    Trailer towing speed

    Iv been told many times you can’t travel at 50k with a normal oil braked low loader/livestock box as you need air brakes to travel above 40k, yet I see that nearly everyone does and doesn’t seem to bother the trailer?

    Michelin tyres 650 / 85 r38

    Fastrac icon

    Driving a Fastrac Icon on steep hills with loaded trailers is there a way to perform an “ anti jackknife “ like New Holland, JD, Claas, etc where it activates the trailer brakes without losing transmission? On the pre-Icon models I was told to knock it into “ Powershift “ mode, but new ones...
