Replacing floor in stock trailer.
Replacing livestock trailer floor post by dawnrogerl fri jun 17 2011 1 01 am i have to replace my 16 ft.
The new boards with a little tapping perhaps should slide into the channel at by the door of the trailer.
Slot the board ends into the channels one at a time.
Measure internal size of floor required and call steel place and order the size you want they will cut it for you but there may be a surcharge.
Removal takes longer than installing.
First trim the wood to fit snugly in the frame.
And then how to get the new boards in it is an open stock trailer 14.
This is done by securing it with a few screws from the top side.
I was trying to figure out what type of wood to go with.
It normally comes in a 1200x2400 sheet but they can also get 1500 x 3000 which.
I know i need to do top.
The boards are run width wise about 6 and have bracing underneath they are not fastened but slip into a c channel on each end.
Pressure treated pine treated spf oak treated oak or something else.
When i got there one of the boards on one side was completely gone.
Can t seem to find a way to get the old boards out.
The last board fit the final space with the same spacing as the rest of the trailer floor.
The floor in my trailer is 2 1 2 years old.
A wooden floor is pretty easy to replace just get the boards and fit them into the trailer although it s not always so straightforward.
Get your drill and screws.
I am about to replace the floor of an 18 stock trailer.
I will be replacing.
The last step to complete this project is to reinstall the angle iron at the back of the trailer to cap off the ends of the boards.
I can not get 2x oak so i am going to use pressure treated 2x.
If you want to use the original holes get dirty and drill your pilot.
