Wi | Tim in WI - 4/4/2013 06:39 Is that an Orbis head on your new one? Are you going to be doing "Shredlage"? I have a Featherlite trailer too, since '03. No troubles yet, except the wheels could use repainting.
Yes that looks like an Orbis 600.
We just got rid of our second featherlite. First one was from the 80s, we bought it used in 2000 or something 8x24, it was still in decent shape but showing its age so we traded for a new 8x24 in 05. That trailer was nothing like the old one, much poorly built. We just sold it and bought a 7x31 Alum-Line. The featherlite floor was worn out and slick and stress cracks were just starting in some areas, we needed a bigger trailer more than anything though. The Alum-Line has been interesting so far, had some issues with their service in the whole deal and after only a couple weeks of using it enough things were broken, but we'll see how it holds up. Like their floor a lot, and they are cheaper than a Wilson or Eby, but we may go Wilson next time. Like the riveted construction better. |
