Enclosed trailer questions/opinions

Sawzall · Aug 1, 2019

I have had good luck with Loctite PL Polyurethane Roof and Flashing sealant. I put a heavy bead and spread it to around 3/4" wide and not less than 1/8" thick. I use that stuff on many things, like sealing body seams on cars, attaching bathroom mirrors to the wall. I think it is around $7 a tube at Home Depot.

I use dicor in a caulking gun to run along the seams and then cover the seam with 6" eternabond tape on my RV roof. Haven't had any issues with leaking.

Good info from both.

Using this had crossed my mind for sure.

Did you get a enclosed or this for the hauler?

We used a enclosed trailer for a landscaping service. Love it everything is dry especially the seat with suspension. Down side is obvious as it weighs more and pulling grades with the 97 7.3 I can tell. However in a summer shower or downpour I can take shelter and stay dry till it passes or I go home.

I don't want a open trailer after this experience if I build and get a dedicated trail rig. It's safe nobody can steal anything off it or vandalize it if it's locked. Totally the way to go. However enclosed does pose some issues with a broken or non running trail rig on ease of loading. However we are all pretty red here and can figure a way around it!
