Replacing livestock trailer floor post by dawnrogerl fri jun 17 2011 1 01 am i have to replace my 16 ft. The floor in my trailer is 2 1 2 years old.

New floor in the cattle trailer. I am about to replace the floor of an 18 stock trailer. A wooden floor is pretty easy to replace just get the boards and fit them into the trailer although it s not always so straightforward. The last board fit the final space with the same spacing as the rest of the trailer floor.

And then how to get the new boards in it is an open stock trailer 14. Slot the board ends into the channels one at a time. The boards are run width wise about 6 and have bracing underneath they are not fastened but slip into a c channel on each end. I bout had a heart attack.

First trim the wood to fit snugly in the frame. If you want to use the original holes get dirty and drill your pilot. I know i need to do top. This is done by securing it with a few screws from the top side.

I will be replacing. I was trying to figure out what type of wood to go with. I just bought it used 1997 delta and need to replace a couple of boards is there a trick to. I can not get 2x oak so i am going to use pressure treated 2x.

The last step to complete this project is to reinstall the angle iron at the back of the trailer to cap off the ends of the boards. Removal takes longer than installing. Measure internal size of floor required and call steel place and order the size you want they will cut it for you but there may be a surcharge. Get your drill and screws.
