I know I will be shunned for going against the flow of what everyone else says but after running a roll back wrecker with wood floors and trying used engine oil on my own trailer, I would not under any circumstances put used oil on the dovetail part of the trailer and be careful about the flat part of your trailer. We all know oil floats on water. When the boards get wet from rain, the oil gets pushed to the top and it can get very slick very quick. Nice when trying to recover and winch dead tractors in the rain not too nice when trying to get up enough momentum to get up the trailer and you go over the edge.
