17,000 GVWR Deluxe Gravity Tilt Forklift Trailer - 16 ft.

Kaufman Trailer’s 17,000 GVWR Deluxe Gravity Tilt Forklift Trailer is purpose built for hauling a conventional forklift. The diamond plate floor sits low in the frame. A built-in dovetail and lip around the sides with traction strips make loading your forklift easy and safe. Running gear is two 8,000 lb. 8 lug axles with heavy duty slipper spring suspension and 17.5 in. load range H radial tires. The deluxe package adds a rubrail to the stakepockets, a heavy duty 12,000 lb. drop foot jack, a heavy duty cast iron adjustable coupler upgrade, and a sealed modular wiring harness instead of conventional wiring. Lifetime LED rubber mount lights are also included on this 17000 GVWR Deluxe Gravity Tilt Forklift Trailer. Hauling a conventional forklift requires a purpose built trailer. The rear counter weight and small rear tires place stress added in a small concentrated load area. Because of this concentrated load, most standard trailer designs are not adequate. Our forklift model has 12 in. cross member spacing AND heavy duty reinforcement strips under this area to add extra support the floor. The easy loading angle and ridged traction strips that we add make loading and hauling your forklift easy with this custom Kaufman 17000 GVWR Deluxe Gravity Tilt Forklift Trailer.
Due to its design, this trailer does not pull well when empty. Be advised that slower speeds are necessary when transporting this trailer with no load!
