Witzco Challenger Trailers has new and improved spring and equalizer suspensions on its Ready-To-Work Series of heavy-haul trailers. This suspension system is lighter than previous generations, yet provides smoother load rides even under rugged conditions. The complete line of Challenger trailers also come with air-ride suspension systems.

These trailers offer lower approach angles and deck heights, for improved loading/off loading of low-profile equipment. Load capacities range from 45,000 to 100,000 pounds. Load space is adequate for carrying multiple pieces of equipment. Each model is now available with Witzco's new “Rolling Tailboard” feature, with an optional integrated hydraulic winch motor, and popup bed rollers for loading and unloading machinery, tanks, freight, and industrial or construction equipment. The Ready-To-Work series includes:

  • RG-50 model — removable gooseneck with triple 25,000-lb-capacity axles, and 100,000-lb load capacity, spring and equalizer-ride suspension, and air S-cam brakes

  • HT-35 model — standard air-ride suspension, rear folding hydraulic ramps for ultra-low loading approach angle. Powered by twin cylinders using positive hydraulic locking system

  • TT-22.5 model — versatile tag trailer with beavertail, twin 60" flip ramps available as spring-assisted manual feature or with optional electric driven hydraulics
