bubbacuse77,

I have a PJ tilt that is an older model, doesn't have the hydraulic cylinder in front. It's about 8 years old or so. It's 83 X 12' single axle, not a model they make anymore. It's been a good trailer, though it doesn't get used much. About 6 years ago, when we were moving, I hauled my zero turn on it on a few 700 mile round trips. I bought it new, with new tires. I don't have any pictures of it, but doubt they would be of much use since they don't make that model now anyway.

It's well built and tracks well on the road.

Good luck!

I don't own one but I've been looking at some tilt type trailers. Is this what you are looking at?

I talked to an H & H dealer today, he steered me toward a "Quality Trailer" He told me the H & H tilt trailer was $3700.00...

I bought my Sure-Trac a couple of year ago and it has served me well. They make a good trailer and will make just about anything you want.

Wolf, what holds the forks in? Are the fork pockets on both sides? Sorry to hijack.

Do you use yours in the snow and if you do how is it to load a tractor on a tilt bed?

The trailer is a 14K GVWR. It's 18.5' tilt + 4' fixed. I spec'd Dexter easy-lube axles and added the spare tire, 10K drop leg jack, LED lights, 16 5K D-Rings, and the fork pockets.

Cost = $7K

I chain the forks to D-Rings or Stake Pockets. You can see it in looped through the forks in the attached pictures in the original thread.

I plan to keep this trailer until I no longer am able or need to use it, so I avoid towing it in the winter. The amount of salt they use here in metro Detroit tends to eat anything metal.

The trailer is a wood deck and I have loaded in heavy rain without any issue. I typically have the tractor in 4WD when I am loading to prevent any surprises which I am sure helps. The rear 2 ft is diamond plate which is slick as ice when it is wet.
