A different kind of wheel survey

I finally bought a trailer, not exactly what I was looking for but I’m happy with it.

Appalachian Trailer, Pro Series Hyd Tilt Diamond Car Hauler, 20′, 10k lbs.

This is what it has now.

Herb’s Restoration Parts ?

Hello everyone,

I know Herb’s is a popular resource for parts but I haven’t used them yet. I’ve got about $1200 in a cart but I wanted to see if anyone has recommendations on what I may want to avoid before I pull the trigger. It seems that Herb’s, to some extent, is a clearing house for several vendors.

Has anyone had any bad experiences?

Thanks
