Trailer tail light suggestions

admin

I have a 16ft utility trailer I bought several years ago that is now in need of new tail lights. I'm planning to relocate them from down low near the back to maybe on or just behind the fender. My question is this, what is a good source/ brand of light for this application. I'd like to do it once and be done with it for the life of the trailer. Thanks.Ranger 250 GXTSmith Gas Axe
Reply:The sealed lamps (4" round or 6" oval) in rubber grommets last a super long time and are reasonably priced. Similar LED lamps can be found for somewhat reasonable prices (northern tool, etc). I'm not sure of the quality of the lower priced LEDs.DB

Reply:I see lots of trailer lights broken off. I use 6 in pipe about 4 or 5 inches deep. weld it to the frame and put a 4 inch trailer light inside to protect it..we have a set on a dovetail trailer and they get run over and smashed on a regular basis...light stays protected and it easy to change bulbs if needed.
Reply:All my trailers get either round or oval rubber mounted sealed beams or leds for tail lights.Yeah, I know, but it'll be ok!Lincoln Square wave 255Miller Vintage mig30a spoolgunThermal Dynamics Pacmaster 100xl plasmaSmith mc torchEllis 1600 band saw
Reply:When I move the lights to behind the fender I usually weld a piece of angle over top of it because people use the light for a step

Reply:Go to the nearest place that sells semi parts. The led cost more but they are worth it
