    Trailer on an 05 Triton

    Looking into an 05 tr20x but I'm scared of the trailer. It doesn't seem to have issues but I've heard horror stories. Should I be cautious?

    Just look it over very close. Take a hammer with you, when you hit it in various spots it should ting. If its a thud then it is rusted inside the tube. Mine was a 08 and it is in the scrape yard.

    My 2005 is a c frame and it has no
    signs of rust. Has been kept in a garage since new. Brakes have not worked in a while but don't really
    need them with a heavy tow vehicle. Just look it over real good before you decide.
