I have a 45 year old trailer that is rotten. My thinking is to strip it down and then make a flatbed out of it.
An RV frame depends on the ‘box’ for rigidity. If all you use it for light or well spread out loads you might be ok.
A friend made one he uses to haul ATV’s he says it does the job but there’s a LOT of flex, twisting and sway.
My plan once I have ripped off all the RV stuff is to then tackle the frame. There will be rotten pieces. So, they will need to be cut away. Then, I will be adding more structure to it to make it strong enough to haul a car.
