What is the benefit of a cleated beaver tail?
A beaver tail is an angled slope at the back of the trailer that works with the ramps to reduce the incline. The “cleats” are raised steel bars that act like teeth, providing essential grip so your machine doesn’t slip while loading in the rain or snow.

How do I know if I need a 14k GVWR trailer?
If you are hauling a modern skid steer or a mini-excavator with attachments, a 14,000 lb rating is usually required. This provides roughly 11,000 lbs of actual payload capacity, ensuring you aren’t overloading the axles or tires on your way to the job.

Why does Sure-Trac use C-channel instead of tube steel for the frame?
C-channel is an “open” frame design, which is highly preferred in New York. It prevents road salt and moisture from getting trapped inside the metal where it can cause hidden rust, and it allows for easier inspection of the wiring and brake lines.
