This sounds cheap to me for some reason. The ones I have been looking at are closer to $9,500 (+) for that size.

Just wondering, do you have:

Drop down sides
Barn style back doors
8 ga. floor (if not, what)
Was that a GN you are talking about or bumper pull?

Thanks,

Phil

 

Here is something similar to what I have been looking at (I would rather not have the tall sides). I want 2' drop downs with stake pockets so I can run with 2' wood sides (making it 4')

Make sure you have the brakes to stop it. You definately have the correct engine to pull it.

 

I would stay away from those cheap texas pride. We ran dumps after katrina along with a ton of other guys and all kinds of equipment overloaded 75% of the time. Guys had problems with one ram working better than the other and I can't imagine they put a good door system on those cheap trailers. Look at texas bragg or big tex for design and buy one like those. We were droping huge logs in the taxas bragg and the floor held up great but I don't know the thickness. Valv was talking about the axles bending thats becasue he was overloaded. You can overload dually axles but not singles. I saw six single axles blown out in new orleans and no dually axles busted. A trickle charger mounted to the frame then plugged in when at home or on site is a good solution for the battery but I would run two marine deep cycle. The trickle works great for my wake boat. Brakes on both axles are always nice.
