[QUOTE="Steele3, post: 489025, member: 3353"] Ok. So I still have not decided on a trailer but have it narrowed down. Was going to get one from cotter but after sales tax it was over 2600 for a 22' with a 5" C channel frame, and 16" cross member spacing, optioned out like I wanted with extra d rings, removable fenders and a receiver tube for my winch. Which is not a bad deal but I can get one similar just across the state line without paying the Option 2 - I can get a 22' with same options as above for 2400 but it's got a 4" C channel frame, and cross member spacing of 20". Same options as above. Its in AL so no sales tax, so it's 2400 out the door. Option 3 - I found a trailer builder in Ardmore that will build a 22' that is 88" or 90" wide so the fenders don't have to come off, (he said it would cost a few hundred for removable fenders :dunno: ) , its 4" channel that I think he said was double plated on the tongue. His floor tie downs were a lot extra 20 each. And I didn't ask about the receiver tube for winch. I like being able to drive between the fenders. His was 2400 out the door no tax. So, opinions on these 3? What do you think about 4" vs. 5" channel frame, keep in mind it's 3500# axles. And the first trailer is the only one optioned with the 16" floor centers. Also the last one is the only person that would build one over 82" deck width, other guys said it was not legal to go wider by time they put fenders on. What is the legal DOT overall width? [/QUOTE]
