Hey, good to hear from you. The empty weight on this trailer is 9,400 lbs. For more info on this trailer check it out here! buckeyetrailers.com/ultra-max-sd-53/
Sucks when you have a 3500 lb axle but the trailer itself is is 2/3 that so you are left with maybe 1400 lbs. My old kit trailer has a 2000lb axle now and added a 550 steel for the tongue vice the old u shaped C channel. Added weight but used lighter side walls so can handle 1200. Look over at the pipe top 6x12 SMH. Will say steel pipe top is more robust and and can handle just under a ton easily. Texas Bragg trailer said there is fluff included with the axle ration for safety purposes so 3500 axle can do more but for safety...
can i use a 3500 dully truck for this trailer? i have removed the bed, and added a 5th wheel hitch which can pull 34k( the fifth wheel hitch). the pulling power shuld be no issue 2023 3500 dully can pull up to 38k lbs.
