2023 Wilson Trailer Roper Equestrian Bumper Hitch
This bumper hitch is uniquely designed with safer horse transportation in mind. It is just like the Roper Equestrian Series gooseneck but in a bumper hitch model.
Check out how soundly this trailer is built in the standard features section and then consider all the options Wilson has available for you to make one of these a must-have trailer for your horses.
Features may include:
SLAT STYLE CONSTRUCTION- The double-walled Slat Style walls are constructed using aluminum extruded tubes, which are bonded together to form a very strong and durable wall. By forming the wall in this manner, Wilson has created a very smooth interior wall without any vertical posts plus there are no areas to collect animal waste and become a biosecurity problem.
- Wilson’s spring-loaded catch will firmly grab ahold of the door when you swing it closed behind your load. You will then have more time to safely engage the lock rod and secure the door all the way shut. Feel more confident and more protected with the patented Slam Catch.
- With the Foreman’s aluminum sub frame, not only are the weight savings big, there are no steel components other than the axles to lose paint, cause rust or electrolysis…The enemy of aluminum trailers.
- The beefy aluminum A-frame coupler provides strength to the trailer where it is important.
- Without vertical posts, the interior walls of the Wilson slat style trailer are some of the industry’s smoothest. Wilson Trailer also takes great care to eliminate sharp edges on their gate connections to help curtail animal bruising. With double walled construction dents, caused by animals on the inside, do not show up on the outside.
- The versatile tack room is available with either a straight or slanted wall. Access into the nose area from the tack room creates even more convenient storage space. A lockable, sealed tack room door keeps all your gear secure and out of the elements. Both the tack room door and the additional door can be located on the trailer’s driver or curb sides.
- Roof skin stretched to maximum efficiency makes it uncommonly tough for extra life.
- Livestock loaded into a stock trailer puts pressure on all connection points within the trailer and those connection points need to be strong especially when the trailer is moving and stopping. Wilson uses full-height, beefy hinges connected to the floor and ceiling of the trailer which actually become part of the trailer’s structure. Wilson’s full-frames gates have solid latches so you will feel confident about the containment of your livestock time after time.
- The rear of a stock trailer can drag when pulled across uneven surfaces. This scraping action can roll dirt and gravel up into the sub frame, damage crossbars and potentially pull the rear of the trailer out. To guard against this, Wilson puts in a full-width skid plate across the rear of their sub frames.
