Aluminum frame trailers

[Shadow Catcher]

This is being built for us by Eye4Design and while I have been very involved with the design, which lights, which tounge box, 6gal gas electric water heater... the choice of materials was theirs. When I started looking for a tear the main criteria involved an all aluminum frame and certain other things.
The exterior is Filon and the interior is EGS backer, and quite frankly I have no idea what the later is other than it is what you see in most RV's

Interesting topic. I have a aluminum framed garage Picked this up a month ago. This is a 2000 Wehaul 28 Foot Car Hauler. It's my temporary garage at the cabin. This is the only trailer I've seen with a all aluminum frame and fiberglass body. Down side is I can't find ANYTHING about the company. Soon this will will have up-grades!

Some WeHaul info:

Would be more interesting if the 6x10 and 6x12 came taller.

Yes, I have saw this and others that sell these (24 ft largest found and no Aluminum frame) What I can't find is company information with complete product line, technical information. I can't even find the company logo. (however, one night I did find the logo on the Net and now, I have know idea where that was). My trailer is 6ft 1/2 inside (7 would be better, since I'm 6'2").

Looks like they have both steel and aluminum frame trailers with a number of options.

Is there any issues, or something I need to pay attention to when I add a 30AMP chassis ground from a converter to the aluminum frame? I picked up an Aluminum ground block and I purchased a stainless steel lag bolt to bolt it to the frame. I will attach the bare copper ground to the block.

I hear the company went out of business. Is this true and do you still get your trailer???????

FWIW, I found two references online to them being owned by Forest River. The current Forest River web site doesn't list them, and a trip through the Internet archives wayback machine does not provide any pointers from the Forest River web site's update history. I'm half wondering if perhaps they weren't renamed to "Haulin" (with the donkey picture) when Forest River acquired them, due to a trademark infringement with U-Haul?

I spent a few weeks back in June researching trailer manufacturers in south Georgia and Indiana, trying to determine what factory was making which no-name cargo trailer. Yours is the first reference to We Haul that I have come across, and it is piquing my interest even though I just bought a trailer.....

Thanks for the input. The title of this thread interested me. I'm thinking of starting a thread asking for inputs to this company. The title lists WeHaul as the manufacturer. It would be intersting to know some of these small companies building custom cargo trailers.

I bought this used. The trailer was built in 2000. It has some very interesting attributes that I'll post some pics of soon. One down side is that they weren't very consistent with wire color. I would really like to get a wiring diagram, but doubt thats possible!

Our trailer is still in the process of being completed, Eric is the only one working on it and part time, and whether it is the last one, is open to debate. Construction is similar to Forest River, aluminum frame, choice in materials but they are not related.

The problem is that how long that completion will take it is now ten months over due and we have lost the summer camping season. My hope is that I will have it in time for a conference I will be speaking at in November out in California. If it is I will be traveling out seeing friends and relatives along the way and heading to San Diego and east.
Rest assured that when when I do pick it up I will do a photo session.
