We get 5 years out of brand new dump trailers that we haul wood with. After 5 years they're rust buckets

Getting to be a toss up nowadays if the truck will rust out or the transmission/engine will puke first.

have you tried oiling the trailer

get them new and fluid film them heavy inside every tube and rail you can get in ?

then wash them come spring and fluid film heavy again in September?

if you are only getting 5 years just waste oil might even be an option spray them down heavy in late September


America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

Roads and parking lots look like the Bonneville Salt Flats around here when they dry.

Sell the trailer as a rust bucket.

I should try fluid film or used oil
