Years ago I worked in a trailer factory. Trailers went down the assy line crossways, and the cart on the track was relatively narrow - on the order of several feet. They"d start with the frame, put down tarpaper and then the flooring (cheap OSB of the time). Carpeting was put on the bedroom end, livingroom, etc. linoleum on the other floors. Then they"d put the walls up - pre constructed on another workbench. Inevitably there would be a trailer with just frame, flooring, and carpeting waiting when the lunch whistle blew. Some guy would gobble his lunch, and flatten out on the carpet for a short nap. Soon"s he was zzzzzz, some other guy would take a flying leap on the far other end of the trailer launching the dozing guy about three feet in the air. Those frames are flimsy, and without the superstructure, you couldn"t even pull them down the road. Your best bet is to salvage the metal, and sell it to the scrap dealer. Thake whatever money you get, and add enough to get a substantial trailer. I can guarantee you somewhere in the trailer"s life someone is going to show poor judgement and far overload it. Disaster waiting to happen.
