    Spread axle trailer put a tremendous amount of force on the frame when going through dips or down steep driveways or hump rail road crossings. Steps take all that force in the thinnest section of the frame.

    Doesn’t look like a Reitnouer to me based on the front corner and they don’t use that wide of boards on the deck. I’m thinking it might be an East.
