[QUOTE="JasonLester, post: 249671, member: 7501"] Most people on here buy used trailers and fix them up...or alot of people do as you can save a ton of money. But if your buying new...LED lights...Alot of people relocate them up high on guide ons to increase visability and help with backing the trailer.... If its just freshwater then your preference on the galvanized or not. But it is nice to help slow the rust. As fas as tires...bigger the better (within reason) 12 inch rims would be a min I would want. I like the wider bigger tire too. You may only go 10 miles now but one day you may want to go cross country and fish somewhere else...it would suck to not be able to take your boat only because your worried about the tires. Bearings I would put bearing buddies and just check/pack them on a regular basis. Other than that haven't heard of much complaints on any brand. Trailers aren't rocket science so anyone should be able to build a decent trailer...of course I did say should. :shock: Good luck... [/QUOTE]
