LED Flood Light Recommendation for Lighting Ramp at Rear of Trailer

Question

Question:

I have an enclosed trailer that I would like to mount two LED pedestal lights above the rear ramp/door. These would be used to light up the ramp and the area around it. I would like to run these off the same switch that controls the interior dome lights. Do you have any suggestions on wich LED lights would work. I am looking for a light that has a wide light pattern. Thank you

For a pedestal mount LED light that would work great on your trailer to light up the ramp I would recommend the Opti-Brite LED Work Light part # TLL50FB.

I attached an install video for you to check that shows the light being used in a very similar way on a trailer.

Or for a much brighter light with and even wider light pattern the part # XIL-UF32. This will be about twice as bright and will produce a much brighter light pattern.

Answer 1

Yes, you can splice the Low Profile LED Flood Light #3371492135 to your vehicle reverse lights. These only draw 1.5 amps so it wouldn't be an excessive drain on your light circuit.

The Opti-Brite LED Work Light #TLL60FB is a 2-wire light with black being power and white being ground. It will wire in to your trailer's existing wiring. As long as the current lights run on 12, 24, or 36 volt DC this light is compatible.

I was able to find the 126003 hub and was able to determine that it is a 3,500 lb hub/drum with a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern just like the #AKHD-545-35-K that you referenced. This hub will work as a replacement for your Lippert.

Based on my research, the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 8,000-lb E-Z Lube Axles #AKHD-865-8-EZ-K will be a replacement for the 90865 Rockwell hub and drum. Both of these hub and drum assemblies are 12-1/4" diameter, have an 8,000 lb…

If you're only wanting to setup AC service in your enclosed trailer then you could choose pretty much any 30 or 50 amp power inlet you wanted and then just run the appropriate gauge wire between the inlet and your panel. You can definitely…

All of our bumper strips are 96" long and have the holes pre-drilled out at 11" on center, but the nice thing is these can be cut and re-drilled to accommodate your application. You just need to choose which one has the width you're…

I recommend a 5-lug setup. For this you would have to get the tire and the wheel separately. You could go with the Karrier ST225/75R15 Radial Tire #AM10303, it has a weight capacity of 2,830 lbs at 80 psi and a speed rating of 81 mph for your tires.…

The 205/75-R15 tires are only 1" larger in overall diameter when compared to the 205/75-D14 tires you have now so you should not have any issues replacing these with this size. The R stands for radial and the D stands for Bias. The radial ply is…

I definitely understand how safety chain capacities and determining exactly what chain rating you need for your trailer can be a bit confusing. To keep it as simple as possible, safety chain requirements state that the breaking strength of EACH…
