Currently have an older 5'X10' steel frame utility trailer with a wood plank floor and wood side boards. I use it to haul my ATV and whatever gear won't fit inside the box of my truck...usually tree stands, bait, coolers, etc. The trailer is in decent shape, but beginning to show its age. I'm planning to replace the floor this winter. When attempting to mount a new set of tires this week I discovered the bolt pattern is obsolete and no place I checked with is able to get rims that will fit it. As I debated putting a new axle on or replacing the hubs I also started to consider just selling it and getting a similar sized aluminum utility trailer.
I don't know much about what's available in utility trailers and am curious what forum members have to offer for advice not only on makes of trailers, but maybe opinions on new trailer vs. repairing the old, and steel vs aluminum.
Thanks.
