TheSDTrucker Posted October 14, 2018 Posted October 14, 2018 Hello everybody, tonight I just started the Wilson livestock trailer and I have a few questions to begin with. Can anybody show me what they did with the frame assembly? The instructions are not very clear and I want to make sure I get it right. Has anyone ever plumbed this trailer too? I would love to but I cannot find any good pictures of the airlines. Any help is appreciated!
TheSDTrucker Posted October 14, 2018 Author Posted October 14, 2018 Got a little bit of progress with some electrical and some piping based off a picture I found online.

TheSDTrucker Posted October 15, 2018 Author Posted October 15, 2018 (edited) I got a little bit more done last night with some air line plumbing. It really tested my patience, but I think it turned out okay. Edited October 15, 2018 by TheSDTrucker
clayton Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 Got a idea! Next time use phone wire. Remove the outside part use the different color wire. There are 2 kinds the cheap stuff from a dollar store it kinda hard to work with and after a while the color part starts to crack and a little translucent. If you have a wal mart get the good stuff a little princely but it holds up good. And 10' last me years .

I will definitely look into that today, I was going to see if there was a better option than thick fishing wire. Do you just glue it in with regular plastic cement? And can you just cut it with scissors?

Mopar - D Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 Brenden I just finished building mine. I built the floor sections first and used one of the sides as a template for the front section to get the correct angle. Then I attached the front and one side to the floor. Then I attached the other side but before I attached the sides I attached the rear doors. Next I assembled the roll up door and installed it in the roof then I attached the roof. This worked out good for me if you have any questions let me know.
