Tilt Trailers and load balance

[ddivinia]

I really like that front deck. There is a trailer manufacturer not far from me. Maybe I take some pics down there and just have them build me exactly what I want.

They rate the load on the hitch

I have been looking at trailers and really like the looks of the Kaufman trailers but also been looking at Econoline Trailers - Viewing 7 Ton Deck Over Multi-Purpose Tilt (16,100# GVWR) Technical Specifications
I also have gotten a quote on Maxey Trailers Mfg... We Can Do It!
which is the best looking set up I have seen so far. I am considering the Maxey with 8k axles and 17.5 wheels but I am pricing out material to build it my self also as I would rather have it set up a little different and the price is a little steep around $10k

The Econoline trailers use a 9.00 x 14.5 tire. I started a thread about it, when I found their site, but didn't get any opinions on the tires.

On the Maxey site I didn't see any 16K or 17k deckover gooseneck gravity tilt, which is what I am looking for.

I have never seen that tire setup.

I have 16"s on most everything.

I might just break down and go to Corey's trailers and buy a new Big Tex. He has great pricing.

Or Oklahoma Trailer Sales.

A buddy has a gooseneck dump with 14.5 tires and they seem to hold up well and are overloaded more than not. His only issue is the debris he picks up at landfill.

Anybody look at the Red Rhino trailers?
