed like he would take care of it. We'll see. Not going to start on it until I get that resolvedQuote:

The bid the job with 8.4 hours labor will be ~2200. Guess I'm gonna roll with the windows down until I come up with a better bid. This truck is starting to be a headache. Keeps having problems.
That's what you get for buying a dodge
It's not under warranty? I have 100k on everything on the F250
What Sam said. I met a guy who bought a 2012 Dodge and the transmission went out in 50 miles and after convincing them to buy it back he got another Dodge and the A/C went out at 150 miles. I have heard way too many bad things about the new dodges at work.
All new trucks suck
I can't agree. Aside from all the new emissions crap, the Fords are really nice, I haven't been in a new Chevy and my uncle has a Dodge which isn't bad if there weren't so many problems with them.
Why is this discussion happening in the trailer thread? sounds like more of a tow rig/diesel thread topic
Our Fords are always broke down and who the **** would want a truck with a 24 gallon fuel tank? seriously my girlfriends Camry can drive further on a tank of gas... And Chevys are still like cars :flipoff2:
They all suck. I hear the Fords have emissions problems, my 2011 Chevy has emissions problems, been in the shop 3 times in 25K miles for emissions and fluid sensors going out. At least it has a 100K mile warranty I guess.
Interesting, I havent had one single problem out of my 04. But i am getting more nervous on a daily basis about my injectors...
That's not a new truck....Quote:

I love how people say "We got a fleet of (insert brand here) for our oil company, driven by 10 different oilfield trash rednecks and they all crap out at 100k miles, pieces of ****,"
my 2008 is still going strong with no problems and 62,000 miles. I changed the fuel filter twice and tranny fluid once - besides the typical oil and filter change. Oh, I changed the air filter once to a K&N type, and have cleaned it once after that.
No ****, was arguing the fact that older diesels are better quality. May not have as much power, but mine gets me everywhere I need to go and is one of the tightest trucks i have ever driven, even with 165kQuote:

Not to mention all service is done at the dealership. Ford actually quit selling us diesels....
edit- don't forget I'm not being serious John, I'm sure your truck would suit a soccer mom making them long hauls to the grocery store just fine :flipoff2:
This doesn't really help your argument.Quote:
