a World Exclusive "One of a Kind" Trailer

What happens here

The presenter visits the Air-Tow Trailers booth. A representative showcases a unique trailer that functions as both a drop-deck and a dump trailer, the only one in the world capable of both. It can haul 10,000 pounds and dump 8,000 pounds. The representative demonstrates the dump feature and highlights the trailer's A-frame suspension system with Timken bearings, which ensures proper toe and camber and offers a long lifespan for the axle by only allowing slight back-and-forth movement instead of full 360-degree rotation.

Goal: Showcase Air-Tow's dual-function drop-deck and dump trailer and its unique suspension system.

guy grow into a large business okay so he didn't lead with the most interesting fact ever and what is that so at Airtel we do have a trailer it's a drop deck and dump trailer it's the only one in the world that'll do both so it'll haul 10 000 pounds payload and dump eight thousand pounds and it's right here yeah it has a dual acting tailgate yeah I wouldn't lead with that either so do you want me to raise it so you can get the cycles of it yeah yeah yeah yeah let's do it now can you bring her all the way down to the ground right drop her right down so we can see that cheers all the way on the ground and this is done because it has a very unique A-frame suspension system right there that is the axle there is no Central axle that runs through it the bed this is the axle that's amazing here you go so on this A-frame axle um what's so great about this axle is you can get the proper Towing camber on that tire all it takes is shimming behind there and you can get that tire exactly where it needs to be it sits up top here on a timbering rubber suspension so the Timber and block sits there it's Progressive rating the harder you push against it the harder it'll push back um and then you have a spindle that runs through here and inside of there's Timken bearings and it's completely weather sealed and it just pivots back and forth and that's why you're going to get such a long life out of that axle is because usually bearings are used to that full 360 degree rotation this one's just a slight back and forth on those bearings all right and that is standard on airflow yep that is there on all Air tow trailers air tow air toe airtow.com
