    Older video but exactly what I’m about to try. My only question on a good video is when removing the old floor boards that run into the front tack room, is there any hard aspects with that?

    I have a 1962 Miley Eldorado II 2-horse trailer. This is super informative! My electrical on it is shot, so it's good to know where the wiring is. Hopefully When Time and Funds allow I'll be able to get someone to help me restore the floors and the electrical on it so I can sell it and get a bigger horse trailer. a 16.3hh Friesian cross won't ride comfortably in the trailer I have now xD

    The hardest part (to me) of doing this job is getting the boards in - especially under the wall between the tack room and horse area. Is there a vid that specifically covers this?

    Do you have any videos or information on how to rebuild/repair a dressing room door on a horse trailer? I have a 2001 circle J Rata three horse with a separate tack room and separate dressing room, both doors seem to be falling apart a bit May need to be realigned. Any information or help is greatly appreciated are awesome

      A good fabricator should be able to fix and/or align it. Travel trailer doors can sometimes be substituted when an original part isn't available.

    My daughter and I ripped out & are replacing the floor in the horse trailer, (new 2z12's). I laid the boards appropriatly, (on pallets to keep them just above my old dirt driveway (dust suppressor :)) and applied one coat (hot day done by 1pm) of my dirty cummins motor oil and diesel mixture, (50/50) on every one side of each board, intending 3 coats. Three nights later it spontaneously rained/hailed like a cow doing everything on a flat rock. They got real wet. The top boards have bowed one way ore another. Am I too late? A lot of people do 1 and done. I thought I was going to be an over achiever... Daddy would be proud. I'd ask him what to do and he'd tell me but, he's gone. I'd really appreciate your advice if you please. Thank you Fyi: I got 12 screws out using ATF and Acetone (50/50)... Youre right :)

      So sorry to hear this. It's best to use pressure treated wood. There are ways to straighten the warped wood, but not worth the time, in my opinion.

    Ever tried Fluid Film for undercoating and rust treatment?

    Does anyone know if the front center beam inside the trailer is structural? I've seen lots without them and I'm wondering if I could safely remove it.

      Did you not hear him explain that it held the electrical wiring? He stressed that removing it would cause a lot more work. Total re-wire job on top of the rust issues.

    Great video! Very to the point and practical. I am attempting to transform a horse trailer into a sound-proof rv. ( I needed the indoor height and wall strength.) Do you also sand down the metal under the trailer? All surface areas rust and the underside of the trailer is exposed to lots of water and rocks.

    Do you actually spray water in the trailer? Our water is so high in minerals it's corrosive!

    A dustless sandblaster could have stripped that whole trailer to bare metal in about two hours.

    Sir, please don’t generalize, every trailer I have ever bought, I checked both the roof and most importantly the frame/floor.
