indeed it is yes - that’s for sane (20-26) spec as our exiting on michilin and equipped with rear tow, removing those things knocks a couple thousand off


would rather not have to buy new but to get the 26m3 we need it’s looking like no other choice

Same trailer cost 21k 4 years ago for comparison/ ag machine price inflation !

awaiting a Larrington quote but expect it to be more than Stewart based on past experience and quotes
Walling tractors have a Stewart 18-23
Hi spec demo cond £24.750

I was thinking that. I would be tempted to look at rising sun, they may be ex hire but the ones I have seen are immaculate.
Our Stewart is ex rising Sun trailer hire.

It's a good trailer but should have bought a new broughan for same money.

Ours is a 16t L 21 cube which is root spec. Should have bought a S which is shorter and deeper. Didn't think it would be a problem when we bought it.

Should really just weld greedy boards on it and make it 20t.

The company I drive for hire a load for potato harvest I think a lot of their fleet will be aimed at similar. My Richard Western is standard grain spec to the point I have to be careful where u park it to make sure I can get the spout over on my TX65 really impressed with it so far and pleased I spent the money and bought new. 2 years Lloyds interest free finance was a help.

should look up EJM fabrications on facebook , look to make a well specced trailer that looks to painted to a high standard , using 2k off shore spec
They may well be very good, but off shore spec doesn't really mean anything. I use off shore spec paint on nearly everything (international intergard primer and interseal topcoat) and it is very good but there are plenty of not so good off shore paints out there too
