AAA Trailers

🚧 Blowout on the side of I-96 = your whole weekend gone. Here's how to avoid it.

Trailer tires are NOT car tires. Stiffer sidewalls, higher load ratings, built for towing stress. Put car tires on a trailer and they flex, overheat, and let go — usually at the worst possible moment.
3 things people get wrong:

❌ Running car/truck tires on a trailer

❌ Going by tread depth — trailer tires age out at ~5 years no matter how they look (the rubber degrades)

❌ Running underinflated — the #1 cause of blowouts. Always check pressure COLD before you tow.

✅ We stock ST-rated (Special Trailer) tires + mounted-and-balanced tire/wheel combos, ready to bolt on. In stock right now in Howell:

🇺🇸 Memorial Day Weekend — Is Your Trailer Road-Ready?
Big weekend coming up. Whether you're hauling boats, campers, ATVs, or heading to the job early Tuesday morning — now's the time to give your trailer a once-over.
Here's your quick 5-minute pre-trip inspection 👇
✅ All lights working? Plug in and walk around. If something's dead, our step-by-step diagnostic gets you to the cause fast:
https://aaatrailer.com/pages/trailer-lights-not-working-diagnostic
✅ Tires inflated AND not aged out? Check the sidewall for max PSI — and remember trailer tires time out around 8 years even with good tread:
https://aaatrailer.com/pages/trailer-tire-age-6-year-rule
✅ Coupler latch fully engaged and locked? If it won't seat right, the "lift it 1/4 inch" trick fixes most of them:
https://aaatrailer.com/pages/trailer-coupler-wont-latch
✅ Safety chains crossed under the coupler? (They cradle the tongue if it ever drops.)
✅ Breakaway switch cable attached to the truck — to the truck itself, not the safety chains.

🚨 If your trailer PUSHES your truck when you brake — it's almost always one part.
A worn brake magnet. You can test one in 5 minutes with a multimeter.
We wrote the full diagnosis procedure — resistance specs, amp draw test, how to spot a burned-out coil, and exactly when to replace vs. when it's something else:
👉 https://aaatrailer.com/pages/trailer-brake-magnet-diagnosis-replacement

If yours fails the test, replace the complete brake assembly — magnet, shoes, springs, and backing plate all pre-built. It's cheaper than chasing individual parts, and you fix it once instead of three times.
We stock complete Dexter assemblies. Same-day shipping from Michigan. 20+ years of trailer parts.
Don't wait until you can't stop. 🛑

🔩 Secure Your Load Right — Aluminum Weld-On Tie Down Mounts
Your trailer is only as good as the tie-down points on it. Building a flatbed, utility trailer, or custom hauler? These aluminum tie down mounts are a must.
• 1/2" round bar, 7.5" long
• Weld-on installation
• Built for heavy equipment strapping
• Low profile — won't catch on cargo
• Aluminum = no rust, ever
Lighter and rust-proof vs. traditional steel D-rings. Landscapers and equipment haulers love these because they sit flush when not in use. Sold individually — buy exactly what you need.

📌 Your trailer bearings need to be repacked once a year. Here's the procedure — and the castle nut torque sequence that most people get wrong.
Bearing failure is the #1 cause of roadside trailer breakdowns. The fix takes about an hour and costs under $50 in parts.
What our step-by-step guide covers:
✅ Bearing part numbers by axle size (L68149/L44649 for 3,500 lb axles)
✅ The 3-stage castle nut procedure — torque to 50 ft-lbs, back off completely, finger tight, cotter pin
✅ Why you should NEVER reuse the old seal or cotter pin
✅ EZ-Lube vs. standard hubs — and the critical seal rule before greasing
✅ How to tell if your bearings have failed vs. just need repacking
If your hubs are hot after towing, that's a warning — not normal.

Still running incandescent trailer lights? Here's why that's costing you.

Old bulbs burn out from road vibration. They take a split second longer to illuminate — at 60 mph, that's over 15 extra feet before the driver behind you sees your brake lights. And they fail DOT inspections.

LEDs fix all of it:
INSTANT-ON — Full brightness the moment you touch the brakes
🔩 NO FILAMENTS — Vibration can't kill what isn't there
SEALED & WATERPROOF — No more fogged lenses or corrosion

Need Power Down on Your Dump Trailer? Meet the KTI DC36RA.

Most standard dump trailers use gravity to lower the bed. But if you haul on uneven ground, in tight spaces, or need precise bed control — you need a double-acting pump.

The KTI DC36RA gives you POWERED UP and POWERED DOWN:
• 12V DC motor with 6-quart poly reservoir
• Power up / power down operation
• Includes 2-button remote (UP/DOWN/IN/OUT) w 15ft cord

Why double acting matters:
✔️ Control bed speed going down
✔️ Lower the bed on slopes without it slamming
✔️ Required for spreader gate operation

💰 $429.00

Most dump trailer solenoid problems come down to one mistake — ordering the wrong type.
Here's how to tell them apart in 10 seconds:
🔴 SINGLE ACTING — KTI 391-2-C ($39)
Power goes UP. Gravity brings it down.
2-wire connection. Most common on standard dump trailers.
Your remote has 2 buttons? This is your solenoid.
🔵 DOUBLE ACTING — KTI 391-40 ($99)
Power goes UP and DOWN.
Twist-lock connectors. Required for power-down systems.
Your remote has 3+ buttons? You need this one.
Still not sure? Count your remote buttons. That's it.
Both in stock. Both ship same day from Howell, MI. 📦
