New Tilt Trailer With Kioti and Kubota on board Pictures

[nc redneck]

I would highly suggest to spend $ 300.00 on upgrade to 15,000 GVWR. Includes better tires, led lights and most important 16 OC cross members. The sealed wire harness is kind of a joke. I do believe you will not be able to find a better trailer for the money. Very impressive operation over 200 employees and they average 15 trailers sold per day all made on site. Every thing from small utility to 18 wheel low boy rigs.

Just got it today from Kaufman 22 foot tilt. I knew it would be close if both tractors would fit. I love it when a plan comes together. For safety police only time I would load both is to mow one property I own 20 miles aweigh. No long tows with both tractors. Lots of room for one and a lot of other stuff though.View attachment 334343View attachment 334344View attachment 334345

NC Thanks for the great pictures. It looks sweet. Three diesels on the trip - Diesel tow truck and two diesel tractors. What is the emblem on the truck door just rear of the Duramax Badge?

With a one ton DRW Diesel Pickup and a 15,000 pound trailer looks like you would be within the safe weight limitations for what is in the pictures.

Enjoy the equipment.

Nice trailer. Do you know what brand of axles they use?

 

[nc redneck]

Spanky I have to say very sharp eyes. Extra emblem is for my Pacbrake exhaust brake. The 01 in picture used to be used only for towing 40 foot 5th wheel Toy Hauler. A few months ago at 50,000 miles it was turned into a work truck, horse hauler. No way my 2013 3500 is getting horse poop on it from horse shows.

They are supposed to be Dexter. But I am not sure no tags visible , I have not looked real hard. Its kinda of like tires you only know what you have after a 70 MPH pull on a 100 degree day for at least 50 miles with full load.
Thanks

From what I saw tires on the 14k and 15k are the same. I was told to get better tires, you have to upgrade to the Firestone for $340 or Uniroyal's for $380. Most complaints I hear about their trailers are about tires, so if your considering one, I say spend the $ for the name brand tires. If only for a better chance at a warranty should one fail. I should have ask how a trailer could be rated 15k with two 7k axles.

The trailers are rated with axles plus tongue weight. So if you have (2) 7000 lbs axles, to get the 15k, you need at least 1k on the tongue.

Now that you have had it a few days, what are your feelings about the tilted deck angle for loading cars?

Kaufman makes tilt deck car trailers.

I would rarely need to haul a car. Primary use for me is moving my tractors. I just wonder if the deck angle is low enough to pull a wide range of cars up without the bumper dragging.
