Trailer GVRW

[hallj86]

Will a 7K GVRW trailer be enough to put my 3515 with FEL and a box blade? The trailer is 20' with ramps.

Thanks

Yes should be fine (brakes on both axles ) ...

I'm guessing that you meant GVWR (gross vehicle weight rating) instead of GVRW, and I would think you'll be within the weight capacity of that trailer. Naturally, there are a number of considerations besides weight when it comes to trailering.

I would do it in a heartbeat based on what you are considering....like a 2:1 margin before you start asking questions about capabilities to do it.

Trailer load capacity is trailer GVWR - trailer weight. A 20' 7k car trailer is around 2300 lbs. That leaves 4700. A 3515 weighs about 3000 lbs. Can't find the loader weight spec but I think it's about 1000 lbs. for my loader, the BL150 might be less. Box blades vary, my 66" BB is 550 lbs.

That puts you near the limit for that trailer.
