Exploring BEHNKE Trailers

these for living okay I found a unicorn uh and it's not Chad Chad how are you I guys this is Chad but when I say I found you wanted the goodl looking guy you should have called me over that's Uncle Jim just kid it's Uncle Jim you guys uh these These are actually the Banky guys and when I say I found a unicorn I've heard a lot about Banky my for years uh and I've never actually seen one in real life Y and what I've heard has been a lot of good things about Banky so I Chad what do you guys do that deserves that reputation I would say it's going to be the quality of the craftsmans ship the materials used the engineering and the design and the heaviness of how the trailer is built you'll see just by looking at an appearance this trailer is overbuilt for the application it's meant to last the test of time so this one's got two 20,000 lb axles on it two 10,000 lb portion axles for a 20,000 rating trailer weighs 5100 lb 5100 lb so you're 149 a payload payload that's insane that's a Class A license it's designed right around your larger tra equipment key part about this is when you get to the larger axles it's really hard to maintain the width between the fenders of the Tilt deck cuz if you look the drums and hubs on these axles are massive just to support that stopping power needed 10,000 lb axle but the key is we're still maintaining an 83 in width between the fender Wells here so all your wide track equipment mini excavators track skid loaders they're going to be fitting through here and makes it easy to load you can avoid using a deck over trailer use a low Pro trailer have the easier loading for your crew I'm looking at the wood on the deck uh that's not 2x4 you went down and bought it the big box or this this looks like it's 2x8 rough saw Oak yep that's what I always covered all my All Uniform thickness which is very difficult to find when you're talking Oak a lot of times you find odd planks variance in the thickness of it so everything's uniform 2x8 it's an option on the trailer Pine of standard but it's a relatively cheap option retail on a trailer like this you're probably looking at $300 $350 to add that white o and you've got the the fork Stakes built right in y those are standard they're built right into the frame so it's a tube style frame which helps maintain some of the lightweight features of it it's a rectangular 8x2 tubing quarter wall thickness on it and then those Fork pockets are laser cut into that frame what it's doing it's adding strength…
