I personally have nothing but GOOD things to say about Big Tex!! I bought a brand new 70DM 18 foot, steel deck car trailer in 2003. Myself (and everyone I have ever loaned it to) have over loaded the shit out of it for 20 years now and there is not one single broken weld on this trailer! Yes, I have replaced wheel bearings multiple times and both axles at least once but it just keeps going! It literally just needs 7k axles. Love this little trailer.
Went through a ton of online research to make sure my tractor would balance correctly and tilt one of these down. A lot of tilt trailers have the axles too far forward. Ended up with a Diamond C HDT. Works perfect.
@@howardthemechanicbubba5376 It depends I think, I just picked up a 2022 Diamond-C HDT and apparently it has 4" drop axles which are standard but apparently they do also install straight axles. Not sure if that makes any difference with ground clearance but just my .02 cents
Hi Howard I been researching for about 18 months and I see all the value and the ROI in your purchased could you tell me the model for the one you got ! Thanks for the great video ! Great Info ! I got a KUBOTA BX23s with front and rear implement. Also the TeeTotal price :) Thanks bro !
@@alexmuela92 so is Kleenex. That's how it became the colloquial nomenclature for facial tissue, by being the brand so ubiquitous as to become synonymous with the overall product. Just like bush hog being an early innovator and major manufacturer of brush cutters with a brand name that's descriptive and genuine.

Good review. I like your honest opinion.

How low to the ground is it? Thanks for watching

How long is your tilt trailer?
20ft full tilt deck
As someone that just got a big tex they dont have the best welds either.
🤣 the end. I got a big tex up the road. I'd really like to get a dump trailer. I wish these tilt trailers could tilt as much as a dump trailer.
If I didn’t have a shredder to haul, I’d buy a good dump trailer to haul equipment. Generally higher off the ground.
I agree with you on the "drive over" fenders. If you have to drive over the fenders you need a deckover trailer.
Why does this guy call his bush hog a shredder?
Why not? Common term used in Texas.
@@howardthemechanicbubba5376 that explains it and much more

Big tex have welding future problems
They have weld issues on a particular model or just in general? So far so good on the 2-Iv owned
