Aluminum 2 Place Trailer

[drew562]

I have a floe 14' with top. It's a tandem with electric brakes and has 50.000 km easy on it. Haven't had to fix a thing. Western boat lift st Albert sells them. These are the cats ass so to speak. You can buy them without the top also

I need it for one more trip then I'll put it up for sale just before Christmas.

How much will you be putting it up for?

Rowdy, I just took this trailer in on trade. It's a Newman tagged as a PJ, 11' + 2' with a torsion axle. The gentleman had a custom ramp extension added which makes it nice for loading. He also added 3 boxes of Superglides to the deck and ramps. He used it twice and it looks brand new! $2,500.00 + GST = $2,625.00 total.

If you're interested, let me know. I haven't even advertised it yet.

Thats a nice trailer. Looks like 15" tires too. I'm hoping to find something around the $2,000 mark however. Just starting to look so not really ready to buy just yet. But that is exactly what I am looking for. I will absolutely keep that and you in mind now! Thank you for posting this.

Plus I gotta buy the 2nd sled still! lol. Don't want to get a trailer before I have the sled. haha

No worries Rowdy! It does have 205/75R15 tires.

?? $600 differance you are going to get a 3 year old trailer with a gillon miles! Flash a smile and zing him $2500 cash and be done! IMO That is a nice traler. I think buddy from work same trailer rigged up new Triton was over $3500...if I remember right.

No question that's a nice trailer. And sounds like the right price. But...like I said, just asking for opinions on trailers now. This is just a tease getting people selling all these nice trailers lol. I want to get the sled first, see where my $$ is at THEN get a trailer. Just want to see what brands I should research first. And you guys have all given me very good info!

If your patient and willing to drive to Edmonton, Martin usually has massive deals on triton 2 place trailers around this time of year. I picked a brand new one up 2 years ago for $2000 plus tax for a basic 12' v nose open trailer with 15" steel wheels and 8' ramp.

Last year I believe they were selling them for $1800? I do remember it being less that what I paid.

I bought mine in 2009 from Martin. Paid $2300 + GST. I haven't seen them @ $1,800 before.

It was in an ad in auto trader. Gotta wait for a sale.

But no front sheild / ramp. no spare some have no jack, no super glides! But all that can be added easiely for sure and Triton is a great trailer.

Exactly. All it came with was screw type ski clamps and a ramp. No jack, spare tire, or anything else.

I did buy the jack separate but can't remember the price. I want to say $90.

Anyone hear of Aluma trailers? Checked Airdrie trailer and they have a nice looking one on there. $4,000....but I'm sure I could find a better price.

I got a aluma trailor. We paid 2500 for it 5 years ago in red deer. I know i phoned back to them before and they had some aluma with fiberglass tops on for sale @ 2500, that was 2 years ago. Aluma is a awasome trailer, and we bash the hell out of it with no service. I mean 80km/hr going up to chatter lots. Had a tire blow out on it but we were seriously asking for trouble, no tread and it was low on air. Only real complaint is the torsion axle is sprung a little tight for 1 sled hauling, sleds moves around. To be expected when it was built for two though.

it is a v-nose with ramps in the front. Biggest thing we did with it was sheild in the ramp fully as most are only half sheild, made a HUGE diffrence on the amount of road crap on the sleds.

tandoms are nice, but really if you maintain it IE grease the hubs, you ownt have a problem. Tandom also costs more to run down the road, 2 axles instead of 1. As well its just two more tires to buy.

 

[oler1234]

Ohh and forgot to mention they are really light. I mean me and my g/f hand bomb the ass end of this thing around in tight parking lots with it un hooked from the truck (empty)

 

[shoppingcart111]

My newman is light (probably around the same as the aluma and triton as their basically the same trailer), I push it into my garage by hand and can even kinda pick up the back end and drag it sideways to make more room, and I have a f*&ked up back. So their light!

Flaman trailers handle Aluma trailers. They are out in Nisku park Leduc. With salt sheilds and mag wheel and spare I paid $3350 4yrs ago. Just to give you an idea of cost.

 

[goodngrubby]

If you decide to go steel, I have an 8' x 10' drive on/off SWS I'd sell you for $1300.

I've got a tandem Newmans Sled Bed. I bought tandem because I have a dune buggy I may need to haul around and I would be over weight with a single axle. Newman's is the only company that I know of that is selling tandem axle sled trailers. As far as moving them around just lower the front jack and the back axle will come off the ground. I can also shift my trailer a side in the garage even with tandem. They are lite.
My neighbor has an Aluma two doors down. If you want to see a side by side comparison Airdrie isn't that far

There is an aluminum 12' (with a salt shield) being sold within the classified forum here on S&M. It's going for $2000. Seems cheap considering the age.
