The 2026 Big Tex 14LX-14C2A-BK is a commercial-grade powerhouse built for those who move mountains across the Greater Capital District. Engineered with a massive 14,000 lb GVWR, this 14-foot tandem axle dump trailer is the primary choice for excavation teams in Cobleskill, residential builders in Burnt Hills, and landscape crews in Scotia.

Whether you are hauling heavy aggregate through Schoharie County or transporting a mini-loader to a job site in Rexford, this trailer’s 10-gauge steel floor and walls are built to take a beating. It’s a “do-it-all” workhorse that combines a high-capacity dump bed with a professional equipment hauler, ensuring that contractors from Altamont to Middleburgh can maximize their efficiency and minimize their downtime with a single, reliable piece of equipment.

Axles: Two 7,000# Premium, Cambered Axles featuring Forward Self-Adjusting Electric Brakes.

Hydraulics: Heavy-Duty Scissor Hoist system with Power Up/Gravity Down functionality for superior battery longevity.

Construction: 10-Gauge Smooth Steel floor and 24-inch sides reinforced by a 3″ x 2″ tubing top rail.

Gate System: 3-Way Combo Rear Gate (Spreader, Dump, and Barn Door modes) with integrated 6.5-foot slide-in ramps.

Chassis: 6” x 2” Rectangular Tubing Dump Body Frame with 3” Channel cross-members on 16” centers.

Added Value: Standard crank-style roll tarp, 110V on-board battery charger, and four 1/2″ D-rings inside the bed.

Staff Expert Tip: To prevent “suction” when dumping wet clay or heavy soil, we recommend a quick spray of a non-stick bed liner or agent before loading; this ensures the material slides out smoothly without having to jolt the trailer.

What is the benefit of the “Gravity Down” feature on the hydraulic pump?
This feature uses the weight of the bed to lower it back to the frame rather than drawing power from your battery; this significantly extends your run-time for a full day of high-volume dumping on the job site.

How do the “Forward Self-Adjusting” brakes improve safety?
These brakes eliminate the need for manual star-wheel adjustments by automatically maintaining the proper clearance between the brake shoe and drum, providing consistent, reliable stopping power as you haul heavy loads.

What is the advantage of the Scissor Hoist over a traditional single-ram lift?
A scissor hoist is more stable and less prone to “twisting” the frame when dumping on slightly uneven ground, as it spreads the lifting force across a wider section of the trailer’s undercarriage.
