Take a good trailer mechanic with you, brakes, suspension will be wore. Better figure 5-10 grand to fix everything to be DOT ready. Also rollers, latches will be wore. Turns a 30 grand trailer into a 50 grand after fixing. Very doable when pricing two gooseneck. Lots easier to keep it all legal in DOT, licensing, etc. Far easier to do it right than get your chops busted on side of road when your in a hurry.
