Can you get a shot of the inside of the body maybe with the clam shell open? It looks great.

Re: My new trailer
 

I will get one this weekend.:p:p:D

Re: My new trailer
 

yea we need a video Travis but my question is if you haul dirt in it make wouldn't you want a slide in blade that goes in in front of the tandems to grade it out as you go lol i really thought most bottom dumps were for grain .......just what lil i knew:)

Re: My new trailer
 

Sharp looking trailer!!

Re: My new trailer
 

Travis any chance you have a video?

Re: My new trailer
 

No it was to wet to play in the dirt if the rain holds off for a couple days I will try to get one this week. If It rains I will bring a bag of dads mulch in the garage and do a video with that.

Travis, that is really nice cant wait to see it under the conveyor belt at the next show.

Re: My new trailer
 

Thanks BullDog but I don't think the trailer will make it to Jersey. I hope to have the Freightliner dump done for the show.

Here is a video of the trailer, now it is not the best video I have a hard time running two radios and a camera but here you go. The doors open evenly when there is a load in it but empty it will open the one with the least resistance first but I am very happy with how it works especially considering how wet the dirt was.

Re: My new trailer
 

Thanks Alfy, Izzy really nailed this trailer. I can't wait for Indy to give it a good work out.:D

Travis

Re: My new trailer
 

Uh, yeah.... that's just very cool. Nice work Chris...I mean REALLY well done!

And hey nice job not running your rig off the cliff Travis. :p;):D

Re: My new trailer
 

Ya I really need a bigger place to run the equipment. I may start using the loader and dumps to help dad spread mulch in the train garden. We can load the train as well and he can use his dump car to get to the areas a truck won't go.

Re: My new trailer
 

That is a good dump pattern laid down. Where is the grader to smooth things out??

Nice work on the trailer.
