Finding the right trailer - Help!

Hey guys,

I've been browsing for trailers trying to find the best thing to fit my needs and I'm kinda coming up empty handed. I'd like a trailer long enough to tow two RZR's length wise of the trailer, yet wide enough to have the option to pull the RZR's on sideways. The reasoning behind this is because I'd like to be able to potentially pull 3 RZR's, and if there is room for it an ATV as well.

What are you guys using, and having success with?

This all has to be done with a half ton as well :)

900 wow. lucky duck.

I'm 2250 lbs or so. Steel w/ really thick steel fenders, boxes and daily straps.

only 3500 lb axles but both brakes work. if the trailer starts to sway for whatever reason I pulse the controller and it straightens out. Also slows the tow vehicle a little. Or alot if i hit the brakes hard.

I think you found your trailer...
That's a good size and low(er) weight to boot.

I've got a 7x16' landscape trailer that I use.
I've also got a 6x24' equipment trailer that I use.
The 6' is just wide enough to get one on sideways.

I pull the 7x16 with a Volvo XC90.
It's slow but it works just fine.
The 6x24 I use with the F350s.
They don't have a problem pulling anything.

You won't have a problem pulling a 20' open steel deck trailer and 3 rzr's with a half ton truck. Probably be around 6,000 lbs. loaded. Sure, you will know it is back there, but any modern half ton will not have a problem with that. You could use a 8.5x20 trailer and put them on sideways, should be able to pick one for less than $2,500. get brakes on both axles and use a good controller (Prodigy).

I guess it might depend on the 1/2 ton. I pull a 24' +2' Vnose with Two RZRs in the trailer plus its got a kitchen,bath and camping gear. The trailer alone weighs 3800-4k. I'm sure loaded I'm around 7k. My Tundra has NP pulling it. I would think a 20'x8.5 open trailer with three RZRs wouldn't be bad at all. Probably around 5k

I would say check out maxey trailers. Not sure if they sale them in your area or not. At the time I had them build mine they only made a short version. I think every since I ordeed mine they now make it as a model you can order. I can tell you I have had no issues with it at all. Great trailer!

Mine is 20 feet long becasue I am hauling 3 full size rzr and one youth on it. The only item I sent the trailer back for was for them to weld in square tube between the fram and the axle as for the tires were to close to the finder for me......they did it and did not charge me a dime.

Trailer weighs in at just over 2000lbs

Love it, this is exactly what I was hoping to see! What do you tow it with and how does it handle?
