I have a 22' trailer, with a 5' tongue, instead of a standard 4' tongue. One of the custom features I had built into it. The other features I had done, were extra tie down points, extended the bed to same width as the outside of my fenders, 8 lug 7200 pound axles, brakes on both, My tral rig is heavy, around 6K, but with the addition to two truck tool boxes for camping stuff and tools and spares, also has a 9K winch, a battery, a 15 gallon fuel cell, a place to put my Honda 3000 IS generator, and a step to slide into the receiver hitch to get up into my truck/camper. Without all the add ons, I wanted a longer trailer so I would have room for anything longer and/or heavier. I found out long ago, that just because it "fits" on the trailer, doesn't mean you have the weight distributed right. A longer trailer allows you to situate a longer vehicle so that it doesn't over or under weigh the tongue weight. I say get it, clean it up and paint it. Go ahead and plan on re-wiring it. One thing I have found consistent to most all trailers is that the wiring is done on the cheap and most often by someone who doesn't know how to wire anything. Check out the brakes, and most likely replace the tires. I am still running the trailer tires that come on mine, but when I replace them, I will use the Firestone transforce tires. I had a local trail;er builder to make mine. 3 years ago I ordered it and had it in 4 days, not sure how long is lead time is now. T&W trailers.
