Location: Draper UT | We recently purchased an excellent Circle J 3 Horse Slant Bronco. I called Circle J, but they do not have any manuals older than 2010 model available. Is there any place you guys know where we could get a pdf, or a real manual for an older Circle J? Thanks |

       Location: Northern Utah | Manuals? I had no idea horsetrailer mfg included manuals. I've bought 4 horses over the years and other than a thank you letter for buying our product, most never included anything like a manual. Anything that was included was not much more than a collection of the manufactures brochures for the various components. i.e. Carrier A/C unit or the Domentic Fridge . |

Location: Draper UT | They said they had manuals, but for 2010 and newer. I really am just looking for stats on the trailer, like weight, size, recommended wheels/tires, replacement lights etc. The stickers on the tongue have worn off. Thanks |

       Location: Northern Utah | You can pull it across a scale and get the weight. If you look at the axles, you might be able to get a part number. Most trailer companies use the Dexter axles, so you can pull a user manual for the axles off their website. The brake assemblies are pretty universal. It just a matter of identifying the size. Most horse trailers have a 12" x 2" pad As far as lights, You can go into state trailer in Salt Lake or TJ trailer in Ogden and they can match up any light you have on your trailer or sell you additional lights that will work with your system. Wasatch Trailer in Layton used to be a Circle J dealer. I don't if they still are since Circle J was closed down and reopened under new ownership. But they are familar with the older Circle J's and could do any repair work. |

| Try e-bay. Everytime I have wanted a manual for something that is where I go. Good Luck |

| The manuals I have seen for horse trailers were very generic, and would not have any of the info you are looking for. There once was has a gerneric manual that is primarily safety related that several manufacturers used. Fit the liability bill, but worthless otherwise. For what you are looking for- go back to the manufacturer with the VIN. They may even make you a new sticker for it, some will. By the way- congrats on the new to you trailer!

Location: Draper UT | Thank you for your assistance. I will take it in, need the bearings repacked anyway. Then I can see what the dealer will do for me, otherwise I'll try the VIN to Circle J.
It is a great trailer for what we need, just 4h trips mainly. |
