Look what followed me home today.

[h2odrx]

Well it's not int the best of shape. but i backed up to it with in 2" (the first time) and then hooked up to it and pulled it out of the weeds, we then removed the flats and added two tires i had brought with me. It was way too easy? So how much would you pay for it?

 

[rubberfish]

I sold one exactly like that about six years ago.
Had as much, if not more garbage on it too.
It had about a dozen sheets of rotten ply-wood
under all the plant life. I got $300 for it too.
What ya going to use it for. I sold mine because
it wasn't legal for the road. Here they frown
on trailers with mobile home axles under them.

i didn't even think about that. It had a lot of rotten wood on it also. I got in clean and will get some more pictures in the morning. it also has electric brakes and a tilt bed. does it have a 2" hitch? I've got a 1"7/8 on my truck and it worked good? not sure what I'll do with it. you got $300 for it?

My uncle lives in your area and he says that NC is not to strict about trailers and such...just commercial stuff, where they are quite strict indeed. What does it need to make it road worthy? Its probably worth what you think it is...something if you feel you can use it.

That's a Canadian dollar. Not a peso.

That looks to be a good solid, well built trailer. The steel deck I'm not that fond of, they tend to be slippery when wet, but, that's just personal preference.
The bulldog coupler is always a good thing, I really like those. Going to be a bit of a project for sure, but, it looks to be a good solid trailer.
RLDSL: Hardly, the US dollar only buys $1.03 CDN right now, hardly the $1.60 it was a few years back when I cashed in my American savings... That $300 CDN would be $291 USD at current exchange rates.

I know, I was just funnin' ya . 20 years ago was a pretty big difference, but last time I was up in New Brunswick, I couldn't see any real difference in the exchange rate.

Trailers similar to that one will fetch from fifty to one-fifty at farm sales around here.

That Bulldog looks to be welded in front of a ball-coupler, possibly; but, it is hard to really tell from the pictures.

Otherwise, I can't figure the trigger/latch behind the Bulldog; I have never seen a similar set-up on any other Bulldog that I have looked at.

What is the big rectangular box business made on the tongue ??

 

[BigRigTech]

I need to get a cheap trailer to haul my drag truck, I'm going to borrow my buddies trailer until I get one. Good deal on yours.

Ya better watch out, me and my fellow Canuck's are getting ready to take over the world........Seeing as our dollar is on it's way to being equal with yours.......Things are booming up here, mostly in Alberta. We lost 2 more tech's and a parts women to Alberta in the past week because of the big money out there. We are down to 6 guys on the dayshift at my shop now from 10 and the nightshift is down to 6 techs from 9. Worked out in my favor though, more training because they know I'm staying here and they gave me an apprentice to work with on Saturdays (my old partner was licensed like me) so no more oil/grease jobs for me...

Well i got for $100.00, the big box is an adjustment? the deck has some extras on it, looks like lights, tires, brakes and safety chains (and pay for it) to make it road worthy. it was on a job site and had to be moved so i did the guy a favor and moved it for him, now i got to give him $100

 

[riotwarrior]

Heck I woulda paid a bill for that fer sure.....Mobile home axles and all...its a great start to a decent trailer here as was said them axles tend to be frowned on rather significantly. Thus change axles and voila instant uber trailer...woot!!!

I just find it strange that trailer axles can't be on trailers? Northerns??

I bought 8 lug hubs for my mobile home axles and they went right on, about 50 bucks per hub bearings included. Good find for a clam, worth that much just to scrap it. Tell the guy it took 50 bucks worth of fuel to move it plus the tires you brought.
