Hey Jim, it would be in your best interest to replace the tires now even though they look like they are fine. Trailer tires are only really good for 4-6 years before they start breaking down which makes them much more prone to failure. So they might…

You need to use the same size. Sometimes when the sizes are really close you can get away with using a different size, but an over 2-1/2" difference is massive and you'll need to purchase something like the #LHAW133. This is a 235/80R16 load…

How can I secure my vehicle during transport on a car hauler?
Tie-down systems are your best friend. E-Track systems with ratchet straps and wheel chocks work really well. You can also use adjustable wheel nets or axle straps to keep everything snug and secure.
What kind of ramps can I use to load vehicles onto my car hauler?
Aluminum ramps are great for most vehicles. For low-clearance cars, foam ramps reduce scrape risk. Choose heavy-duty ramps for heavy equipment, or folding ramps for compact storage.Selecting the right ramp depends on your vehicle’s weight, clearance, and how you plan to use it.
What can I do to improve my trailer’s brakes?
Upgrading to electric brakes is a great start. It’s also worth checking your hubs and drums regularly and keeping your bearings, seals, and caps in good shape. A little maintenance goes a long way.
How do I keep my cargo and tools organized?
You can add all kinds of storage options! Tire racks, cabinets, folding tables, and hose racks are super handy. Even smaller things like shelves and bottle racks can make a big difference in keeping everything in its place.
