Anyone know of a good 48' or longer 102" wide air ride flatbed spread axle at a good price? Have chased around a bunch only to find junk billed as ready to go. Thanks & have a Blessed day.

Theres a 48' flat in the classifieds section at the top of this page. Its not a spread but looks to be in decent shape.

Ya, that looked to be about the worst part. The rest looked like heavy surface rust. It looked like a two year old did the wiring fixes on it though. I imagine it would be cheap but not sure sometimes people think there stuff is golden.

Trailer has only been there for a month, could've been parked in some other county though but not around here. We have family all over up here. I'd by it for $3500 all day but I think it would be in the $6k to $8k range.

That being a composite trailer and the steel corroded that bad, I'd be awful concerned about the bi-metalic corrosion where the aluminum is bolted to the steel. You could easily sink $3-5k into that trailer to re-wire it, blast and paint the frame, metal fabrication and welding, fix the flooring, etc....

Next time you ready to buy a trailer call me i find them in that shape for $3,500 to $4,500 all day long i would never buy something like that for that much money soon as you put a 44,000lb load them tires are gona start poping been there done that i got a 99 53ft step deck combo air ride a few weeks ago for $7,500

I'm not buying it. I would for $3500 just to have a flatbed around for hauling hay and corn pellets. Sheamus was looking for a trailer and I pass this one a couple times a week. Hows the Freightliner?

That is unreal! I would be out of business if my truck was down that long or in jail, either way it wouldn't be good.
