2021 Big Tex 6.5ft x 16ft Utility Trailer – 2.7t with Ramp Gate & Spare Tyre

This is the plain, useful shape of trailer that does most of the work in any yard: a 6.5 ft x 16 ft open deck with a fold-up rear ramp gate, an angle-iron frame and a treated pine floor. Big enough for a ride-on, a bobcat attachment set, a load of green waste or a small excavator; small enough to reverse into a suburban driveway.

Both axles are braked – a detail worth noticing, because plenty of trailers this size run brakes on one axle only, and a fully braked pair changes how it behaves loaded on a descent.

Running gear

• 2 x 3,500 lb cambered axles with quick-lubricating hubs, electric brakes
• Multi-leaf spring suspension with equaliser
• ST205/75 R15 load range C tyres, 5-stud pattern, plus a spare on a mount
• 2 in A-frame coupler, 2,000 lb top-wind set-back jack with removable sand foot
• Grommet-mounted LED stop, tail, turn and clearance lights

Australian road use

Those ratings come from the US manufacturer and are converted here for comparison only. They are not ADR ratings, not an ATM plate and not a roadworthiness statement. Registration of an imported trailer runs through your state or territory road authority, and that is the conversation to have before you buy rather than after. See the full range under container chassis and trailers, or enclosed trailers if you need the load out of the weather.
