After looking at prices of decent trailers in the UK, I have decided to build my own. Can anyone suggest a good mail/internet order Store in USA for trailer parts, such as suspension, hubs, rollers, etc. Shipping the parts to the UK is not a problem as I happen to work for a cargo airline, so I get cheap freight. Any suggestions are most appreciated.

I recommend Champion Trailer Parts company. I have ordered parts from them before and been pleased with them.<br /><br />championtrailers.com/<br /><br />EDIT: Please do not post direct links to businesses. Referrals are okay.

northerntool.com has an extensive trailer parts section and what appears to be good prices.

Northerntool.com is my favorite. They have virtually everything from coupler to lights and everything in between. They are always my first stop.

Since you get a deal on freight, why not buy the whole trailer?

Well JRJ, good idea but stuffing a whole trailer onboard might be pushing the privilege a bit.<br />I have plenty of sites to browse through - thank you all who contributed!!

A brand new trailer isn't that difficult to unbolt and ship, is it? What brand do you want?

Another good one is Eastern Marine in Delaware. I have used them and Champion and they are both good. Champion also has tons of good tech articles for those who are learing trailer repair stuff for the first time. BTW, Champion also sells aluminum boat trailers that look really well made.

My vote is Champion. They are VERY knowledgable and take the time to make sure you understand what you are buying vs the application.
