diamond plate trailers better then wood?....or does it make a difference?..

wood is lighter and cheaper, but depending on where you live you might have to replace the wood every couple years.

I always lay out the truck when i can, if you are dragging the rockers across asphalt at 50mph then wood sitting still isnt gonna hurt them. The wedge trailer has angle iron to keep the wheels from coming off the ramps so i cant lay them out. I always put 2 straps over the rear axle and through the wheels and one through the hole in the front crossmember (s10) The key is to triangulate the straps as much as possible. In an enclosed trailer be sure the D rings are tied into a floor crossmember and as stated before UNHOOK YOUR BATTERY. Dont want another cha ching incident.

I have a full size inside of a 24 ft enclosed. I pull it 75 mph everywhere i go. I have 4 axle straps that go over the engine cross member in the front and they criss-cross. 2 more axle straps over the rear axle and criss-crossed. that heavy bitch ain't never moved. Knock on wood, i am pulling to anderson this week. from Newport news. and back. I always leave mine aired up but you can not have any leaks either. I don't have to worry about 2X4's and body rubbin on straps. I also use 10,000lb straps. if you don't use big shit you might lose your shit. i seen that one day on the way to ECN... not me.....

I am not sure why the guy siad to unhook your batteries tho..... anybody got an answer ???
