Has anyone dealt with Litle League Equipment from Manitoba? Good? Bad?

I purchased a scraper from them this past spring....very good people to deal with.

I bought a tanker from them years ago. They were very good to deal with then.

We bought a step deck sight unseen from them a couple years ago they were honest and good to deal with. The trailer was exactually what they said it was old and rusty. You just have to be careful with the safteys as they get some things through in Manitoba that won't here. We had to spend another $1000 or so to get it to pass sask safety(mostly tires). They arranged trucking and only took a deposit on MC before we received the trailer then we sent them a check. I would deal with them again.

Well their own safties don't pass a proper Manitoba saftey, a friend bought a step deck from them last year and had to completely re do all the brakes before it would pass a proper MB saftey, just bought some tankers from them with that in mind that they will at least work for a year and then we know will have to have some stuff done..... Otherwise generally nice folks..

the safety thing is my biggest concern, being in sask. will have to been done right away

With the brakes. drums, and tires being the biggest safety items, they all have to be measured. Ask for a copy of the safety, as it will list brake pad thickness, drum thickness, and tire tread depth. If there are any sask safety concerns (as in if the numbers are different in when u safety in sask), a call to DOT in manitoba will help u fix these concerns.

If you get the Manitoba safety done there should not be too much that would need to be fixed to get the Sask one done. What kind of trailer are you looking at any way?

good guys to deal with but like above posters have mentioned their safeties are pretty... relaxed. Alot of their stuff is rusted really bad and came right out of ontario, but the good part is they usually dont try to hide it. It is what it is. Kinda like buying from a ritchie sale. It all depends what your budget is and how particular you are with the kind of machinery you buy.
