Thanks for this detailed video ChassisBlack73. That is about the nicest and well equipped hot shot trailer I've seen, you really added some critically important options to hot shot effectively. There's a lot of crap out there and this very well-done video exemplifies just how high-quality Iron Bull (norstar) is. They should give you a commission CB73! Good choice on adding the Gen-Y coupler too, easier on you and the truck. Keep the good material coming ChassisBlack, much appreciated!
Thank you
You can use the compressor to put air into the tires. Fantastic trailer. Just love the dual wheel setup. Trailer is built to haul serious loads.
Sweet looking trailer...nice that it has air assist axles & ramp, compressor and wench. Yes, I would like to see the wiring on it. Those are some heavy tandems. Thanks!🤩
thats a very professional setup. I like seeing the hotshot world looking good.
Bro that’s a Cadillac trailer.... dope!!!
Nice trailer. I have a LoadTrail 40 ft. I have had a lot of trouble with the condensation freezing up north. I got a air dryer filter from tractor supply and place it right in front of the compressor in the air line before it exits the toolbox and I have no problems going-0 degree weather. Also my hydraulic dove tail I have to push a leaver to make it unlock to go down. Thanks I like it.
That’s a sweet Trailer. I love the attention to detail that they put into your trailer.
Thank you. Yes they did well. I'll be having an update video soon to go over the good and bad after 10k miles
@@THUNDERstroke73 try this, raise the front of the trailer befor lowering the ramp, that will lesson the high center point.
Do an update in 5 years on how the trailer is holding up and how warranty was handled by the manufacture.
I’m in the market, and this is the best I’ve seen. Thanks for sharing
Very impressive gooseneck trailer, you should be proud of that fine trailer,powder coat paint looks great
Thank you
Very nice trailer! May have to borrow a few of those niceties / ideas like the chain hooks and add them to my own gooseneck.
Hell ya man
Very fancy trailer you got there! I want to build a flatbed from scratch, I now have some idea's of what I want to do. Nothing too fancy it's a stripped down camper frame right now. The axles aren't much but the frame itself is made of massive I-beams which should hold a lot of weight.
That's awesome
Thanks for showing. I will never own a rig like this, but it's nice understanding what's out there better.
This reminds me of a diamond c trailer with some of the ways it’s built.
Nice trailer bro. The only thing I would change is only having the rubber floor in the middle of the deck only to allow pallets to slide when loading but still have the resistance to secure it from sliding in transit. This trailer looks like you’ll get plenty of work out of it💯
Thank you
I haven’t seen the option to only do the rubber in the middle. Is that an option?
Bird Gunter yep they do it how ever you ask 👍🏽
So you need a CDL for your truck and trailer, also they should have lift axles on both wheels this way you can have even tire wear.
Now that's Funny...lift both axials you would have Full Air Ride and Fuel economy would be Great.👍
Awesome looking trailer! Hope it works flawless for you
So far 2300 miles and doing well!! Thanks!!
@@THUNDERstroke73 if u dont mind me asking how u get passed dot inspection with your front side windowd tinted like that? I want mine tinted like that... can u share some insight on that?
@@THUNDERstroke73 how much u avg a week bring home ?
That trailer is absolutely perfect, love the lifting axel!!!!
How much was that set up?
25k
Chicken is the pet that poops breakfast. Awesome trailer by the way
thx for this walkaround!
Also check ur anchor screws for the hardware in the toolbox they will rattle loose and tear up some stuff. After 1.5 years if u run in the salt u need to change the caliper orings and anti rattle springs if u don’t they will just loose and fall on ur rotor if u have disc brakes. If not ur good. Thanks again
Great piece of equipment. That dovetail; never seen one however it gives you an advantage to load different items and also was thinking the same thing in regards to load angle- adding some additional ramps to compensate for the pitch angle would be nice if they were able to lock into that ramp via some locking pins to prevent them from dancing when loading and unloading with just one person.
Ya I built some additional ramps for cars and what not that elevate the tail 14 inches higher and drastically decreases the angle
Can you please show where solar panels are for charging, will batteries also charge while in transit off of truck? Also can you please tell us about the air compressor and storage tank for air ride? Also, let's say that you are are going to load a car....you get front wheels on the main deck, can you lift rest of car with the hydraulic dove tail? How much weight can you put on the dove tail when it is up in lock position? Nice truck and trailer. Thanks for the video, keep the videos coming. God Bless you and your family
I can't believe how many people "watched" the video then wrote a bunch of dumb questions that "if" they had seen the video they would know the answers to them, either that or people are just clueless and have no idea what they just saw.
Does it have electric over hydraulic brakes? If so, I think they must be drum rather than disk. I think 12000 lb. is as large as you can go with disk. Thanks. Nice trailer!
Great trailer. To make money you got to have the best.
Ok in SC what brand trailer, what type Teailer? What length trailer? What options, opinions & tips would you recommend ? I have CDL :)
58 years Young,
Every weekend home 🏠
Or every other day
that Will be helpful what’s your experience :) thanks 🙏
Would it interest you to be able to add hydraulic gooseneck jacks that run off of the hydraulic dovetail's power unit?
I really like your whole setup, both the truck and the trailer. Please, how much did the setup cost you as it is?
Looks like a very well built trailer. How much retail???
Please can some one use this to haul excavator ....mid size excavator ... And how ton is this ?
Are you still pulling THIS trailer , and would you do a 2 year review on IT and your truck ?
I am not. I'll tell you Ironbull is good but don't get air ride. Get torsion suspension instead. And don't waste time with a hydraulic tail. For the truck I highly recommend the Ford 6.7. But don't get anything more then an XLT. Save the money. That's my best advice for ya.
@@THUNDERstroke73 Thank you ! Appreciate your reply !
Nice video and trailer what's the cost on one like that
Nice trailer im looking at getting a gooseneck trailer for my excavator !
I made a previous comment, but you mentioned the lift axle, and kind of what I was wondering, why don't they let you choose front or rear lift axle. Tight driveways and turnarounds would be easier if the rear axle was lifted, shorter wheelbase, just watch for tail swing. The other thing I was wondering , does the Gen Y hitch fight with the air ride trailer, or counteract?
That trailer super nice. Only if u had a Dodge pulling it. Lol
Hello, how much did your trailer cost you? Would you suggest it for non CDL hauling considering the Limit combination weights?
Might want to put some gasket around that tool box lid.
And a light. If you need a light in the shop for filming, you definitely need one on a rainy night trying to load up.
I knew I saw an orange Jeepster Commando! I had a 69 Jeepster Commando, that damn thing was unstoppable! Oh, nice trailer too.
That trailer is bad ass brother. 👍👍
Didn't notice a suspension dump valve. You always want to dump the bags before unloading. It will prolong the life of your bags. You don't want them fully extending everytime you unload. Also take that jack out of the box or secure it. Wouldnt want it sliding into your valves or compressor.
Agreed
Great video homie I was wondering if you could hauled cars on your trailer
I could if there was a loading dock. Definitely can't drive a car up the ramp naturally. Too steep
I aint no Trail King but for a home made trailer and 12v electric hydraulics not bad
I bought a 32 Feet trailer like you a PJ and was was taking to the thumb area of Michigan and was pulled over and given a Ticket for not having the correct CDL license rating. I have a regular Chauffeurs license but apparently i have to have CDL-A license a Misdemeanor ticket, one time with nothing on it because the GVRW is 25000 lbs. so i am trading it off for a tag trailer so the dump trucks can haul the small equipment, its sad when they give a ticket for weight thats not on there but might be on there so to that they can shove it all they did was cost michigan money in tax revenues because we are done with it.
That is a beautiful trailer!
I assume to help the load angle you can air down the suspension first.
How much does it weigh ? Sweet trailer
Would you mind sharing how much such trailer would cost? And how long did you have to wait?
He said $25k and 3 months
nice! I'd love to get into hauling someday! Love your shop too
Nice setup I think I would want the lift axel to be the rear axel make it a shorter turn radius
Hey on the metal on deck put grip tape it comes in 3inch wide an uptown 6inch so its not slippery
Did u buy those strap hookups or does it come with the trailer
That'll be the one. Nice Trailer. Good Video.
Thanks man
ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! I COULDN'T SPOT THE SOLAR PANELS THAT CHARGE THE BATTERIES OR ARE THEY NOT MOUNTED ON THE TRAILER? 👍👍👍
Mounted after the video on the neck
@@THUNDERstroke73 NICE! 👍👍👍
Very Nice Trailer is this a CDL or non CDL and possible weight and price . Respectfully L.H.
CDL yes. $25000
THAT GREAT TRAILER
THANK YOU DETAIL VIDEO
FROM AUSTRALIA
You're welcome mate
If you dump your suspension you can get the load angle even lower
Beautiful trailer man, good for you! What’s the unloaded weight on it?
12k
Now that’s it’s been a year, how that rubber on the deck doing?
Awesome trailer man. U must be having chicken for dinner. Lol
Hahahaha oh ya
Does air compressor have outlet for air hose hookup for air ratchet and air jack.
Good question
Good video... So what can you put on the deck? 30k? Maybe if you had a different truck?
19k is max
Awesome trailer!
Thank you
Cool where did you get it at
Really Really nice 👌, great job
very nice trailer. what is the purpose of the torque tube. i never seen that before
Prevent trailer twist. Especially when turning
How long is the bed and dovetail itself? Assume 40' length includes the gooseneck? Thx
Deck total is 40 feet over all. Dove is 9
VERY nice trailer👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Sweet trailer! Any problems with it? How many miles now?
Been a great trailer. I'm not even sure the miles on the trailer. Atleast 30k
Nice trailer, how much $ ?
Sweet trailer!
I wondered what the list price on that identical trailer is
This a $48k trailer now days! Isn't crazy?😂
Nice big tool box
Does Iron Bull have a website where you can check out all their options or is this something you have to do at a dealership? I didn’t see a website, apologize if I just missed it.
Try this thing called "Google", it works.
www.norstarcompany.com/
Figured with that size trailer you'd be using an F450? Great looking setup.
Numbers wise a man is crazy to buy a 450.. both trucks have the same gvwr and similar gcwr and the insurance and tag fees are much higher on a 450
Except you get way better brakes with the 450
If you don’t mind me asking but where in Texas did you special order your Ironbull trailer? Thanks
I ordered it from MW Equipment in Sterling, Colorado
@@THUNDERstroke73 thank you that’s a very nice trailer worth every penny
Great looking trailer.. I was looking at that 15k axle configuration over @ Maxxd & Diamond C. I opted for 40k Maxxd trailer with monster ramps. I don't use my rsmps that often,but i still want a hydraulic dove. Why did you go with the northstar trailer?
My dealer sells Maxxd as well, so I debated between the 2 for awhile. But I went with them because I had owned one before this one and liked it. Also because I liked the design of the hydraulic dovetail. Not a flawless trailer but does well so far
I really liked the Maxxd. I felt Diamond C was overpriced compared to others
Two questions, (thanks in advance for your reply)
1, What does your trailer weigh with required equipment (chains etc.)
2, How frequently do you have to pass on a load due to it being too heavy ?
12000lbs
I never pass on anything that's less then 19000lbs
ChassisBlack73 thanks!!!
That's one sweet trailer!
Thanks man
Hello God bless you. Where can I buy 40’ for hotshot.?
What’s the payload as is?
Sweet trailer man I wish I had it when I had my hotshot company I ran a 22GN Bigtex and it was a great trailer but the only problem I had with it was the damn dovetail dragging almost every where I went.
That would drive me crazy
I also asked in another video, do you have issues with the trailer bearing weight on the dovetail? I can't find info on any hydraulic dovetail for weight bearing beyond center.
How much does it weigh
How’s your trailer holding up? I just ordered a full tilt, steel deck TLG.
Really nice trailer.. I'd like to see how the air bag system works. I figure the aft axle has 2 bags, but the forward axle must have 4. 2 for ride and two for lift, right???
That's correct
Can you dump all the air to make the deck lower?
@@peteholloway7988 yes
How’s it working out for you so far I like their trailers
So far it's good. The air ride is nice but I'd probably go with hutch suspension next time.
Is that outside tire flat
Wondering the same...but the rear axle looks the same. I wonder if it’s an odd combination of the rim and tire that makes the rib edge stick out
What was the price of your unit?
pretty nice rig
Sorry to bug, I had an identical trailer quoted, they want to charge me 34k. Did you order straight from norstar or from one of their dealers?
Ordered mine through the best dealer in the country with the best prices. Mike at MW Equipment in Sterling, Colorado
Thank you sir! I got quoted out of California... California prices. I’ll give them a lookup and see what they can do for me! I really appreciate it man!
Also 34k outrageous. Something isn't right there. Whatever you do, don't get fooled
That's crazy. Buy through him and I'll deliver it!!!
It’s California greed man. The only thing I’m doing different from you is a few more D-Rings, a 4 way wireless remote, and hydraulic jacks.
Good video. Thanks
Looks like this company copied the trailers Fred Mann used to build in Waterville, KA. He was the first person to patent a self lockable hydraulic tail used on a trailer other then a semi trailer. It operated the same way as this fellow demonstrated operating this trailer. To lower the tail, a Mann trailer tail would rise slightly, un lock, then lower. The same with raising. It would raise higher then level, lock, then comeback down. I know this because I had one of his trailers & was a dealer for him.
The trailer I had also had twin hydraulic jacks in front. Also, if you twisted a pin on both sides, you could raise the trailer while the neck was in a bent position. The dolly jacks could either be up or down for this procedure.
You said that you wouldn’t have air ride again. Is there any certain reason why?
Thanks.
Extra cost mostly. If your compressor fails or a bag fails, you're dead in the water. Hutch suspension is what I would recommend
Hey thank you for the video informative through it though I kept asking myself did the Cheapskate Americans use a cheapskate paint job didn't you say it was powder coated hot dog I bought a brand new 2009 Fontaine step deck 53 ft long cheapest paint that they could buy it take long to rust out after beating it to Pieces over 2 years I got rid of the junk I like the idea of powder coating you pay a big price for something you should get quality
whats the weight of the trailer
Is that a chicken I hear or some other kind of bird ? Are you raising egg layers ?
Oh ya I have chickens and ducks
Nice!! Hopefully I can afford one!
Just curious what does a trailer like this run $?
