8.5 wide for sure, either Featherlite or Charmac for aluminum.

is a vendor on here that some have dealt with and are happy with his product and service. It's a start :beer:

X2. I got a Legend Trailmaster 7 x 27 from Ron last spring and I'm very happy with it. Legend also has a 8.5 low boy. Ron is great to deal with too. He will have some trailers at the sled show in Edmonton.

We have 2 rance aluminum enclosed trailers and love them. They've been great and tow like a dream. Insulated with heat is def a perk. Get a pull out step over the bar, much better. 8.5' wide is a must. center your door on one side then fuel door(s) on other. fuel doors on driver side usually work good so u can fuel the truck and the sleds at the same time.

If u can get one, Beavertails are good so you dont destroy your door edge with carbides. Use superglides on your doors for direction and traction. We put 4-6" of diamondplate around the edges, stops u from bashing up the walls with tires or skis, undersling the propane tank, and as to whether an angled down nose is good or not, i havent decided personally. one of our trailers has it, one doesnt. im always concerned with bashing my head loading throu the front door, but it has yet to happen! FINGERS CROSSED lol

happy shopping :)

The 26' (total length) rance with heater and propane tank and cabinets, no toys, is approx 2600lb, maybe a little less.
The 23' (total length) rance with heater and propane tank and cabinets, no toys, is approx 2300lb, maybe a little less.
The difference is that the royal is a steel frame trailer and the Rance is an aluminum frame trailer.
