    Trailer: dually to heavy singles, on 10k/12k axles...stability etc?

    The old trailer was 102"x25' light weight 12" I-beam frame, 14lbs per foot I think, no sway control. 8k Spring axles. The new trailer is 102"x28' light weight 14", engineered beam, with sway control. 8k Torsion axles.

    Trailer: dually to heavy singles, on 10k/12k axles...stability etc?

    What I found with my narrow trailer, is, with a wide top heavy load, it was a little rocky. With a heavy, narrow, wheeled vehicle it was fine even tho the grader is a lot heavier than the load of hay. My wide frame trailer does have the sway control pipe so that may make a difference, so not...

    Correct, and why I am not interested in their 10-12k singles on the deck overs. I assume they do that so they can be shipped with either style. The FMAX 207-208 have the wide frame. I am not a fan of singles on a 12k axle. The tires are maxed out. 10k axles are fine. Like Hay Dude, I am a fan...

    Wide frame with singles, note, two deck boards, outboard the frame. Narrow frame with duals, 4 deck boards outboard the frame.

    I would not convert to singles on a narrow frame trailer that has dually axles. You will loose axle/tire width. Some small manufactures used the same narrow frame for both singles and dually axles. I assume for ease of the build. I had one (16k) 102"x25' and didn't like it. With a narrow load it...

    Flatproofing loader tires?

    TyrFil™ Flatproofing – Carlisle TyrFil™ Anyone ever use this stuff? How do you replace the tires when it is time? I can see some pro's and con's. My biggest con, is it adds weight. I bought a compact wheel loader and my requirement was 11-11.5k operating weight, to keep it legal when I haul it...
