Dealer in lex ky has 2, i went to look at it. I think it’s a nice upgrade over the 040-4 i had a few years ago. I thought the cab would be identinticle to my u48-5 but it’s a little smaller/different. These have the 6 way blade so thats nice.

Yes i put oats in. This is crappy clay soil so it doesn't wash off like good soil. I dont do good with fall planting of alfalfa because of heaving. Spits them out. I’m fully prepared to redo it but will wait to see what kind of coverage i get.

I’m sure some stuck around. We’ll see this week. But definitely a broken field. It was plowed and disced, cultipacked, drilled(conventional) and cultipacked again. If it was no tilled then it would probably be better off but all my fields need turned over. Slowly renovating in 5 acre plots.

Then we got 7.79” of rain the last 4 days. That’s a smack down from Mother Nature.

They have 17.5’s that bolt to the 7k hubs?

The max ramps do cause the tail to be a little lower, i had that issue. But these ramps are double hinged, they will allow for a little adjustment for height, not much but a few inches it seems.

Well, understanding people are full of BS is a good tool. As far as companies being bought up and turning to crap, i agree. So far i am happy with this PJ. The more i use it the more i like it. I welded on 4 more d rings where i wanted them. The ramps are great, and I’m not sure who started the...

Might want to research or something but diamond C is independent and never been bought. That same family owns it and the 2 brothers run it now.

Yea full fuel, i doubt the 14’s are 200lb more, 40-50, sure. I have a 600lb gravel bucket i may start back taking. Plenty of room.

I got situated, welded on some d rings in spots I needed, set my tongue weight and scaled. It’s nice having a steel trailer again, especially with an 8” tongue and frame. Going to put 14 ply on.

Eby makes a great aluminum equipment trailer and deck over. Close to $20k. All critical parts are riveted. Incidentally the new suretrac model of mine is now riveted.

Pj and big Tex are under atw, diamond c is still owned by the original family. And they are leading the industry in innovation imo and other manufacturers are following like pj.

I fixed my aluminum trailer issue. I got a pj evolution. I know pj has some online hate, and probably justified. They got bought by big Tex parent company. My choices for for my payload capacity needs was between this and diamond c’s new line, baseline. It’s a 16k with a weight of 3100. This pj...

I started a warranty claim with the dealer i bought it from, very receptive and professional but 2 hours away..midway trailer in Dayton but recently changed their name. I will need a this trailer sooner than later. Sucks. But as far as an aluminum trailer issue, this is the bolt on steel axle...

Well I’ll update this. Tonight on the way home with the aluminum 14k wile pulling my mini x that weighs 11500 the axle spring hanger broke. I thought i blew a tire but it was the tire against trailer frame that was smoking. Man, it could have been a lot worse. I pull this about a 160 mile round...
