[QUOTE="jltrent, post: 1520584, member: 21075"] I have one like this now as gave $6500 for it at a local farm closeout sale, almost 7'x20' length and W&W brand. I have not lost one out of it yet. I pulled a rear hub off a few weeks ago to check the brakes for wear. There was about a teaspoon of dust in there and the brakes probably 75%. The hubs also have a grease zerk on the outside to grease. [img]https://i.imgur.com/BhBjWKl.jpg[/img] I had one like this as I did not like the enclosed sides unless dead of winter, it was almost 7'x20' long. I also didn't like the saddle storage nose front as I didn't need it for cattle. Every time I went to back all I could see was that protruding nose stuck at my back window and could barely see. I sold it, but the featherlite seemed like a good trailer as I bought it from a horse company that hauled horses all over the US. I bet it had 200k miles on it. I gave 8k for it and sold it for $7500 as it needed brakes, some wheel bearings, etc. This was a 95 model and the sides were pretty thick aluminum compared to the new ones I have looked at. Those horses put dents in it and I bet if it was a newer one they would have about destroyed it s thin as they are.
