3 trailer choices, your thoughts?

[rdfish1]

I have given up on my hopes of finding a really good quality use trailer for $400.

Therefore, I am going to buy a new trailer for my 2008 GTX 155 which weighs 800 lbs and is 130 inches long. Your input on each of the three choices below would be appreciated

Magic tilt pwc1250 galv, w curved cross members, torsion axle, 12" tires and Jack for $610
continental galv wc3e12 w curved cross members, springs, 12" tires and Jack for $580
The last is a continental alumnium w curved cross, springs, 12 in tires and Jack for $725

Alum rated for 1100 lbs, galv choices 1200. Really like the look of the alum but getting pricey for my liking so prob really between galv trailers but want your opinions. These are all 14 foot trailers, have realized 13 feet is too short, or so I think

Of the trailers you listed, I do not feel one is considerably better or worse than the other..

They are all basically the same trailer in regards to the specs...

 

[rdfish1]

Yes, mostly the same but I wasn't sure if one brand might be better than the other even though the specs are essentially the same. Also one has a torsion axle don't know if that is an advantage or not. I'm sure I would be happy with any of them but since I have to order the trailer and leave a deposit and can't see them first thought I would check with you guys

Continental is a well known and proven name, especially true with their newer I-Beam trailers.

I will be buying a double trailer myself from them in the somewhat near future..

I agree that all 3 are pretty much the same as far as specs, I guess i'd go with #1 based on cost.

I'm a little surprised that you can't find a decent single for $400

$200-250 I fully understand, but $400 should be no issue, when i've needed one on short notice it never took me more than 1 week with a $400 budget.

My vote is the the Aluminum.

I have one with the torsion axle but used Knotts sealed bearings in their hubs which are non serviceable.
You could but need to have press to get it out.

Leaf spring are cheap and so are bearings vs cost of torsion axle

If your not in a hurry.

May even get it for free with a little negotiating.

Aluminum. Axle will still be steel, but no trouble with the rest of the trailer.
