What is the benefit of a Scissor Lift over a Single Ram hoist?
A scissor lift hoist provides much better lateral stability. This means when you are dumping a heavy load of dirt or debris, the lift mechanism helps prevent the trailer box from wobbling or twisting, which is crucial for safety and longevity when working on the soft or sloped terrain common in Upstate New York.
How do the 3-way combo gates work on the Big Tex 14LX?
The combo gate allows you to choose how you dump. You can open them as “Barn Doors” for large debris, use the “Spreader Gate” setting to lay out gravel evenly while driving, or use it as a traditional “Tailgate” for loading equipment like skid steers using the included ramps.
Is the Big Tex 14LX capable of hauling a skid steer?
Absolutely. With its 7,000 lb axles, 10-gauge steel floor, and standard 6-foot heavy-duty slide-in ramps, the 14LX is specifically designed to be a dual-purpose trailer that can haul medium-sized equipment to the job site and then haul away the debris.
