    Bolster axles might be a solution. Might have to run a triple axle setup...to meet your needs though.

    Maybe he has a CDL or depending on state a non commercial class A, works if its registered as an RV. Or perhaps he wants the trailer for a future truck. I know I used a 36' GN on my recovery. GVWR for the trailer was 22500, and I pulled it fine with my F350. I just had to watch the load. I...

    Yup I'm all too familiar with the changes...when they announced the 11' series with the 6.7L the first thing I did was grab the spec sheet for the 450 from a dealer in Missouri that frequents the diesel garage.

    Dexter Axles...love them, won't by a GN without them. I wouldn't skimp on axles...kinda like a motor to a truck. The trailer is nothing without axles... You could probably make M200 axles work.
