I side with Greg. A Horse Trailer is basically a Uni-body design and removal of the side walls and roof does not mean that it will remain structually sound ,however if the trailer is a open top, this presents another option. Lowering the side wall height but still maintaining the reinforced sidewall in some fashion may work. I don't believe complete removal of the sidewall will render you a flat bed trailer. I would salvage the Axle and Brake system and Hitch and construct a new Framed Flat Trailer. A trip to a Dealer for a look see will show you the design needed. How ever you proceed remember that you are intending to haul on a Public Hiway and does the Public have any thing to fear for their safety by your actions.
