[TheForge] Fw: [EK-Equine] Trailering question....

Thu Apr 3 01:20:02 2003

Phlip what is he trying to carry? as someone who has re-built his
horsetrailer more then once. and just finished building a new farrier box
for the new truck. I might be able to help . but to be honest I can't see
him loading more weight in it then it was made for. horse trailers are made
a lot tougher then the cargo trailers out there.
