Here is mine going to the SPAAMFAA Convention in Syracuse NY last week. I'm Haulinig my 37 Seagrave Pumper and a 1899 Wirt Knox Hose reel. It's all sitting on my new :hurray: 34 foot PJ Trailer with the hyd beaver tail, elec over hyd disk brakes and a 9000 lb remote controlled winch. Boy has this made my life easier. I grossed out at 30440 and got about 9 mpg.
I love my DMAX

Sweet trailer, been looking at one myself, how is the construction? Getting tired of the dang ramps, plus the thought of 12k elec/hyd brakes vs drum electric, well ):h

The Construction is good. I do think they could put some grommets in where the electric lines run into the front tool box to the winch battery to keep the rain water out. So I guess I'll do that my self.
Like you I got tired of the ramps and the hyd beavertail has made my life so much easier:hurray: I just love the Elec over Hyd disk brakes they do the Job. Now all I got to do is sell my PJ 23 +5 tri axel gooseneck.

How is the trailer holding up? any Issues?

The Trailer is doing well. Thanks for asking. It is parked now. The last time I used it was to move 3 fire trucks in a day for friends. A very long day.
I still need to get to doing the things I wrote about in the previous post.

I keep reading that the electric over hydraulic disc brakes is the only way to go on a trailer!

Nice looking rig(s)! :thumbsup:

This is the first I have herd of a hydraulic beaver tail thing. I guess back to more reading, Thanks.
