[QUOTE="PSG-1, post: 328206, member: 6937"] Outstanding fabrication and welding on that trailer! =D> As someone else suggested, better get a good lock for a trailer that nice, it has a high swipeability factor. I recently took an aluminum I-beam trailer for a 21 foot boat, cut it down and modified it for my 16 foot duracraft. I noticed my new trailer seems to 'float' over potholes, it doesn't jerk and bounce like the old steel frame one did. But I'm not using a torsion axle, I'm running leaf springs. I think it's the aluminum frame itself that does a better job of dampening the ride. [/QUOTE]
