Why you hating on me Matt?

No hate, just no need to have such a nice looking truck squatting

LOL you know you want to take the scrap money and do the R4 system. I do like my firestone bags and little compressor for them though since its simple.

Here you go. 420 cinder blocks with a lot of hitch weight

80psi in the bags

Like I said this is loaded wrong with a ton of pin weight. I may move the pallets around before I leave.

It's a trailer man brand trailer. It's very nice. It has the low deck oil bath axels etc etc. I would put it right next to any other brand any day. I am very happy with it.

How would you compare the weight of it? In my experience they are on the heavy side. I do agree that they are very well built just heavy.

My trailer is a trailerman 27'+5' low pro 20K lb with 3 ramps. Its on the heavy side, but it pulls like a damn dream. It doesn't jar you around or have a constant bounce like some do. I'm very impressed with it, in a overall nice piece. The only thing I would replace it with would be a gatormade 40' 24K lb.

It's not light at all. Trailer is 7500lbs empty, part of that is the hydraulic dove though. The trailer does pull well though. Sometimes it does get some bounce to it because the weight of it is pretty centered on the trailer axels (a little bit of weight on the front of it fixes the problem right away), that and the CC/LB truck bounces on some roads by its self so that doesn't help any.

I have pulled there tag trailers and they also seem to be on the heavy side but they also pull really well
