    Boss is looking at ordering a Great Dane all aluminum 53' spread axle set at 48'. Specing it with 14 winches on each side, 24 chain hold downs, 4 tool boxes.

    Anyone have any experience with these trailers? So far they have been by far the best price.

    Very good trailer! Durable, when I was flatbedding Boyd Bros as a crane drop a coil on one, all it needed was new wood beams.

    I haven't heard any bad things about their trailers. I have a friend that has a 48' all aluminum, he is very happy with it.

    I don't think I ever seent a all aluminum dog. The combos are OK but there's better. Pulled a 05 combo dog but i like my 07 Renegade better. More stout frame and side rails.

    Only thing with these trailers are the WEIGHT. But they pay for themselves when a crane drops something on them.
