Subject: Re: Quarter frame dump trailer


East central Indiana
we have had both. If you want to haul lime and stone a full frame trailer is better. Because you can back in and dump. 1/4 frames you need to be mostly straight with your trailer before you dump. A full frame is more stable when you have it in the air for extended periods such as dumping corn. We have owned both if you are gonna long haul with the truck go with the 1/4 frame its lighter. You get better pay loads. If your gonna be close to home go with the full frame. Round compared to box makes no difference there both equal. Also with the 1/4 frame you do have to block your fifth wheel so it stays flat. All the movement happens on the trailer. sorry no pics availible to show you.
