 Anybody have a dump trailer

I bought a Load Trail gooseneck with 2 7000# axles. Only complaint was the cheapo tires that came on it. One tire threw the tread within 3 months of purchase. I think most manufacturers install the cheapest tires they can find. Regarding the earlier thread regarding a truck type hoist: It is my understanding that you have a greater mechanical advantage with a scissor type hoist over the models that just shove the cylinder ends against the bed. I also talked to a dump trailer owner before I purchased mine. He got rid of his bumper pull and got a gooseneck. A bumper pull will lift the front end of the truck off the ground while dumping under the right conditions! Just my 2cents. Good luck with your purchase....they are labor and time savers!

 Anybody have a dump trailer

Thanks for setting me straight on the scissor type hoist denwood. Sorry, I did mean it would lift the rear end off the ground. I think the best overall advice on dump trailers is to respect the overall load limitations...trailer and truck GVWR. Ever get behind a trailer that looks like it is wanting to peek around each side of the truck thats towing it? Smile Be Safe!
