Best Trailers for Transporting Tractors
The best trailers for transporting compact tractors are typically 16-18 foot trailers with adequate weight capacity.
A 16+2 beavertail trailer is considered an ideal size for compact tractors with rear implements.
This length provides enough space for the tractor and additional implements while maintaining maneuverability.
Key features to look for in a trailer for compact tractors include:
- Weight capacity: A trailer with dual 3500-pound axles (7000-pound total capacity) is suitable for most compact tractors.
- Deck length: A 16-18 foot deck allows for proper positioning of the tractor and implements.
- Trailer type: Lowboy and Removable Gooseneck (RGN) trailers are excellent options for transporting tractors.
- Ramps: Foldup dropleg ramps that can't be stolen are recommended.
- Axles and wheels: Look for trailers with 8-lug axles and 17.5" rims for durability.
When choosing a trailer, consider the following factors:
- Tractor dimensions and weight.
- Additional implements you plan to transport.
- Towing capacity of your vehicle (aim for 5000 pounds or more).
- Ease of loading and unloading.
Remember to properly secure your tractor during transport and ensure your towing vehicle is capable of safely handling the combined weight of the trailer and tractor.
