Hello Johnny, thanks for reaching out. Sadly, no we are not able to look up trailer parts using a VIN. There just isn't a universal VIN database for trailers like there is for motor vehicles. Typically only the manufacturer of the trailer would be able to look up a VIN, and that can be hit or miss.
That said, I can definitely still help you find parts and get you going in the right direction.
Like for example if you are needing new brakes, we can determine what you need by looking at the axle capacity, or by using the casting number on your hub.
Is there something specific you were looking for? Let me know and I am happy to help. I can let you know the best way to track down the right parts.
