So I saw the “ mystery “ 8x16 deck over gooseneck dump with 10k duals again today.
It is a Belmont.
They are built just 30 miles from me.
I called them to see if they are still building this type of trailer. Hope to hear back tomorrow

Thats what the ad description says
$1500 less than a same size Sure Trac near me and the Sure Trac rated at 16,000, not 18,000.

I think the curved up stabilizer pads on the jacks face the wrong way, but yeah, not a big deal. Looks like its been used a few times.
Manufactured in 3/19, so its an older left over.
Wonder if PJ any better than Sure Trac.
Main thing I like about this trailer is they allow and extra 2000lb tongue weight (18k instead of 16k) which could be a lifesaver on those heavily loaded trips and a DOT stop.
