What I DID NOT KNOW about equipment trailers. Please Watch before buying
What happens here
After painting and curing, the trailers move to the final assembly line. This involves hanging axles, installing wiring and lights, and adding various other components and finishing details. The host and Jacob then showcase a completed LPX model, highlighting its key features: a fully composite rubber floor (no wood, preventing rot and offering a 'forever floor'), a hidden pop-up winch system that maximizes deck space, and heavy-duty Max Ramps. These ramps are one-hand operable and can be pinned in an upright position for hauling oversized loads that extend over the back. The trailer is also equipped with 7,000 lb Dexter torsion disc brake axles, offering a smoother ride, fewer wear points, and superior stopping power compared to traditional spring suspensions or electric drum brakes.
Goal: Understand the final assembly process and identify innovative features of the LPX trailer model.
