Picked it up on Friday in Indiana. Still deciding what to do about racks, cabinets, striping, and stuff. The two doors on the side are fuel doors so you can fill mowers without unloading the entire trailer. The trailer is a Royal Crown, 8.5'x28' with the HD ramp door, chrome package, LED lighting package, extended tongue, 8 D-rings, and HD axles. Let me know what you think!

my 2500hd springs have gotten worn out in 1 season of hauling a sixteen foot with 2 mowers on it. i cant amagine what thats going to do to your truck. But nice trailer. it looks like it needs more axles. What # axels are those 3500 or more?

Nice trailer. Look into the "e-track" line. I used it in mine and love it. You see it used in the big rig trailers on the walls. You can get hor. and vert. for either walls or floors. I have some of both in mine along with ratchet straps with the e-track end. No more having to move the machine a little more so the strap reaches the tie down point. I bolted my floor track to the floor with bolts that go through the 3/4" ply and mount underneath with nuts and lock washers. I will try and post some pics here in the near future. Congrats.

Yea e track is really nice. I only have it on the front of of my enclosed on the floor but will be adding alot more here shortly. Its so easy to use and installation is very simple.

Man that is BIG. do you do a lot of large area mowing? I am sure you can put 4 Z mowers in there no problem. We can fit 3 in our 24 ft. v nose with and still have room left. I would paint the floor before you use it. Good Luck

The trailer has two 5200lb. axles, and I was thinkin about doing the e-tracks inside. I bought this trailer from Becker Trailers in Wisconsin. Bill was great to deal with, the website is www.beckertrailers.com I think I can fit 5 mowers inside if I get creative but time will tell. Thanks for all the compliments guys!

That's not right at all. Make sure you load your trailer right. You probably have too much tongue weight. Also, check your hitch height. Somewhere between 17-19" to the top of the ball. Go 20-21" to put more weight on the trailer but not too much rake to where you have uneven load on your axles.



I wish we could have those doors on the side of the trailer here in NY. You'd get a ticket if you tried to fill your machines on the trailer here. Gas stations are pretty strict about not doing that since it's against the law.

Just what I was looking for. What do trailer's like that run in Indiana? Ive looked as far south as Georgia and the prices I found were 4600.00 for a 20ft V nose with 5200lb axles and a few extras.

Wow. Thats gonna be a big Billboard! You might as well buy a plotter and cut your own grafics. The money you save on just your trailer will pay for plotter!

this guy told me two mowers and a kubota on a three axel gooseneck was to much for a "gasser" bullsxxx. if your not hard on **** and take off slow and stop slow you can do alot. it will be a nice trailer for you i am sure and gas or deisel i am sure you cant make it work. why do some of you have to always tell ppl what there doing. you dont see the biggest guys bothering they have wisdom and helpful tips not trash

Thanks for all the compliments! I love this trailer. I wanted something big enough to haul every imaginable thing a lawn crew could need and look good doing it. We will still use a 18' open trailer for the smaller residential route but this trailer will be sharp looking when we get it done. We will have to use my 2500HD gasser for now, but im thinking of selling it and putting my '05 Duramax into the fleet and buying myself a Dodge Cummins Mega Cab. So anyone interested in the 6.0, let me know. It might be up for sale soon, even though I dont want to get rid of it. I love that truck, it's in awesome shape..:cry:Oh well. Keep the comments coming!:usflag:

That trailer could hold four snowmobiles perfectly...Oh right, its for lawnmowers. Sorry, I am a sledhead. Good luck with it. I am glad I do not have to pull it in the tight area I work.

You will love the 28ft enclosed. The sad part is you get one and think you will never run out of room. Trust me we will always find a way to need more. I can get my 28ft trailer around everywhere around here. I don't know why everyone acts like its a big deal.

03-03-2009, 05:52 PM
Agree I pull my 40ft goosneck anywhere and everywhere, not sure why you think it won't "fit". Called this dealer and priced a new enclosed from him, looks like a pretty good trailer and he has them priced right I think

It barely even drops my duramax. Maybe a inch..?? I dont think it will be bad at all. My dump trailer drops the trucks alot more than this trailer does.
