USED HORSE TRAILERS

 
When purchasing a used horse trailer a buyer’s primary concern should be for the condition of the unit. First, check flooring and structural beams on the underside of the trailer for signs of corrosion and rust. Next, check the brakes and suspension for leaks and wear, then look at the tires. Tires should not have dry rot on the treads or sidewalls. More importantly, keep a keen eye for uneven tire wear, as this could be an indication of axle misalignment or a bent frame.
 
If everything is up to snuff on the underside, move to the topside and closely inspect upper body panels and the roof. The most serious and hard-to-fix problems will be stress fractures in aluminum body panels and leaking roof panels that require never-ending maintenance. Pay close attention to the condition of welds and fasteners securing body panels.
 
There are two other areas of major importance. The first if these is the coupler or latching mechanism that secures the trailer to the tow vehicle. A significantly worn coupler on either a bumper pull or gooseneck horse trailer could allow the trailer to come loose during use. The other area of major importance may need to be checked by a competent mechanic who has experience in electrical systems and appliances. Many larger horse trailers have lights, fans, pumps, inverters, generators, air conditioning units, stoves, refrigerators and more that require ample electrical current to operate. Trailer brakes, too, are often electric as opposed to mechanical, and must have stable power to function properly.
