Ainsworth—Your One Stop Snowmobile Trailer Repair Shop


Articles / December 17, 2015

If you are like most snowmobile enthusiasts, you have a trailer to get your machine to your favorite trails. Also, if you are like many snowmobilers, you don’t necessarily have a dedicated snowmobile trailer, though such trailers have become increasingly popular over the years. No matter what you use to get your toys into the great outdoors, Ainsworth Trailer Repair of Denver can either repair it or make useful modifications for hauling snowmobiles or ATVs, making Ainsworth your one stop trailer repair  shop.

Improving Flatbed Trailers For Snowmobilingains

Many snowmobilers use flatbed trailers for recreating, especially as these trailers are useful year round for utility work and for hauling ATVs. The problem is that snowmobiles are tremendously rough on many flatbed trailers, especially those with wooden decks.

Ainsworth Trailer Repair can modify your flatbed trailer to be more snowmobile friendly. We can rebuild your deck with marine grade plywood or pressure treated lumber. We could give it diamond plating in key spots. We can also install ski guides to make trailering your snowmobiles much easier and safer.

Finally, Ainsworth can fabricate or install an aftermarket rock/salt shield on the leading edge of your trailer to keep your machines safe from gravel and road deicer.

Improving Your Tilt Trailer

Many snowmobilers use tilt trailers, with and without covers, to transport their machines. For the skilled rider, these trailers dispense with the need for ramps, and make for a lighter and easier to haul trailer in many cases. However, even these trailers can stand to be improved in several respects.

Some tilt trailers use a spring to counter balance the deck. Like all springs the type used on a tilt trailer will develop fatigue from use. More expensive tilt trailers use a gas strut instead of a spring, and we can install one for yours if you want better control when tilting your trailer deck.

Driving up a tilt ramp, especially without another person to help with guiding, intimidates many snowmobilers. Ainsworth Trailer Repair can install a winch on your tilt trailer, a feature found only on the highest end factory trailers. Imagine never again having to gun your throttle to get your snowmobile, or your ATV for that matter, just to get it safely on the trailer.

If you want these modifications to look like OEM equipment rather than hacks, look no further than our world class trailer repair shop.
