Been looking into slurry tankers around the 2700gallon mark. Slurrykat and major being the final choices.
I’ve seen both working and impressed but struggling to find much difference between the two.
Both similarly priced
Has anyone worked on either brand or got any experience using them both for a few seasons?
looking to have them dribblebar/trailing shoe ready
Thanks

Make sure the axle is rated for the weight its carrying as iv had problems on my nc and have heard of other brands breaking axles so that is my pennies worth about tankers

I’ve a major 2400 here for Over 10 years , I’ve had a 2050 before that , both great tankers , very well built , the major chassis design is brilliant, the tank is sitting into a frame . Can’t go wrong with a major.

Both are over sized axles and running gear. With stepped axles. We run a lot of steep and narrow roads so it’s a must to have good brakes
