Midi low loaders

[swinny]

Just wondering if anyone has run one of these 12t midi low loaders? 

 

This particular one has a 9t payload. 

 

I wanted something for a 5-8t digger.

 

Only not necessary downfall I've seen is people say 6 stud axle brakes are shite.... I've always done ok but I don't tow massive loads 12t plus etc and my 6 stud trailers have done fine. 

 

One big down side I bet will be re sale value. Not many folk will be after one

If you want to move 5 to 8 ton digger you need a trailer for the job, if you can move timber as well makes it more useful.

You think ok or keep to 8 and 10 stud axles? Bigger brakes and all. 

 

Buggered if you want to shift a 20' container with that trailer above

What about one of those hook loader setups, allows you to mix and match especially if you've got the tractor.

 

Plus a decent sized hook loader skip should take a digger without it being too tall, unlike the usual idiots with a trailer and the digger being like 18ft+ squeezing under bridges.

A lot of six stud farm trailers were poor on braking, commercial brakes have much wider brake shoes & drums than their agricultural equivalent.
