"More Trailer For Your Money"

7 x 22 Maxx-D G8X 17.5K Tilt Trailer – Ready To Work!

D-Rings, Torsion Axles

The MAXX-D G8X is the heavy-duty big brother to the G6X. While they share the same gravity-tilt DNA, the G8X is engineered for the contractor or operator stepping up to 17,500 lb. GVWR

It is designed to handle the increased weight of mid-sized excavators and heavy-spec skid steers that would push a standard 14K trailer to its legal and structural limits.

CORE FEATURES OF THE MAXX-D G8X Gravity-Tilt with Hydraulic Cushion Cylinder The G8X uses a heavy-duty hydraulic dampening cylinder to control the deck’s movement.

• The Benefit: No batteries to charge and no pumps to maintain. You simply unlatch the deck and let gravity do the work. The cushion cylinder prevents the trailer from "slamming" shut when you drive a heavy machine past the pivot point, protecting your equipment’s tracks and tires.

8" x 3" x 1/4" Heavy-Duty Tube Steel Frame While the G6X uses a 6" tube, the G8X jumps to a massive 8" boxed tube frame.

• The Benefit: This is the most critical upgrade. As equipment gets heavier, frame flex becomes the enemy. The 8" tube provides the torsional rigidity needed to support concentrated loads (like a steel-tracked excavator) without the frame bowing or the tilt hinges binding over time.

8,000 lb. Dexter® Torsion Axles (Standard) The G8X comes standard with 8K axles

• The Benefit: These aren't just higher capacity; they feature larger brakes and 17.5" 18-ply commercial tires. The torsion suspension keeps the deck height low for a shallow loading angle while providing a much smoother ride than leaf springs when hauling heavy machinery.

Split-Deck Design (Stationary Front + Tilting Rear) Most G8X models are configured with a 4' to 8' stationary front deck and a 16' tilting rear section.

• The Benefit: This is essential for professional crews. You can keep your buckets, hydraulic breakers, or fuel tanks on the level stationary deck while tilting the rear to swap out machines. It keeps your attachments organized and secure during the loading process.

Knife-Edge Tapered Tail The rear of the tilt deck features a reinforced, low-profile steel "knife edge."

• The Benefit: This creates a seamless transition from the pavement to the trailer. It is specifically designed for equipment with small wheels or low ground clearance (like scissor lifts or smooth-drum rollers) that would otherwise struggle with a traditional "bump" at the end of a trailer.

Standard 12,000 lb. Drop-Leg Jack To handle the increased tongue weight of 16K+ loads, the G8X steps up to a heavy-duty 12K jack.

• The Benefit: It provides the stability needed when the trailer is unhooked at the job site. The spring-loaded drop leg makes setup and teardown significantly faster, saving your back and your time.

THE G8X QUICK SPECS - GVWR: 17,500 lbs

• Crossmembers: 3" Channel on 16" Centers (12" O.C. recommended for heavy tracks).
• Frame: 8" Tube Steel.
• Tires: ST215/75R17.5 18-Ply Radial Tires (H-Rated).
• Tie-Downs: Stake Pockets, Rubrail, and heavy-duty Bullnose D-Rings.
• Finish: MAXX-D 6-Step Powder Coat with Zinc-Rich Primer.

G8X vs. G6X: WHY STEP UP? 1. Axle Strength: The move to 8K axles and 17.5" tires virtually eliminates "flat-tire anxiety" on the highway. 2. Frame Bulk: The 8" tube frame is significantly more resistant to the "twisting" forces applied by heavy, off-center equipment. 3. Legal Payload: With the 16K or 17.5K GVWR, you can legally haul the newest generation of heavy-spec compact track loaders (CTLs) that often exceed the 10,000 lb. machine weight.

IDEAL USERS FOR THIS TRAILERThe MAXX-D G8X is the premier choice for Excavation Companies, Paving Crews, and Heavy Equipment Dealers. It is perfect for those who prioritize maximum frame strength and commercial-grade tires in a simple, gravity-tilt package that doesn't rely on electronics.
