WW Repairs
As just about all of us have read here, certain models of WW trailers have defects that have resulted in a number of different problems. To one degree or another, this subject has come up on this for...

If it has windows on each side close to the rear it is a SL3005. The SL2805 doesn't have those windows. We asked for them but they wouldn't put them in for us for some reason.
What WW did to ours when we took it to them after the first year for warranty items was added 3 to 4 each angle braces on each side of the frame face to the bottom of the trailer body and one piece of horizonal brace down the middle of the frame underneath. WW just did it. We never talked to them about it and when we received our trailer back I noticed the frame had been repainted. I ask the rep helping us about it and he told me they are retrowing the 2805 and 3005 in this manner do to maybe some future frame issue's. I hadn't seen anything specific on the retro from anyone here on this site or WW when all that stuff was going on all the other SL frames. We thought it pretty good that they did in fact do that, but then again we were concerned that WW didn't contact us regarding it. We don't think it was an issue on these particular models so maybe it was just precautionary measures. That's how we looked at it anyway.
So when you look at the trailer you should see these, a total of 4, on the outside of the frame. One is directly behind the rear axle tires and acts as a metal tire/mud flap as well. I would think that the 3005 would have one additional brace added to it for the additional 2 feet of frame or maybe the same amount spaced out farther.
Hope this helps.
