Nope, none on this rig from the factory.

I had a pair of heavy duty swivel dolly wheels on our previous rig and simply didn't need them. Dragging the bum (whether first contact be a skid pad or the fiberglass) is going to have a bad outcome regardless if protecting that fiberglass is your desire or not. Think of the torque applied to the frame if you ground one rear corner. Better to not have that false sense of security and just be extra vigilant about where you take the trailer. Opinion only!
