Will The Trailer Valet RVR Work With a Tandem Axle Pontoon Boat Trailer?
Question:
Does the trailer valet work with a double axel boat trailer for a 24 foot pontoon?
asked by: Steve
Expert Reply:
When using the Trailer Valet with a tandem axle trailer it is recommended to use the Trailer Valet Trailer Wheel Dollies # TV56FR under the rear wheels. The dollies will provide you with much better turning radius, as the tires will try and bind up when taking sharp turns otherwise.
I see you were looking at the RVR3 # TVRVR3-BB225 which is only rated for a trailer up to 3,500lbs with 165-350lbs of tongue weight. If your trailer and pontoon weight more than 3,500lbs together you will need to step up to the RVR5 # TVRVR5 which is rated for up to 5,500lbs of trailer weight and 165-550lbs of tongue weight. The 165 pounds of tongue weight for these is needed to give the rover enough traction to move the trailer.
