[AT] Trailer floors (was) lots of saw mills OOPS

[David Bruce]

Charlie,
Somebody else with CRS? <g>

I've been following this thread particularly because of two issues I have.
The first is the need to replace a couple pieces of wood decking on my 
utility trailer.  It was built with PT deck boards as the floor and most 
likely I'll replace with the same.  Relatively cheap and since no 
tracked vehicles <g> should last another 20 years easily.
The second is a total replacement of the wood deck on an old farm 
trailer.  The running gear is sound although I might need to replace the 
wheel hubs/rims with something more common, the deck is showing the wear 
of 50+ years of use.
I might have enough rough sawn oak packed back to do the replacement but 
I'm not against other ideas.
