You must have better luck with trailer tires. I use ours to carry our wheeling vehicle and end up replacing 1 trailer tire on the road about once a year. Usually it happens when I'm 400+ miles from home. I am now to the point where I carry 2 spares, just in case. Its been less bad since I switched to E rated tires but I still get flats, even on < 1 year old tires.. A few of the people I go wheeling with have ended up with 2 flats in a single weekend.
Very nice work sir. Have you thought about using one of the DIY bed liner products for the underside instead of paint. I have heard of people doing that on the underside of trucks. Just a thought. Enjoy your videos. Keep them coming.
The wire mesh in the tongue is awesome idea.
The 80s model Silverados have dish plates for holding on spares.
That is one beast of a trailer,great job. 🙂
great job later
Very nice rebuild, you took a good tired trailer and customized it with more strength and features you needed.
Great series of repair and good use of your salvage materials.
2 thumbs up here Mustie1
