I believe all new trailers need brakes on all axles by law.

I hang over a couple of inches on each side; no problem.  That said, you need stout fenders if you're rolling over them.

^ I'm seeing them new for that price or close to it. Looking to stay under a grand, or I can't really justify buying used. Not sure how much I weigh, its just a stock Jeep with 37's and 60's, probably pretty light.

I haven't seen an 18' dove 7000# WOOD with 2 brake axles with new tires (not take off police tires), fenders, jack, and ramps for less than $1805 without a spare.  I looked hard for months.  That one is a diamond plate steel hauler.

I bought a 10,000# due to the beast being so heavy. 

There is one in one of your links for a little over $1700, I don't need 18' anyway, and the 16' is around $1500. There is a guy on eBay in KY called Bluegrass Trailers for $1400-1500 for 18' and little more for steel deck, but they may have only one braking axle. Either way it doesn't matter since I am trying to stay around 1000.

I'll check the guy in canton ga where i bought my trailer he usually keeps a good selection of used trailers. I bought a 14 with 2ft dovetail dual axle brakes with new tires all led lights, think its 82 or 83 wide It was 3 years old. And it was close to 1,000. If u want u can look at the pics of it on my project toyota build

I prefer wood deck over metal, mainly because the metal heats up in Summer and is uncomfortable to lie on.
