Yesterday I spent ALL day on the road to buy myself a new to me tailer. It is a Magnum tandum axle, bunk, C-channel trailer. The best part is I only gave $1450 fo it. It is in great shape but does need some work, things like trailer wiring and some lights. Thing thing that it does need is a new trailer jack, I had to pick the trailer up to put it on the truck. I think I am going to swap the parts that I likefrom my old to the new. And ask $300 for the old but if it dont sell I will probably take it to the scrap yard to see what they will give me for it. The box frame on the old one is rotted but the axle, brakes, bunks, brake accuator, wheels, tires, lights and wiring are in good shape. I hate to see it go to the scrap yard but I dont think that unless someone is a good welder that is the only option I may have. |

I think I have a nice trailer jack in storage. I had a friend pick up my trailer and he bent mine slightly so he felt obligated to buy me a new one. It's not bent very much at all and is fully functional I can take a pic and send it to you if you're interested. I believe it is a Fulton F2 jack. |

What is the length of it? And what are you looking to get out of it? |

No problem I have been weighting my options, and haven't decided what to as of yet. But thanks any way. |
