Location: Saratoga, Ca | I just bought at 1993 Trojan, 2 horse, straight load condition in good but not great condition. 1) One side has a double snap attachment to attach the horse to the trailer after the horse has been loaded. The other side just has the ring. I use the double snap attachment and connect directly to the halter on one side and use the lead rope connected to the trailer mounted ring on the other. Should I buy a second double snap attachment? If so, were do I get one? 2) On one side there is a rubber pad facing the front of the trailer below the padded area which hits the horse's chest. One side has the rubber pad (described above) near the front legs, the other side has nothing. Is this an important pad (again below the pad that hit their chest? If so, where do I get one? Thanks! |

Location: missouri | Hi. Is this your first trailer? you may have bigger concerns than double hooks... you can get them at almost any farm supply store (TSC/Orcheln's/etc). You might need to take up mats and look at the FLOOR. Is the trailer steel? if so, you might want to crawl under it and check out the frame on it. It is an older trailer, it may be great but just make sure it is really solid so you and your horse will be safe when you haul. The pads can be replaced at Redneck trailer supply. They are not expensive. Good luck, and happy trails.. |
