Your towing rigs and trailers

Thanks man!

I like seeing the crossover members too. It kinda figures if you buy a truck or tractor, you might get the other one in the future so it doesn't surprise me!

Thinking about upgrading my 7000 pound capacity to something 14000 pound or greater. Would love to try gooseneck but that is a huge price jump. Also would love to try the 8000 pound axles, but can't find them anywhere.
Any opinions or advice? Primary use would be hauling water to the house, secondary would by tractor, building materials, quads etc.

Look up Kaufman trailers. They have the best price I could find in a 14k gooseneck and it was around $5k before I added options.

look used. around here there are 20-25 GNs for 2500 (needs work) to 5000 (fairly nice) everyday.

lots of manufacturers have 8K axles. can't remember off hand, but last week i was looking online at trailers and found several 16K trailers with 8K axles. big tex, pj, sure trace, load trail, Appalachian and Kaufman were the manufacturers i looked at.

Here is a pic of my 2013 Kaufman 14K trailer I picked up at a great price. IMG_0889.JPG

Mine has two spares and they put a tool box on it. The paint is not the greatest. But it is paint and not powder coating. I'll probably put some touch up paint on it this summer.

That's a nice trailer. I am jealous. :)

Just picked this up. 6x12 12K

Looked at used but they were beat or more $ than I wanted to pay. On the way back from looking at a used dump I noticed a dealer that had two. So I stopped in and talked. They had a new dump sized right but a bit overkill as I was looking for 10k.

Made an offer and it was accepted! :cool2:
