We have bought multiple trailer from a company in OKC. Great product and I believe they will customize them.

http://www.customtrailersalesinc.com/index.html

I called them and they were 1600 under with what I believer a better product. And they aren't 4 hours away if it needs work.

I have had 2 Pace American trailers. now. They were great!

The two that I have had quoted were a Haulmark and a Continental Cargo. I am trying to avoid having to pay to have it shipped in, I am not sure where a pace factory is but the Continental is definately the closest so far.

WOW, I asked for 7000# axles, 7x18' trailer, ramp door, E track on the inside, Tongue extension, 12" raise the roof to 96" inside Height.

That might be a little different but maybe not :dunno:

I have 2 Haulmarks (one cargo and one snowmobile) and a Wells Cargo (snowmobile) at work, and I would definitely recommend the Haulmark. The snowmobile trailers get beat to hell getting dragged into areas that a truck with a trailer should probably never go, and the Haulmark is holding up very well. The Wells Cargo is ok, but the trailer seems to flex more so the doors have some issues sometimes. I know when I ordered the Haulmark, they had lots of options as far as height, width, door configurations, axles, frame size, etc. They are not the cheapest out there, but were competitive price wise, and seem to be holding up well.

Didn't know if this will help you out at all but this is what I got right now and I love this trailer. It's the nicest one that I have had to date. It is not the top of the line in build at all but it suits me well. It lights up nice on the outside and inside especially when you are working inside there are 2 over head lights. I actually pulled a 16' deck trailer in this thing to michigan. It would not fit now with the shelf unless I could get the tongue to go under the shelf. I think with the Tongue on that trailer it is like 19'...

That was really helpful! When I priced out the Haulmark, she said that the door was 36 x 72, I was like :eek: can I get that any taller, I am 6' already :lol: so they can bump it up to 78".

I have to go with a trailer with flat inside walls to stack doors against it but your trailer looks very similar to the one I will be getting. Thanks :brain: :cheers:

This trailer won't be getting too much abuse, hardly ever leaving the asphalt and only going to and from base (~4 miles)

Cool deal. Yeah I didn't know if that was a structural or integrity issue or not. But you will be glad to get that extra 6"s for that door.

Do the wheel wells stick out the same like mine does for the trailer you priced?

I could fit 16 tires on my trailer but after its loaded it would rub. I do think you can get a better quality trailer tire in 16" versus a 15"...

The one I am looking at has flat interior walls so that the there is not wheel well inside. It also comes with 16" wheels I believe. I dunno, I am going to go have a look on the way to Wichita and report back :)

Don't forget to take pictures! :p

How wide on the inside? I think I have like 82 inches on the inside of wheel wells...
