We bought this used 48' Transcraft combo Highboy a few months back & decided since it seems to work good for us to sandblast & paint the lower steel section & when we started blasting found things quite rough at the front near the kingpin. We have now cut the kingpin plate loose & dropped it & plan to replace the web section of the two main beams. The upper & lower flanges look good, but the web repairs will be somewhat extensive labor wise. We are into it now, so plan to see it through. We did not pay much for the trailer & feel we can make a good trailer out of it once the repairs are completed.
