I have a 2005 2 horse BP Kiefer with an aluminum floor. The weird thing… there is a layer of plywood between the aluminum floor and the rubber mats. I never really thought much of it, but when I recently took my horse trailer for a good look over the trailer place expressed concern about corrosion on the aluminum floor caused by the wet plywood.
Obviously, Because of the concern, I have to have them take the mats and plywood out to have a better look at the floor.
My question is, why is the plywood there? Is there a reason for it? I was thinking maybe heat and vibration? But what If they pull the wood out and put down a double layer of mats? I wasn’t sure, and couldn’t find googling, if this is standard on Kiefer trailers, or if there was some good reason for replacing the plywood.
Thanks!
