Are the Bow stop and winch post aluminum also? Leafs or torsion?
Amazing price! I was quoted $5500 for an AmeraTrail for a 21' trailer. Even if you back out the $1100 for the powdercoat, that Manning is a great value.
Bummer he didn't lower the bow stop/winch post to account for Formula's lower bow eye.

About 32 feet,surge brakes have always worked fine for me plus I tow this with a dually.Never had a trailer with anything else so I bought what I knew.and yes it is very stout I think its heavier than my old steel one.

Winch post is aluminum,bow stop is steel.It has torsion suspension.As for the winch with the way Formula puts the hook I really don't think it could be lower.My old trailer was to low and it was a huge pain to load so i'm ok were is.I was running 80 coming back from Michigan it tracks perfectly.

No,he built it from specs he had he did say they have done 292 trailers before.It was a perfect fit just had to move the bow stop about 2 inches but Rob told me I might have to do that.I think a 311 would need a triple axle but I'm fine with a tandem weight wise thats probably why the difference in price.
