Can The Detail K2 Mighty Multi A-Frame Utility Trailer # K2MMT5X7 Tailgate Handle a 600LB Tractor?
Question:
Hi. Would I be able to load a 600 lb. garden tractor onto this trailer? Im assuming it would have to be tilted down. Wondering if the tailgate is strong enough to handle 600 lbs. Thanks.

Yes, you will be able to load your 600lb garden tractor on the Detail K2 Mighty Multi A-Frame Utility Trailer # K2MMT5X7. The trailer will need to be tilted and for loading purposes Detail K2 recommends no more than 400lbs on the tailgate itself. As your tractor will not have that amount on the tailgate all at one time you will not have issues when loading.
We do have some Valterra Non-Skid Grip Tape # A10-2260 that will help the tractor get up the slope of the trailer in wet conditions.
