| To each is own, I have seen slider doors on featherlites, Wilsons, Charmac, Sooner, Barrett, Marriot, Ebby's all break. Over a period of time they ALL Break! I'm telling you having the slider on the inside is no problem. 99% of the time you only use the slider to load, and you use big door to unload. At least on a ground load rig. As for the roll up doors, I've seen a lot of them have the rollers fall out, just plain wear in the door track from vibration.
The Wilson is a good trailer, and belive me I've seen them wear just as much as a Featherlite. The downfall of all trailers in the back endgate. The biggest reason about not having a endgate on the outside of the trailer is, I've loaded at a lot of chutes, that once you have loaded, the cattle have put enough weight on trailer to make it roll back into the chute, and you can't get door to slide back shut. I've had better luck with slider on the inside to fit more chutes without readjustment. Nothing worse than getting backed up and your slider won't open, you have to get back into truck to make a gap for slider on outside work. Then you run the risk of getting a baby calf's leg down between bumper and chute. | |
