 Do you like your trailer?
I am thinking about buying a new trailer instead of hanging a new axle on my old one.
What kind of trailer do you have?
Do you like it? Hate it?
Where did you get it?
If I buy one like yours, what options did you get that I should get?

 Re: Do you like your trailer?
I have a McLain. They are making them longer in the tongue area now but they turn pretty good. Side rails are pretty nice

 Re: Do you like your trailer?

 Re: Do you like your trailer?
I have a McClain. It pulls and turns well, so I don't have any complaints.
Sometime in the future, I'm going to get a steel trailer built. The aluminum sure feels weak.

 Re: Do you like your trailer?
I have a McClain aluminum and my only complaint is when I load my boat down da aluminum looks like it's gonna break. I had a McClain galvanized under my last rig and it was strong, I think I will be buyin a heavy duty I-Beam aluminum wit tandem axles shortly to put under my rig.
