Buying a trailer Friday, opinions?

[PDenbigh]

Thanks, yeah I figured I could save some good money by buying used, but doesnt make sense to wait around for one if I have to rent at a cost of 200 bucks for the 2 weekends ill be tracking in the next month.

How will I know if a trtailer is "solidy" built.

It's more of a visual thing and a "gut" thing. Look for a beam that splits the front triangle of the tongue, look for gusseted joints, etc. With my weak trailer, I could bounce (hit a harmonic with your bounce rhythm) on a back corner, and the whole trailer would wobble about the diagonal intersection from the back/left to front/right (for example). With my new trailer, it doesn't affect it nearly as much.
