Thicko alert:
I would like to buy a triaxle low loader - proper break-neck, removable gooseneck, whatever - and run it at 44t GTW.
The job I have in mind is light enough to not require STGO but obviously most trailers for sale of this spec have been used under special types. Some seem to have a C&U plate on them as well as STGO. Assuming I don’t buy a wide 9ft one, does anyone know if I would be able to MOT one and use it with my ‘normal’ 6x2 44t unit?
Yes you would be able to but its a ball ache.
Also you would in my opinion de value it by turning it into in essence a normal trailer when the time comes to move it on…
Pm me if you want to know how to go about making it into a normal trailer and mot it mate.
If a trailer is dual plated, I.e. a C&U and a STGO plate can’t you run it at 44 t with a normal 6x2 tractor unit?
