Good trailer for a B3030?

[sjm1580]

I would love some input on finding a good trailer (in the northwest if possible - Montana, would be most helpful) for a B3030 with BH with extra space to carry a box blade. Trailer must have a regular hitch.

Thanks for your input....

I purchased a new trailer for my B3030 last summer. I got a 16 ft beaver tail. 7800 lb gvw, electric brakes, slide under ramps, hemlock deck. Built by cross country manufacturing. They market it as a car carrier, perfect for tractors. Legal payload of 6000 lbs.

Id think about ANY "car carrier" trailer would do fine...??

You should be able to find a Big Tex trailer in the northwest. I have a 16' 70CH that handles my B2910 (Older version of B3030) with BH on it with no problems. I can put the BB on front of trailer under FEL bucket or in pickup box.

Big tex makes a great trailer, i had one before i purchased my cross country, it was just to light for the B3030.

Hmm. But you have one of them with a fancy tops on it. It may not be heavy enough if he is using it for a business every day. My trailer is 5 years old with no problems. But I only move tractor ounce a month or so.

I was given the big tex for free from a business associate that im very tight with. He used it for maintenence until he outgrew it. I replaced the tires,deck and lights and ran it for six years. when i sold it last year i was shocked to see the tidle rated the payload for 3000 lbs. I overloaded it week in & week out for six seasons. I guess that would explain the broken springs:

3000 lbs load and you had your B3030 on it? I would be afraid to put my B2910 on it without any attachments. Load is about 5200 lbs on my CH70. Weighed the trailer last fall. It is 1780 lbs not the 1350 on the registration.

I had my 3030 w/ front 15 gallon boom sprayer, rear sitrex pto spreader and 2 lesco hps ride on spreaders on the rear @ 450 lbs each. I think thats the load that killed the rear springs.

Check these out Fox Trailers
Had one built for my L4330, with loader and BH, 10k 22ft tandem axle tilt bed.
And they're in Id., which is pretty local.
