- Truck and Trailer Tuesday!
Our newest dream trailer was purchased to haul two of our pieces of equipment at the same time; therefore, we needed a wider and longer trailer. We choose the BWise 28' power dovetail trailer with hydraulic jack (the Hyjacker). Tractor Time with Tim reveals why he ordered this trailer and how it fits the needs of our business.

Tim, Congrats on the new trailer. I have a landscape company and haul heavy equipment daily. I would honestly contact the DOT officer again and get some clarification. I have been to many checkpoints and watched them give large fines for what you are talking about. You are correct that you need to stay under the 26,001LB weight to stay away from CDL and DOT numbers. However, you are over loading the trailer if you load how you plan too. You need to stay within the weight limits of the trailer. If the trailer has a GVWR of 14,500 and weights 5,360lbs you only have 9,140 lbs of payload weight you an put on that trailer. Just because you can "shift" some of the weight to the truck does NOT count. You will be under CDL and DOT weights, but you WILL get a ticket for an over loaded trailer. They will look at the GVWR on the trailer and then how much each item weighs on the trailer. Just a friendly heads up that there might have been some miscommunication with the DOT officer. We haul and drive this equipment daily. Good Luck!!
Nope. They weigh the tandem axles of the trailer, and they weigh the truck axles separately.
These BWise trailers are awesome. I have a BriMar dump trailer that I purchased in 2003 because I was seeing that if I was going to continue heating my house with wood I needed to get some hydraulics involved as my son was going to be off to college in a few years besides the fact that unloading wood from a non dumping trailer is as much work as loading. I have been using a carryall 3pt attachment on my Kubota BX2200 to load logs into my trailer (unfortunately at the time I purchased my tractor I didn't get a bucket mainly due to having nowhere to store it when not being used). But as I'm getting order I think I'm going to need some hydraulics for both the front jack & tail gate. Thanks for showing these products. The guidance for tie downs has been valuable.
Hey Tim nice trailer, it's been a while since we've made it down from the Cay. We just picked up a similar trailer with a manual dove. I'm thinking my brother in law needs to watch this video to make the upgrade to hydraulic for our new trailer. Stay well! Mark from the Cay.🌴👍🚜🇺🇸🇨🇦
Add a winch! That would make that nice trailer even more versatile! You never know when you need to haul a broke down (knock on wood) piece of equipment.
Hi Tim
I purchased 4 stake bed inserts for My trailer from a local trailer/trailer supply company called Champion Trailers on Adamo dr in Tampa Florida.
They were about $30 each, and they can be moved to any trailer pocket and have a really heavy duty large ring.

Having hydro or electric jacks are so awesome
What u gotta remember is that these guys look at every notification they get and respond to every comment and like every comment, on new and even year old videos, and with how many people are subscribed it must be a hard job, thanks ttwt
Thanks for the kind words!
Lots of luck guys! Looks awesome! Why wouldn’t you need another trailer ??? That’s the question.
Nice trailer. Love the channel. I just purchased a 25' goose trailer. 20' deck, 5' dovetail with flip over monster ramps. I loaded by 4052r with an MX6 mower and it takes the entire trailer.
Glad to get a trailer like this! Love your family's good humor and your honoring God! Thanks for super-fun videos.
Thanks for the encouragement, Allen!
Congratulations on the new trailer, It looks like a fine piece of equipment. It's nice to see all your hard work is allowing you to expand your equipment which will in turn give you the ability to do more projects for folks which will result in more videos, more views, and more growth for the channel which of course will allow for more equipment to be added which will enable more projects... Its a wonderful vicious cycle.
Perfect! I'm ordering mine soon. Have you had it long enough to realize anything you would have configured differently? Did you pick this one up in PA or at a closer dealer?
I picked it up at Chambersburg PA.
Haven’t really found anything missing.
They offer power rear ramps...so that you don’t have to fold them by hand...but they don’t sell many of them. We opted out due to weight.
@@TractorTimewithTim Nice. I think I'd pass on that too.
Now that is one nice looking trailer. I agree that you need to stay under 26 000 lbs. Having to have a D.O.T. number is a real pain in the butt. I had one and I would get bills from states that I never traveled to. Annual fees. Ya right more like "Hey where is our cut of your action" fee. Good luck with the trailer guys. It will make life so much easier loading and unloading equipment.
Farm tag it. No DOT required in Texas if you do that. Other states should be similar.
Seeing the way you two love each other is a great early birthday present from y'all to me
Wow. Happy Birthday, John!
Thank y'all for taking the time to make great videos and sharing your experience with us
something for you to look into. Does B-Wise have a rating for their stake pockets> you also need to take that into the factor when securing to them. I know Utility, Mac, Retenar and Transcraft state that stake pockets are not to be used for securment, instead they have spools in their rub rail for securment.
Tim my 32 foot (in total length) trailer with a five foot beaver tail has round rods to wrap chains around in between every stake pocket, those rods are welded to the rub rail and the trailer at either end
Hey thanks for the breakdown on the truck and trailer weights (best on youtube)! I had to go back and watch your series with trooper hoover to confirm a few things as I'm planning to buy some new equipment soon. Thank you for all the quality content ! Strong work!
Fantastic presentation of a great product. I didn't really know what I was looking for when I bought my car hauler. It suits me pretty well, but I have found a few shortcomings. Your new deck-over checks ALL the boxes. Looks like a purchase you will not regret. Like they say, buy once, cry once...
I love my 36' diamond c 12 ton with hyd dovetail and Jack's along with wireless remote. Best money I've spent
Hope you have CDL and your truck is USDOT registered.
@@TractorTimewithTim farm tags. Makes me exempt here in nc. I've crossed scales weighing up to 47500 with no issues
Tim, have you consider dropping the chain hook through the stake pocket, then attaching the hook to the top of the stake pocket? I find the hook is less likely to bounce loose rather than when the hook is attached to the chain. Gravity helps hold the chain hook in place. Nice looking trailer. I'm envious!
I have seen stake Pockets Bend or get the weld ripped from them when using only one side of the pocket as an anchor plus that puts a lot of strain on the link of chain that is right on the bottom wrapping around so what I do is go down the outside of the stake pocket underneath and up the other side of the stake pocket all on the outside that provides strength by utilizing both sides of the pocket and the welds and reduces the stress on the chain by not having such a tight corner to make.
It’s always a very pleasant and relaxing experience watching your videos
What you should look into is wiring the aux power into the trl battery so you get a little bit of juice while driving to the sights you working at
The aux power isn’t working on our F350. Not sure if it is a fuse or something else. Haven’t investigated!
@@TractorTimewithTim did you check it with key on or off. I think new vechicles have them set up for key on so you cant drain battery otherwise its a fuse under the hood since the trk is new
Your business sure has come a long way since I first subscribed.
Yes. It has. Thanks for sticking with us!
Yeah, at first I thought it was a Hobby thing, but now this is great!!! Can’t wait for the future
I was thinking the same thing. I can't remember how long I've been here, but there was only Johnny at that point. It's been fun to watch the journey.
Yeah, if my memory is correct I came along around the 15k mark.
i said to them they was Hollywood bound from the very first video, they are getting closer. lol. great trailer and video. thanks-TTWT
Really nice trailer. I love that beaver tail. I get tired of flipping my heavy ramps over. Those twin hydraulic jacks are nice too!
I have the same problem with trailers loading and logistics . And have to turn down jobs that require hauling off debris . Getting a dump trailer seems like the way to go the majority of my jobs are one day . If I load up the trailer with debris how do I get my tractor home ? I really don’t wanna go to the dump and then go back for my tractor especially if the job is far from it . I’m seriously contemplating either buying landscape size dump truck or turning my Ram 3500 into one it’s about the same cost to build one than buy a dump trailer ,also I could use it to bring extra attachments instead of a bigger trailer . What ya guys think ? I’m trying to decide . I have a tractor business very similar to TTWT I have a JD 3320. Tim ya should be using chain to tie down that heavy equipment reason why is that after awhile straps can rub on your attachments and fray as ya know sometimes ya can’t help it . I use both straps and use chain to tie down extra attachments . Do you wish you bought a 1 ton truck with duals? Your equipment keeps getting bigger and it would be much better hauling and stopping it all . A lot of guys upgrade the truck brakes also . I’m trying to figure out mine too it’s a lot to figure out and consider . Love the channel
I am glad my truck is not larger. If it were,’I would be forced into USDOT and CDL.
In the past couple weeks, the PA State Police DOT cop has had dually pickups pulled over that were carrying custom food trailers over for inspection. The trailers are enclosed and with a stainless steel ventilator on top, so I assume they are food prep trailers that might go around to local fairs and what not. They are really cracking down on commercial trucking here in PA. So, many wrecks on the Interstate recently. Be safe out there on the highway. BTW, your trailer ramp reminds me of the USAF C-5 Galaxy cargo plane that I road in while in the Air Force. It looks very well engineered.
A powered dovetail is so nice! It will save your health in the long run. I wore my back out manhandling those heavy ramps for years. Now I’m bolted together with titanium rods and screws. Your back salutes you sir!
Those BWise trailers are very appealing. They look great and seem to have all the best features.
TimRun your chain through the stack pocket and back to the top of the stack pocket. It will not come loose if you hit bumps or load shifting. I've been pulling equipment for years and this little detail will save you in the long run. Also make sure you grease the pivot pins in your dovetail, also make sure your electrical wiring stays protected as your trailer gets some miles on it.
The finish on the new trailer is extremely nice! Great looking unit👍
Forgot to mention the paint. It is called ‘Hammertone Gray’. That provides the nice textured finish
It’s a great looking finish. Is it paint or powder coat?
Nice trailer! The power dovetail is a great feature! The cargo buckles are handy!
I love how your able to stay right under cdl . Our equipment is just over the threshold and it's a pain .
I dont have to worry for my rig as im solely private. But im over as how tim says since my trk is 11k gvwr and trl is 18k gvwr but i only wiegh 22k
Farm tag it. Noone would give a crap then..
Did the long tail cause you any issues? I can see where making a right turn tail swing might hit cars sitting at light.
nice set up Tim that's the way to go
I'm so happy for you two
Congratulations Tim, you did great buying it! You might consider changing your name to Equipment Time with Tim. Thanks Christy for the new trailer! 😀
Christy, try a tiltbed deckover. The first time is a little nerve wracking. But after several times it gets easy.
Very nice trailer!
Have you thought about replacing pick up box with flat bed? Maybe sell smaller trailer?
Yes. Seriously considered. ...but it would be heavier, and we cannot afford the extra weight
Exceptional trailer. I believe with the expansion of TTWT you will keep the green dump. Good luck
Yes, the green dump stays.
Beauty trailer.
If the trailer is 5360 empty & GVWR is 14,500, you really only have 9k lb. capacity (+ 3K in the truck) not the 12k+ you indicated based off 26k lb. GCWR.
Can you load equipment onto the hydraulic ramp portion & still be able to raise/lower it?
I bought a Load Trail trailer with the hydraulic tail on it. I love it! Also, if you have the wiring set up correctly to the truck, it will charge the system on the trailer automatically when you plug it into the truck while traveling down the road. At least mine is that way...
I think there is a problem in the truck. Not sure...tester does not indicate power on that ‘aux’ line.
Tractor Time with Tim on my f250 I had to add a relay in the fuse box and a fuse to have aux power to my trailers. It’s all factory wired. Just had to plug in a relay and fuse. I think the owners manual describes it.
I loved all yhe trooper Hoover videos and learned quite a bit. 👍🏽🙂
Just order my isotunes will be getting them in 2 days can't wait to use them with the tractor!
Just had a ‘photo shoot’ with isotunes yesterday. We’ll see what comes of that. Worst case, you’ll know if my ears are clean!!!
Tractor Time with Tim have you used them on a plane? I’m curious how they do on a plane.
Hey Tim. I have a 1025R TLB. I have a Ram 2500 Cummins. Any recommendations on trailer size to haul it (that’s all I’m hauling)?Also, any advice on securing it to the trailer for transport? Keep up the great work!
Tie downs: cargobuckles at amazon.com/shop/tractortimewithtim
16’ minimum trailer. Check out my DK trailer for a super cool one.
You should wrap chain around the entire stake pocket instead of through the hole. It gives you twice the weld to hold load and distributes weight to all four corners of the pocket instead of two on one side. I used to drive for TMC flatbed and our security requirements was 1.5 times what DOT required.
Hi TIm! some 20MM surplus ammo cans will hold all the ties and chains you need and are water tight. you can get them at gun shows or online. side note how is it getting the back draft off of that tropical storm?
Not sure how much rain we have received, but it hasn’t been very much.
Super glue a magnet on the back of the controller. That way it'll stay wherever you put it.
Hi Tim and Christy that is a very nice trailer i wish you the best of luck with it
Nice trailer. I would like to suggest that you wrap your chain around the stake pocket and back to the chain. Doing it that way you will have the full support of the welded pocket not just one side.
Nice trailer, don't know if it would work. But you might get ya a little solar panel and mount on the tongue to keep your battery up.
I like this idea.
Nice trailer tim and kristie and now you can move everything ,good choice 👍👍
The weight rating is for straight line pull any angle will reduce the capacity. As a loadmaster on c-130 we would use 75% so a 10k chain was only counted as 7500lbs
DOT allows ‘half’. However, they say that you only need straps sufficient to hold half the load. So, to simplify, you can simply add WLL together and that becomes the max load you can carry.
Your handheld trailer controller needs a magnet on the back so it doesn't fall of all the time lol..
Come to think of it, it might have one!
@@TractorTimewithTim Hey Tim...how about a wireless remote with a couple of key fobs? I'll send one out tomorrow. Thanks for sharing our BWise Trailers deck over and hydraulic dove with your followers!
Thanks Dave! Received the wireless remote today! We'll have to find some time to install it!
Once again a superb and informative video. Having been watching your videos from the beginning, I must say that you have definitely come a long way!!
Thanks for sticking with us, Tim! Appreciate your encouraging comments!
It is hard to believe that it has been ten years!!
Congratulations on the new trailer, that was an awesome purchase. As other have stated your you tube page has come a long ways, certainly enjoyed all of them and great work.
Thanks for the encouraging words, Chris!
congrats on finding bwise, welcome to the good stuff that comes out of pa
Yay I've been waiting for this video thank you guys so much for all your time you put into making videos I really enjoyed them God bless
As you would say I think I have trailer envy now again thanks for the family family videos
Great video. I appreciate all the thought and detail you provide.
If you drop the hook through the pocket, go down, pull it up the outside of the pocket between the rub-rail and frame and hook it in the top of the pocket it will stay hooked.
Exactly what I've seen done and have found to be very effective. It is convenient and a nice safety feature because the hook simply doesn't unhook on it's own even if the chain goes slack. The killjoy would be if the throat of his hooks are not big enough to slip over the stake pocket steel.
Very nice trailer Tim & Christi. Looks very useful.
I wonder if an ag cam or something like would be beneficial to keep an eye out back headed down the road
Great video and trailer. Would love to see a video on how you tie down all your loads and what to use for each application.
Jason, we have several truck and trailer Tuesday episodes showing the various tie downs that we use.
Very nice looking trailer. Looks like a wise investment for you guys with all the work you do.
What color is the trailer and how much was it? I’m looking into buying one like yours
Hammertone grey. We love this trailer! Tell em TTWT sent you when you call!
Tractor Time with Tim thanks guys so much!!
That is a pretty sweet trailer!!
Great video guys
Thinking ya's have a very nice trailer for your operations... thumbs up!
Nice Trailer Tim now you can definitely get some work done
That is a NICE trailer Tim! Congratulations!
You're not short Christy, just vertically challenged like Kat! Run for the shade Christy! I would too. Over 90 degrees and I say; "stick a fork in me, I'm done!"
Great trailer! So happy to see you guys doing good!
Hey! Haven’t heard from you in a long time. How are you doing?
@@TractorTimewithTim Doing well - busy on lots of projects...just got back from Glacier NP - was a blast! I haven't been too active on TH-cam in a while...trying to get some time to get back to it! Love the videos and the new location - congrats!
Really nice trailer, Christy and Tim. I like the dovetail ramps that wider. Have a fine week. Enjoyed a full watch.
Makes it look with the black wood on yhe ramp. Also if 5f it gets stolen it may be an extra identifier for the trailer
Great video as always. How do you like the difference in center of gravity on you load, being that your load is on top of your axles rather than in between them?
Haven’t noticed any difference yet
Will the power dovetail raise and lower with weight on it? I sometimes back onto my ramps / dovetail of my 30 deck over. It would be nice to be able to raise it with a load.
Yes it can, not sure on its lift capacity
nice gooseneck. fun fact the longer and bigger the trailer is the easier they are to back up and tow.its way easier to back a 53-foot trailer than a 4x8. the D.O.T bar came about cause too many ppl rear-ending trailers and removing their head. The D.O.T. bar does need to be a certain distance from the ground to hit regular vehicles in the grill area, instead of going under the trailer or even your big trucks like dumpsters trucks we call roll-off trucks need them too. if you will a rear bumper for vehicles who don't have them. one reason vehicle manufacturers needed to include the rear bumper in the sale of a pick-up truck I've been alive for 46 years and I know three ppl who got decapitated. and one was our math teachers husband p.s. I hope that ford has enough to pull that trailer. lol
I’m confused, based off of the model # you told us that was, that’s the bumper pull version, and the website also shows the gooseneck one with the bumper pull model #.
Yea, that is why I was confused. ...then I saw the exact model number on my VIN tag (when watching the episode just before publishing). That is when I added the extra info in text.
Another good video Tim, Congratulations on the new trailer.
GREAT Video!!
That’s a very nice trailer!
You have awesome tools/toys
Darn it. I bought my b wise gooseneck dump after you video at the show, was actually hoping to see mine being built while you were on the factory tour. I love it but have ran into the same issue with space. It's a pain to take my bobcat, grapple, bucket and anything else. Even my bx24 with loader and brush hog is longer than 18'. I've been looking for a 14k gooseneck because of the gvw on my truck too, guess I have to put in another order with b wise too! Thanks for the review!
Nice set up real nice
Tim ... what is the capacity on the divetail of your new trailer? Can you raise it to level with a piece of equipment or a tractor on the tail ?
Not sure of the capacity, but yes, you can raise with equipment on the tail. The cylinder is huge diameter! Very strong!
That's a beautiful trailer Tim, and the new house is even more beautiful, I think your wife is even more guilty with getting the new equipment than she wants to admit. I'm a bit behind in the video's but was you able to fix the flooding issue in your front lawn with your pond?
The flooding is an ongoing problem. We will continue to work it.
They make d-rings that slide into the stake pockets, look them up!
they are phenomenal, partner with etrailer, maybe they’ll hook ya up!
Love the new trailer
Another awesome video .. Thanks Tim and Christy ...
Enjoyed the video Tim & Christy. Really nice trailer. So when you carry two pieces of equipment and the back piece is still on the dovetail section the hydraulics are strong enough to pick it up to the transport position? Y'all take care and God bless.
Yes
I received a notification to this thread that started:
"Dan's Tractor Channel replied: "This past Thursday while exhibiting at an arborist show, I had the opportunity to talk with a Connecticut DMV officer who had a booth...."
But when I click on it I'm taken to an older reply from Dan's Tractor Channel that starts out:
"That is my dream trailer but I have been hesitant to get one. I understand the total GVW regulations regarding DOT numbers...."
Am I doing something wrong, I'd like to read the reply about the DMV officer?
How much weight can you park on the Dove Tail and still lift into position for moving down the road?
I think a Good idea for a Video would be traveling to John Deere Plant in Iowa to watch one or more of the Tractors you use be built. Just a thought.
Nice trailers will be interesting to see how they all get used in the future.
Shane none of the tractors that he use are built at the JD factory in Iowa the one and two series are actually assembled in Augusta Ga and the five series is actually built in India
@@bradcoddington1679Ok yeah I thought about that after I had commented about that part. Ok then a trip to Augusta GA would be ok too.
It's a nice trailer and your right trailers are high priced
Nice trailer!!! Hope to see it in action soon. You keep buying equipment your sheds not going to be big enough LOL
I’ve been looking at trailers lately. Looked at everything from “landscape” trailers with a gate, to tip trailers, and flat bed trailers with ramps. Everything at least 16’ with two axles. Thinking a tip trailer or landscape trailer with a gate but haven’t bought anything yet.
Had one salesman tell me it would be ok to go with a single axle trailer 14’ long to haul my 1025R. I didn’t like the thought of 14’ or single axle. He claimed they hauled their Kubota BX tractor on it all the time no problem.
We did an episode describing the diffeeent trailer types. I don’t like the landscape trailers because of the permanent sides.
Put a solar panel on it to keep the battery charged. I put a magnet on the back of my remote so I can just stick it to the side of my trailer when needed.
Really nice trailer i like the design of all gooseneck trailers
Great video
Great looking trailer
I love watching other people spending their money ! Tim, is that beavertail meant to carry weight going down the road,or do you have to keep everything forward of it ? If so, how much weight will those hydraulics lift other than the weight of the trailer bed ?
Yes, intended to carry weight. Can lift Lots of weight. I do not know the specs.
Trailer gvwr minus trailer empty weight equals payload capacity.
14500-5300 (approx) =9200 pounds of cargo.
Ah, but by moving the load forward on the trailer, much weight is transferred to the truck axles
