    Trailer brakes

    Thanks for all the helpful info. I think I've got the info needed to get them all hooked up correctly. (y)

    Trailer brakes

    So I should connect the ground wire coming from the brakes to the ground on the plug that connects to the truck? The ground wire from the brakes comes all the way to the plug at the front of the trailer. So far, no ground issues with the lights.

    Trailer brakes

    I recently purchased a tilt bed equipment trailer. It has brakes on all 4 axles. I haven't seen brakes wired up like this. How do these connect to the brake controller on the truck. The controller only has one connection for brakes and these have two wires coming out. Anyone seen these and...

    I love people like this that get online and talk big but face to face are spineless cowards. Jerk.

    Trailer Decking Question

    You know I came here to ask a simple question about the strength of two vs 1 board. I did come here for a butt like you to try and make me look stupid because I can guarantee you that I am not. So take your obnoxious opinions and stick them where the sun don't shine. I'm done with this place.

    Trailer Decking Question

    $1000 difference is more than a couple of bucks.

    Trailer Decking Question

    I agree, and if money were no object we wouldn't be having this discussion. But, my economy IS NOT doing great in spite of what the news media keeps telling us. So, if I can save several hundred dollars, be safe, and have a deck that will last 10 years with some care then that's where I need...

    Trailer Decking Question

    I've looked. That's all I have been able to find within a reasonable distance. If I could find white oak for $1 a foot I would do that in a heartbeat. Sawmills that have been in business all my life are now shutdown. I guess because the economy is doing so great😁🤣.

    Trailer Decking Question

    Is it a $900 price difference than red oak? That's what I'm looking at with prices. Red oak will cost me $90 for the wood. White oak will cost me $1050 for the wood.

    Trailer Decking Question

    Well, I've used it before but in 2 in thick boards and it lasted for 13 years. My question was not about types of wood but about the structural strength of 2 one inch boards vs one 2 inch thick board.

    Trailer Decking Question

    I agree but white is going to cost me $3.50 a board foot. I'm getting the red oak for .28 a board foot. That's $1000 vs less than a hundred

    Trailer Decking Question

    I am going to glue them to keep moisture between the layers down. The boards are 1 and an eighth thick so two layers will give me 2 and a quarter inches of oak. I figure if I have to replace it sooner than if it was thicker boards I'm getting it so cheap I can replace it 3 or 4 times for the...

    Trailer Decking Question

    Most of the cross members are right at 16. It's a deck over trailer and there is one section where they are 20 inches apart over the wheels. My tractor is not small. It's a Massey Ferguson 290 so I'm not comfortable with just one inch of oak.
