It has a 7-pin light connection but no brake controller inside). I read on line that electric brakes aren't needed till the trailor's GVWR reaches 3,000 lbs. But my articulated trailor backing skills are nill to none. 😁 ......I know.....learn. But l'd rsther learn on a level surface first. Gotcha, I was envisioning new and could not figure out how they could possibly just slow down and push it out as they drove by Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chances are (cause I wear a silly grin) it'll about 73-inches long, botton unit only and weigh between 600 and 900 lbs. I also plan on buying a riding lawn mower. 42-46" with a 20hp motor. The driveway is about 120 ft. long at a 14-degree grade. With the gear ratio unknown, with said lawn mower/tracker be able to pull this beast of a tool box up this hill to the garage?? I also plan on getting some sort of 4WD vehicle for the winters to get up this Olympic sized ski jump of a drive way.... https://www.dtvmotorcorp.com/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIltuVkqOg3QIV1WoBCh3cggHHEAEYASAAEgLXRfD_BwE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Travis In Austin Posted September 6, 2018 Moderators Share Posted September 6, 2018 As suggested before, this is all you will need. 2000 lb towing, 1500 rear payload, you would need longer bed for the tool box, but the trailer attachments. We use these at the hanger to move airplanes, at the ranch to finish mow, spread feed, spray. It will handle a wide variety of jobs going up and down that driveway.
