    TI Trailer built by ELoader

    Looking at a trailer that is a tube trailer on an older Champion that was built in 2001, what should I be concerned about besides the tube rusting out? Is this one of the problem EZ Loader trailers that are listed in this Forum? Midway, Arkansas manufactured. Let me know your thoughts please!

    If it's like the tube trailer on my buddy's Champion, the brake lines run inside the tube frame. He had to replace the brake lines twice due to them rubbing on the inside of the trailer tube and causing them to leak fluid. The 3rd time it happened, he strung the brake lines along the outside of the trailer tube and hasn't had a problem since.
