The original subject was "Deckover trailer with rusted out frame, what to do".

Roughly 2 years later I happened onto this thread and thought I would update it.

I've been using the trailer as a farm trailer with an SMV sign on it and staying under 30 mph... ahem. Its been hauling 250 x 50 lb bales on long trips (50 miles) and up to 300 bales in the field but try not to as the high pressure tires sink in badly.

The frame hasn't failed yet despite looking terrible and have fist size holes in the web. The side rails with the extra section of 1" rebar are in great shape are hold it together.

I have the 8" channel now to fix it, just trying to find a day to do it.

Its a great riding trailer when loaded and pulls well with the F350 even though its heavy. I've got to say, a 27 ft bumper pull with a lot of overhang sure gets in driveways easier than a goose, and leaves the bed free for the 60 odd bales we put on the truck.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point ... [Read Article]
