Have a question, does this look like a decent trailer for the price? It is for my ZJ, i'm gonna try and get ahold of the guy to get more info (width, length, GVW) but wanted to see if I should consider this trailer or keep looking.

Need a LOT more info that just that to decide if it's a decent price. I bought my 16' 7klb wood deck trailer with brakes on both axles brand new for not much more than that.

Assuming it has electric trailer brakes, and its a 7000# gvw trailer, 7' wide 16-18' long, all wiring works, 3500# axles, etc would you buy it or no? There are other trailers but this one matches my truck. What else should I ask?

What size and type is the coupler? How new are the tires? Any dry rot on them? How much tread do they have? What is the jack rated for?

Also, can't tell- does it have slide out ramps?

I have found that:

The trailer is 16' x 8', all lights work, 2x 5k axles, all lights work, I have asked for coupler size and type, make sure all the tires are good and no wiring problems, i'll post up more when available, any thoughts?
