I got a better deal than I expected.

I had exactly the opposite happen to me. I could see the frame of the
Trillium 1300 I was looking at was odd. It was made of C channel, or so it seemed. The mosquitos were vicious! I looked at the inside of the trailer carefully, but not so close to the outside. On the way home I stopped for gas and got my first look at the under side of trailer.
Leading axle.
I have no idea what trailer this frame came from. It is not Buba engineered. The front still comes up to a higher level at the
propane tank shelf. Those "bends" are accomplished by pieces of bent 1/8" steel plate that is formed into a C channel, but not square. They are a taller C at one end then the other. The pieces fit too well at the welds for it to be a one off. I have actually seen an ad for another
Trillium 1300 which clearly had a C channel bumper, so maybe there was a line of leading axle
Trillium 1300's,
This is why I am looking for a replacement square tube steel Trillium 1300 frame.
