Motorized Trailer Dolly TX6000 -By TRAX Power Dolly Systems Inc.

[@steffen707-]

I like the turning trailer in a circle, that's amazing.

[@kerry4951]

I just bought one and took possession this week. The unit was packaged very well and once I had it out of the box it was easy to see how well this TRAX dolly is made. Due to our current weather I havent been able to use it too much so Im looking forward to using it more this spring and summer. It really is a quality built unit and you can tell a lot of pride went into building these.

[@scottburgle2169]

And how well is it working 6 years later?

[@kerry4951]

@@scottburgle2169 sold it about 3 years ago. Didnt work well on stone/gravel parking lot. OK on concrete and hard surfaces. They also later added a T handle. Mine only had the single grip handle and that was a negative in my opinion.

A lot of people have been inquiring about the weight of the toy hauler trailer that's been featured in a few of our videos. We designed the TX 6000 to ideally maneuver a 6000 pound trailer. However, The trailer featured in the videos weighed in at 7400 pound gross weight. Other customers asked if the TRAX TX6000 motorized trailer mover could push and pull a trailer up a large grade. We tested both directions with amazing results, even on a measured 10% grade.

[@vagandoeverywhere]

This thing is awesome! I installed a purpleline trailer mover on mine but I would have gotten this had i known it existed!

[@johnfischer1708]

I just bought one of these. Two things, the model I got does not have the hydraulic jack to lift the collar, but rather a long lever and a lifting mechanism. Secondly, there are additional parts (big black collar, screw piece) included that I have no idea what they are for. Are there instructions somewhere for this newer? design and how to use it?

Cool product! I see that it is capable of turning with a tandem axle trailer but, need to see a video of maneuverability on concrete or asphalt.... stone will give/move under the stationary wheels to where on a hard surface, the wheels have a lot more grip and the surface beneath them will not move.

controls look very familiar, they appear to be off an ebike of some sort? neat unit but seems like a large unit to store after use. Does it fold ?

[@Traxpowerdollysystems]

Yes, the handle is easily removable

[@partimermn]

I'm impressed. The two thing I see missing is a place to carry two extra balls. Many people have all three sizes of trailers and it would be nice carry all three with you. It would also keep balls from getting lost. The other thing that would be nice is a little tray that would hold your tire blocks and jack block while you move your trailer. I could possibly see one in my future.

[@Traxpowerdollysystems]

We would be more than happy to build a ball rack for you if that is what you would like to have. One of the greatest joys TRAX POWER DOLLY SYSTEMS INC. has is the ability to design anything, laser cut almost any kind of metal with perfect precision to the desire of our customers. Keep an eye open for new TRAX products. Both in motorized trailer dollies and attachments. We produce the highest in quality, speed, and ease of use. Give us a call anytime and talk to our friendly sales staff, we are always happy to answer any of your questions or ideas.

[@kerry4951]

There is enough space under the battery lid to stow my 2 extra balls. I have all 3 sizes and it is nice to have them all handy. With the unit that I just bought they sent along rubber battery terminal covers so they protect any metal contact that could cause arcing so I feel the balls are safe in there. The only thing I had to do was use shorter terminal bolts since the ones that come with the batteries are a little too long, not allowing the rubber terminal boots to cover 100%. The shorter bolts work great and I now have full terminal protection.

[@danlux4954]

[@tomk3732]

Very nice home shop design - I am going to make one with help of spare winch. Main problem is that my boat trailer as many boat trailers does not have electric brakes but proportional brakes so I have to modify your design with some strong brakes. I also make it a bit more heavy duty with double tires on the weight axle for more traction uphill. Cool project.

[@dominiquemiller4513]

It might make it a lot easier to turn if the handle was attached to the caster and not to the entire body. I like the product!

[@jdsawlor]

Dominique, the caster wheel isn't a drive wheel, it simply drags behind the tow dolly for support and ease of transport.

[@dominiquemiller4513]

Yes I know but the handle is attached to the body which means you have to turn the entire body of the machine. If you just attach the handle to the caster then you are only turning the caster to change direction and not the entire body.

[@zoidlrrr4633]

Dominique Miller what he is trying to say is the caster wheel doesn’t support all of the weight. If you turned the caster wheel, there is not enough weight on it, so it would just be pushed straight.

[@Davidipac]

[@peter2679]

What is the degree limit for a hard dry surface incline?

[@Traxpowerdollysystems]

This depends on tongue weight vs total gross weight, the more tongue weight to total gross weight will allow for larger grades as it’s the tongue weight that will determine best traction for the pushing, pulling and stopping the trailer.

[@johnharrison1429]

OK - I'm sold. Your design seems MUCH more well though out than your competitors' products. I also like this because it does NOT use the "standard" ATV winch motor. I'll be ordering within the next couple of weeks. Your video of the tandem doing tight donut turns sold me. Nice work.

[@Traxpowerdollysystems]

Thank you, John! The TRAX Power Dolly team spent many years researching all the different trailer dolly systems and found many of them lacking in ease of use, most won't connect to standard trailer ball mounts and most are very noisy and extremely slow. We didn't leave out any customer requests when designing the TX6000. The toy hauler that we are using for our test videos was certified weighing at 7400 pounds. It easily pushed and pulled the trailer up a 10% grade and shoved the tandem axels right sideways doing a full 360º donuts. Feel free to give us a call anytime. 1.519.860.8729

I like the motorized deal you have there, but you never showed how to get this into a garage in tight space where a vehicle cant get to. Long explanations. Think I can use a hydraulic floor jack on wheels or dolly with a hitch on it.This trailer dolly takes a long time to hook up also.

[@1StopFabShop]

Once you have the adjustments set it only takes a few seconds to connect and disconnect. If you look at their other videos you’ll see them using it on grass, gravel, on a grade, moving much heavier trailers than advertised and honestly it’s one of the easiest trailer dollies out there. The new design connection is now fully adjustable for almost every kind of latch assembly.

[@jejoko]

How much of an incline grade can it handle?

[@Traxpowerdollysystems]

Raw Fish, this is dependent on a few factors. Gross weight, tongue weight, and Ground texture type. I’ve used it on a 10% grade pushing a 7400 pound trailer up the grade with an 800 pound tongue weight.

This is something we did for one customer, but I will say we have to build a wheel adapter for the boat trailer so that it would not sink in softer sand.

Speed, noise, ease of connecting / disconnecting, cycle drive time, variable speed control, multiple adaptor plates, built in motor brake control, low amp draw from the battery ( unlike most winch motors draw huge amount of amps thus causing damaged battery and overheating electric motors. This is why most winch motored dollies have a cycle time 5mins or less. ) We spent a lot of time in development to ensure TRAX Dollies are top-tier over any other design out there at a great low price. We haven't changed our prices in over 6 years now and we manufacture and assemble everything possible under one roof. Canadian built and designed

[@atwowheelguy]

10% grade is standard terminology for describing a slope and is perfectly clear. It means a slope with 1 ft rise per 10 ft horizontal distance. A 10% grade is equal to a 5.7 degree angle. A 100% grade is equal to a 45 degree angle.

Just my 2 cents but when a product is not sold on Amazon? The only thing I can think of is the manufacturer does not want reviews ...because it CAN'T be just the premium Amazon charges ...that makes zero sense as any reason given the price can simply be adjusted ..SO unless something is on Amazon? I wont consider it ...note that a lot of times I don't actually BUY an item on amazon but I do rely on the feedback provided it has not been reset over and over as sellers of crap DO....if you ever get your quality up to scrutiny I might buy one! Although I have no idea how much they even cost...maybe it is a good product and the seller is just one with that evil mindset that is like "I have to SELL each one personally to a customer and squeeze every last nickel out him"
