I have a 13 foot long Lo Liner with 13 inch wheels on it. Is that correct? Or should they be 14 inch rims? I think the trailer is a 1967 model. I'm hoping Vikx will chime in since he seems to be one of the few posters on here who actually has experience with these. I know photos would be helpful. Guess I'll sit down tonight at home and figure out how to make photobucket work here on the site. Thanks in advance for your input. Bob

This one has 5 on 4.5 inch bolt pattern hubs. The good thing is there lots of clearance from the spring hanger. So maybe someone just swapped down in size from 14's?

Well, it is a couple of years newer... Go with what works. If you have lots of clearance, 14s will be fine. And I FORGOT: Loliners come in different sizes. Some aren't LOW at all. Sorry about that. I'm guessing the 13 feet is body size and the "Loliner" is 15+ feet? So some would have 15" wheels. Here's an original 65 Loliner:

That one is really similar to mine, with the side vents but my marker lights are up top and it has a graphics paint job. Kind of a stylized arrow? I'm sorry but I still haven't had time to figure out pics. Was there a specific model year break when the axles were changed?

As far as I know, the axles weren't changed on the smaller Loliners. The extra lights were added on 68 or newer, unless a PO added them. (hard to do without removing the skins)
I worked on a larger Loliner with a weird E on the stripe end. It is a much larger trailer than the one pictured above. If your trailer is higher than about 7 feet, it may be one of the larger models.
We really need photos to help you.
