Watch this before buying a dump trailer! Iron Bull Nortstar 7x14 dump trailer

[@TKCL]

Over a year later I still LOVE my trailer and have had zero issues after hauling rock, logs, mulch, dirt and so much more. Due to the current financial environment prices have went up, but it's still far cheaper than the big names and I still highly recommend it. Give Trailer Country a call, they had the best prices I could find.

[@brianwluxevovacations215]

what model is this trailer?

[@cabinviewventures]

I appreciate the good informative videos. I’m currently shopping for a 14’ dump trailer. How is the paint holding up on the floor? I was set on a Lamar until I noticed they don’t primer before powder coat.

[@TKCL]

DTB8314072-10007_BLK

[@TKCL]

So far only a few minor chips in the floor powder coat. It's held up very well.

[@-2u2]

I saw the video was a year old and I was going to ask you how it is doing a year latter. Then I saw this post. Thank you for the information - very thorough.

[@josebeltran9414]

Iron bull owes you a 12 pack of beer, man. im in the market for a dump trailer and this video explains very clearly the differences between cheap trailers and well built. Thanks again.

[@TKCL]

Glad it helped

[@cfrith8963]

This is by far the best trailer video I have ever seen and has convinced me on the trailer that I need!

[@TKCL]

Thank you for watching

[@mfont608]

I have the 10ft version of this. That little "safety stand" is used when you store your trailer outside. You lift the trailer up enough to clear it, then lower it back onto it making sure it fits into the hole for it. It keeps the water and anything else from staying in the trailer when not in use. I would absolutely use it as a safety also when working on it.

[@TKCL]

Thank you for the feedback

[@EphbaumAZ]

This f*cking guy. I was thinking about that. It was bugging me. Thanks for making me feel like an idiot. What makes it worse is, I have a dump truck. I'm gonna go lay down. lol

[@matthewpeterson3329]

Awesome trailer. I have cycled through several different types over the decades, as my economics allowed me to upgrade, and this has all the features I now require in a dump trailer. One note, and you may already know this but it bears repeating for others watching... Whatever the capacity of the ram, it is based on an even load across the entire floor of the trailer, with significant weight behind and near the fulcrum as counterweight to help the tip. So 10k pounds pushed to the front will exceed the capacity of the ram, and you made mention of this. However, with the capacity and different materials in mind, it is easy to overload this trailer, as 10k of sand may only fill that trailer up to about 1/2 full when the material is leveled. This is especially important if you are in a region that sells material by the yard rather than by the ton. Many landscape material yards have a half yard or one yard bucket on their loader, and they sell it by the yard or scoop if they don't have scales. SO... test your weights before going whole hog filling that thing to the gunnels. 4 yards of wet sand may get you to 10k and still leave the trailer looking kinda empty, and this is where mistakes are made. I learned to use bright yellow paint and made lines at various depths on the inside walls saying sand, gravel, 3" to 8" rock, etc, so that I knew at a glance what volume would not exceed the weight. This was not for me, but for less concerned employees who kept blowing out the seals on the rams. Also, when dumping, make sure the grade is as level as possible and your tires are properly inflated. This seems obvious, and you might think a 14' trailer is too short to roll over, but I have watched it happen. Not to mention the twisting stress it puts on the entire trailer. Anyway, I hope my mistakes will be helpful to others. Thanks for another great video!

[@TKCL]

Good information, thanks.

[@Bornagain-jp2yk]

Very informative comments!! Especially how little volume of certain materials will get you over the 10000 # payload!!

[@TheSpud1129]

Andrew - I'm a dump trailer engineer with 20 years of experience. I've designed MANY different utility dump trailers for many major companies. Yes, the bar on the front is the safety stop, you use that if you need to access the telescoping cylinder so that the dump bed won't crush you. It's a safety feature that's required by law. Also, the style of pump that you have is called a "power up/gravity down" style, it basically uses hydraulic power to lift, but "dumps" the fluid back to the pump without the use of hydraulics. I'll email you in a bit. Have some things to tell you about your trailer. Really enjoy your content. Keep up the good work!

[@TKCL]

Thank you for watching and the information.

[@kd7tda]

I'm thinking about getting a dump trailer. Do you have any recommendations based on your experience designing them? Would greatly appreciate any info you can share! Thanks!

[@mkestamper]

Just wanted to show my appreciation, your video saved me a ton of money. I’m heading up to Lewisburg Tennessee to pick up my Ironbull dump trailer next week. Not sure if I ever would have found there products with out this video. I looked at several other brands, alot more expensive, and no where near the quality as the Ironbull! Thanks again.

[@TKCL]

Thank you so much for the support. I was honest in my review. Like you I've been looking at everything. No one builds this quality of a trailer for this price in my area. Hope you love yours as much as I love mine.

[@mkestamper]

@@TKCL I ended up getting a 16’ with 2’ sides. I basically have the same truck as yours, mine is 2wd. I am looking forward to see how well the ole Dmax does with this trailer. Plan on using mine hauling gravel for my driveway maintenance and catching up from lack of. It will be a learning curve of figuring out how to not overload the trailer and exceeding truck towing specs. Thanks again for your review. Like I said, it definitely saved me some money.

[@TKCL]

Glad the video helped.

[@mkestamper]

@@TKCL I picked up trailer today, man it is a awesome trailer. So, on my 4 hr trip back, I got to thinking about if there’s some sort of master switch in the pump wiring. I am a pack rat. In time, I will have my battery box full of all sorts of stuff. My fear is, remote either getting smashed and shorting out or something falling on it while cruising down the interstate and engaging the pump. That would be the makings of a bad day. So either, unplugging the remote each time or maybe installing a battery disconnect switch wouldn’t be a bad idea. Thought I’d share this with you. Might be good content in a video…..

[@TKCL]

Battery disconnect is a quick solution, install a breaker or boat battery cut off switch.

[@jasoncardoza6375]

That post is for when you clean it and store the trailer so water doesn’t accumulate in it and rust out 👍

[@compass504]

That's correct..

[@dougdavis4439]

Love the 3 way tailgate and overall robustness of it, Andrew. I'm very excited for you, man! It's a great looking new tool for the property!

[@TKCL]

I'm super excited about it myself, going to make work easier.

[@leedavis5306]

Way to go! It is built.very well. I've had my 16' gooseneck with scissor lift for a long time. I've seen the front cylinder but never watched a review. The most impressive thing for me was the dump down feature. I ordered mine with power up/down. That is when the pump runs it up and powers it down. I've never seen a dump come down that fast. With that alone, when up and down factored together it is fast! Love and proud for you Sir. Take care and have fun!

[@TKCL]

Thank you very much! I wanted gravity down to help extend the life of the battery too.

[@dasmaus]

I've had my 7x14 gatormade gooseneck for 10 years... Absolutely love it... Definitely add a solar trickle charger as it will inevitably spend most of its time sitting around

[@TKCL]

Agreed, I'm going to get one.

[@nelkinz3152]

Thanks for info.

[@costcontrolaccounting4613]

Loved your attention to detail and must comment that you don't go wrong buying quality that will last and do more than you need right now.

[@TKCL]

Agreed

[@bouncehouseoftampatampabou8560]

Well this video just confirmed the trailer I’m buying on Monday ! Thank You for the awesome video and details

[@TKCL]

I still love this trailer a year later, zero issues. So many have bought from Trailer Country after seeing this video. If you go to the one in Land O Lakes please tell them you seen it on my channel. They are great people, I just bought my second trailer from them. Take care!

[@JasonPike-lh3yf]

Just to let you know the bar that is under the trailer located in the right front is for when you want to let the dump sit for a long time, you should elevate the dump so that the piston does not freeze as well as to keep the hinges from rusting.

[@TKCL]

Thanks

[@johanlannek6274]

Awesome review Sir! Thank you so much for taking the time to do this!

[@TKCL]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@jeremiahs45]

Congratulations Andrew. Glad you were able to get your dump trailer. Now I really want one bad

[@TKCL]

Thank you, I love it!

[@rongray4847]

Good for you Andrew you have been wanting a dump trailer for a long time. I am glad you finally got one. It dose look like a very well built trailer. I know you research your stuff pretty good. Congrats Sir!! 👍👍❤️❤️🇨🇦

[@TKCL]

Thank you very much!

[@staybusybuilding2910]

Great review on the trailer. I purchased the 6x10 last year in California and paid the same price you did for your 14’. I love how it’s built and believe it’s well worth the extra bucks.

[@TKCL]

I feel like I got a great deal.

[@All_Info_Blog]

Great video! I just bought the Iron Bull 5x10 dump trailer. I didn't need one as big as yours but i love it. The tie downs, hitch, and steel used is an awesome addition. I paid right at $4200 on 23 Oct 2024. The only difference is i have the under mount piston and my gate is a 4ft high dual purpose for driving something into the trailer or unhindge the bottom to spread whatever I have. (Hope that made sense) 🙏

[@TKCL]

I want a smaller one like that myself.

[@iwantosavemoney]

Am looking at a 8’x16’ deck over dump but I like the 3 way gate for sure that’s one sexy trailer

[@gregwillett2363]

Thanks for taking the time to make this video!

[@TKCL]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@justinmacksey6464]

Great, Great video. Thank you. Also If I'm not mistaken that hollow "safety pole" that sticks up. I'm pretty sure you lower your EMPTY trailer down onto it when not in use to let the rain run off and keeps the stress off the cylinder.

[@TKCL]

You are correct

[@kmilton1593]

Lovely looking trailer; the green is real sharp. Hydraulic speed is just right; would not want it faster. (i would have tried for even higher ply tires). Good luck, Bud.

[@TKCL]

I will definitely replace with higher ply when these wear out. It's been a workhorse.

[@richroberts9714]

Excellent trailer and you got a great deal on the price! One of my pro tips is to put two coats of wax on the trailer deck and side to help everything slide out, plus weather protection... Can't wait to see all the work you will do with it!!!

[@TKCL]

Thank you very much

[@homesculptor]

I just got one. Bought it sight unseen, it's an Iron Bull, they look so good. I've been putting off two long. With an excavator and grader, I use my diamond c, but now I can move some dirt and gravel around. I'm really excited about this, I'm getting older and achey, but this new purchase got my entrepreneur spirit going again. I didn't think I could afford one. I signed a 32 grand contract the other day, and that pushed me over the edge and increased my quaily. I knew I'd tear that other one up that had the thinner guage

[@79mini]

I got one of the "lesser" dump trailers you mentioned. It puts in work everything from 5 yards of mulch, 2tons of rock, or hauling my tractor. Does more then fine doing it for my landscape business. Your gonna have that tank forever lol Congratulations on your purchase!

[@TKCL]

Thank you

[@anthonyc993]

Built a lot like my load trail. I looked at iron bull and they are a very well built trailer.

[@TKCL]

I love mine!

[@radmilamiljanic5977]

Thank God you got a good trailer for relatively affordable price! I can see you upgrading it and putting a rubber mat before dumping stones onto that nice shiny surface:)))) Now you can go help Cash with all the trees that fell and need moving:)

[@TKCL]

I'll probably put plywood in it to keep from scratching it 🤣

[@larrbethea8432]

A couple years ago I was looking at dump trailers to like your video and Ironbull, I saw dump trailers with weaker walls & floors, seen two dips where the tractor clearly rolled on. Not Ironbull they designed a double frame with 7 gauge floor to eliminate the two sags. I bought the same dump trailer you have, got the legs for loading tractor. The battery is ok but bought two AGM 12volt Batteries and run in parallel for lots of battery power, even quicker hydraulics. Using solar recharger or plug in when available. My first load was construction debris, old naily deck boards, the tilt takes the trash, firewood, sand, whatever to the ground, then I drive 15 feet to clear, lower dump and close gates. Had 5 tons of gravel at the quarry dropped into trailer no problem. Had to clear branches to raise and spread gravel, invest in a pole saw. :) My Church had a Spring Cleaning and the dump trailer was used reducing trips to dump to just ONE. Virginia registers dump trailers but no special lic or permit staying under 26,001lbs. I've dropped 10-12 foot oak logs after about a year with the dump trailer there is some scratches on the floor, that's it, not holes or split welds, it's over built, powder coat is durable and meant to last!

[@TKCL]

They make a great product

[@oscarwilson8707]

Nice video 👍 I have the same trailer and I’ve put it to the test. It’s exceeded my expectations. Great trailer. Well built.

[@TKCL]

Great to hear

[@davidseale6104]

I bought a 7x16 Norstar last summer. It is awesome. I saw the frame as soon as I pulled into the lot was the size of the frame rails!!! I don't have tailgate. I have the barn doors!!

[@TKCL]

They seem well built

[@PJ-uv9fr]

You know I liked the telescopic hoist on this, but I really love the 3-way tailgate too! That's almost like gettin 2 ft. for free for certain hauling instances like you said. It has some extra goodies that are REALLY nice too! A wireless remote will definitely be worth it especially for topping your driveway once you get your spreader chains set up right. I'm impressed and you made an awesome deal in my book. A proud purchase 👍👍👍💜💜💜💜 (Oh...and you'll never be stuck with a hoisted bed if your battery goes dead LOL!)

[@TKCL]

All good points

[@TheMikeyG101]

Congrats Andrew, I know you will put it to good use.

[@TKCL]

Thank you!

[@dptp9lf]

I like how it sits high so material doesn't back up as quick behind the trailer...

[@TKCL]

I like that too, plus sitting up higher allows for a more extreme dump angle.

[@jakemustian99]

You are exactly correct. That is a safety device to keep the box from crushing you while under the trailer

[@TKCL]

Good to know, glad they included that.

[@jair8808]

Nice! I’m getting the 12 ft long one this coming weekend but with the scissor lift. Thanks for the review.

Thank you

[@terrymclaughlin407]

I think you should consider doing a video on trailer hitches and especially tounge weight rating. A heavy load needs the proper hitch . Great iron bull review!

Agreed, I've been eyeballing some weight hitches.

[@nwflboy007powell8]

I had a 8' x 14' double axle electric brakes on both axles 14,000 lb regular hauling trailer from Ion in Texas. It can haul your tractor, lumber, bricks, atv's, utv's or a car. It has a drive on drop down ramp to drive on that will fold in half to help you see better behind you. I ordered a spare tire rack. It was $2156.00 took about 3 weeks before it was shipped . It came with 3 x 12 pressure treated floor that I coated with bedliner on both sides. I ordered it with a bulldog 20,000 lb tongue that you can use ball, pintle, etc.

[@nwflboy007powell8]

Of course, that was in 2019, but Ion makes great heavy duty trailers - just not dump beds. I agree there are some cheap crappy trailers out there that aren't very well thought out. Ion is one of the few that are quality built at a fair price. I had to go to Semmes , Alabama to order mine cross bracing is 16" on center and rails are 2 x6 like your's. With a few upgrades to your truck you would be able to haul more weight - just not as much as my Tundra. Remember, 4x4 takes away from towing capacity. But I regularly haul 14,000 lbs and you hardly now it's even there.

[@TKCL]

Timing makes a huge difference, my dad's equipment trailer was a little over $2,000 many years ago. Now that same trailer is 5 to 6,000.

[@nwflboy007powell8]

Well, you are correct. I bought the Ion when they were just beginning to be recognized, likewise for my adjustable trailer hitch for my truck which was just starting out in Texas. It's a 2 way with multiple level adjustments and I keep the most common ball sizes on it which comes with the hitch. They are held by locks and pins and you can order odd sizes and types. I paid only $150 for it and it's awesome. But steel prices are falling once again. Most people don't shop around, examine the pros and cons of each manufacturer or try to get the best bang for their buck - I know you , like me do. And I appreciate all that you and Tiffany do for so many. I'm in the beginning stages of blueberry season on my farm and my small garden. I have 18 varieties of blueberries and 3 have already came in and out. I planted 2 black mulberry trees, which are like 3" long black berries and some elderberries. Also added some citrus, plums and peaches. I already have wild persimmons - which can be a good thing or a bad thing. If you pick them too early they'll turn your mouth inside out, if you pick them when they ripe they are delicious. Have a great one!

Nice trailer. Really nice when the guy that purchased it loads it. Cause you get some newbie with a tractor rams that cylinder those are more expensive to repair. I like it though!

[@chuckspencer5296]

Ok Andrew... I think the short chain for the tailgate feature is done on purpose... That chain may stretch, and if not, it will help to keep whatever you are carrying leaning into the trailer, instead of leaning out... Just my 2¢ looking at how close that it is...

[@TKCL]

Time will tell, I'll get a second set of chains just in case.

[@Natural-Causes]

I agree, really liking that design with many features.

[@TKCL]

I'm still loving it after many months of use.

[@michaelbaumgardner9493]

Good afternoon. 5/16 @ 4700 work load to support the gates when in tailgate setup but I'd think maybe about 3/8 for 6600 work load. Hear me out, the tractor's frontend is on the gate, having a bit more strength of work load is cheaper than replacing a piece of equipment. Also just like the rear corner supports, maybe have something to support the gate corners at load/unloading to possibly keep the gates from bowing/ sagging. Expanded metal/mesh could be welded in the bottom you'd have a place for extra tools/straps, chains,binders. Food for thought. Have a good day everybody.

[@TKCL]

Keep in mind you don't drive on that tailgate when in the down position, the ramps only work in barn door mode. I'd never put equipment on the tailgate. Maybe at the most I'll rest a 800lb grapple on it.

[@michaelbaumgardner9493]

Thank you.

[@richardford1031]

Very informative video, thank you. I am buying the Ironbull for sure.

Good choice in my opinion. I just bought my second one. I highly recommend Trailer Country. Mention you heard about them on our channel for a discount. So many people watched this video and called them, they started offering that.

[@hairtrigger903]

The reason the chains are short is because you don't want to obscure the lights below. Something to keep in mind.

[@TKCL]

Ahhhh

[@KipOConnell]

@@TKCL I don't think so. I believe they are configured that way so that the tailgate can only swing up as the bed rises and not risk trying to tuck under or crushing, even if the ground slopes down and away at the tail of the trailer.

[@ClearTheDeck]

If that was a concern, you could just snake some bungee cord thru the chains.

[@THOMASTURNER-c5l]

Hi buddy 12 x6 Delco 10,000 pounder it has the spread gate it has the tailgate and has barn doors very well built trailer have no regrets about it but I did borrow my buddy's iron bowl it is a 14x7 and I wished I had bought them an iron pole just cuz of the 14 ft by 7 but the Delco was very well built it is been outstanding trailer have ran it 3 years use it for everything and can haul equipment on it as well but I do like my car trailer and it's a very well-built trailer it's a Delco rock crawler edition with the hard fenders 10,000 pounder 18 footer

Sounds like you have a great setup!

[@JOHNMARVICH]

Hey Bubba, the safety post in the corner is that and more, it is a safe storage post so that you do not collect water in the bed when it is not in use. A smart buyer will take the trailer in and have a Rhino liner coating sprayed on. the interior side walls and bed. It will extend the bed life 100% or more. Thanks for the Video , Well done!!

[@benjaminbrack2588]

Dump trailers need smooth bottoms, so that material can slide out. Spray it with rhino liner might as well line the whole thing with bubble gum.

[@MatthewLenardson]

I like the tailgate but I have two dumps one is a diamond C with a 16 same piston but not the same door. That one sits lower which is great for loading equipment not dumping at a land fill. The other is a Packard trailer dual piston so that scares me for buckling but it sits higher for dumping. The diamond is a 16 with a cage style second wall the first I took some roof sheeting from a job so it keeps roof debris inside but it’s shorter for light demo loads the diamond c has a second wall made with expanded steel that one does not work well with keeping roofing material and general debris inside. But great video. Btw that pipe does help with maintenance and inspection but it’s mostly for servicing the piston or pistons.

You might see if there is a fall control so that if you have to let the box down because of stuck load, it will fall a a set rate. Dropping a loaded box can induce great shock load.

In my 2001 Chevy in the fuse box under the hood all i had to do was in stall a fuse that was missing in one of the slots and the battery on the dump trailer would charge from the alternator on the truck. I never charged to battery or any solar . never had a dead battery, i ask the guy that sold the trailer to me and he told me about the fuse box, not sure about any new pickups but mine worked great

[@TKCL]

Sadly my harness was cut in the rear and someone stole the plug end and harness. I have wired it in for 4 and 5 way connections. I need to figure out the rest of the wiring for all of it.

[@tractorsredneckfun8000]

I have seen on commercial dump trucks and trailers, is adding a poly liner to the bed. It still provides a slick surface compared to a bed-liner.

[@TKCL]

Won't that come out when dumping?

[@tractorsredneckfun8000]

Kind of like a peel and stick liner. I haven’t seen it used on smaller dump trailers. It is common on bigger trucks to protect the bed and make the floor slick. If you look up dump trailer liners it is easy to find.

Congratulations Andrew! I know you will get some great use out of that trailer.

[@TKCL]

I sure will! Thanks

[@jhonp1003]

Nice video 👍 Question: Is that two hitch heavy enough to hold on to a heavyload? Wouldn't a pintle hold better?

[@TKCL]

Yes, my new truck and hitch combo is rated much higher than this can carry. No need for pintle until you get really high GVWR

[@danpipkin6465]

Great job Kelly! I'd like to buy one and get into the business! I just wish I knew how! Great job!

[@auburnaviator6167]

WoooHoooo, congratulations on the new dump trailer. Great job getting a well known solid built trailer instead of a cheapy. I know the initial upfront cost hurts but the long term dependability/reliability of a quality unit will pay dividends over time!

[@TKCL]

Agreed!

[@robertcribb3859]

Great price for everything that you got WOW and you'll love that front lift plus the Dexter axles I know the man that owns that company

[@TKCL]

Thank you, I think it's a lot of trailer for the money.

[@robertcribb3859]

@@TKCL I'd say that was an exceptional deal Andrew it's amazing what an old fart like me learns from you and I've known Rick Dexter for a number of years he's a great guy probably his family owns the Axle company now

[@humbleredneck8816]

That's not a work trailer, that's a Show Trailer! Great buy! Congrats!

[@TKCL]

She is pretty!

[@hrlee2381]

Congratulations on your new trailer. Certainly going to make your many jobs easier.

[@TKCL]

Thank you so very much for your support and making it possible.

[@rubenmar9596]

Thats a great price. I’m looking to get a gooseneck 7’x16’ with 4’ wall, 10ga, scissor lift, 2-7k axels, farm doors, ramps no extra 19.5 k in Deep South Texas

[@TKCL]

The trailer has been such a blessing and it's so well built. I've been running it every day since the hurricane hit us here in florida.

[@joshcox8748]

Great video. I'd like to find one like that closer to the Carolinas.

[@TKCL]

This company has a dealership in Georgia.

[@milliesmith7279]

Fantastic

[@MichaelHelton-g5m]

What is the part number for the Norstar Wireless Remote Control that Norstar sent you that you installed on your Iron Bull in the other video. I want to get the exact same one for mine.

[@TKCL]

This is the only place I could find what appears to be my exact model parts.nationwidetrailers.com/products/kti-wireless-remote?variant=29189487570

[@MichaelHelton-g5m]

Thanks@@TKCL

[@christineramsey138]

What a great, comprehensive video! THANK YOU!!! This model is exactly what we've been looking for! What is the Model # for the trailer? I'm in Washington State, and I can't find it on the Norstar website. The most similar model I could find was the DXB14, but it doesn't have the 3-way rear gate with spreader function that would be perfect for our property. I found it on the Trailer Country Inc website, but they don't list the Model # and they aren't located anywhere near us. I would really appreciate your help so we could track it down in our area!!

[@TKCL]

I believe it's called the DTB8314072-24. Glad you found it useful.

[@jandoinc]

Thanks for all the info. I have been contemplating and you helped me move forward.

[@TKCL]

I still love this trailer, I am very happy with my purchase.

[@stephensmith6003]

Nice trailer if looking at it when fully up ...its really close to 45 ° ...Thats pretty impressive

[@TKCL]

It goes higher than I was expecting.

[@daveseaver6337]

Good video and don’t mean to be a downer. In. My area there are a few dealers that carry those trailer. Yes build well but prep and paint are the worst every one I know that has one about 10. In a year the paint will start to fall right off. I wash and keep all my stuff clean. Complete rust bucket in 4 years fenders falling right off massive metal just bubbling any falling off the sides. And all the others look the same even only weekend use. Although still dumps fine.

[@TKCL]

Mine is seeing a lot of heavy use over the last year and still in excellent condition. I'm very pleased with my purchase. These are powder coated not painted.

[@LatitudeSky]

One thing I know about Norstar is that Matt at Diesel Creek and Chris Letsdig18 both run Norstar service truck bodies. That seems like a good indicator to me.

[@TKCL]

Good to know, they are professionals for sure.

[@gamemaster7650]

That's a beautiful trailer. Congratulations

[@TKCL]

Thank you very much

[@ryanzynda5114]

Awesome video. That will really come in handy for your property. 🤠

[@TKCL]

Yes it will!

[@jniks55]

Did you look at DXB Norstar? Debating between the iron bull dwb and dxb. The dxb has the telescopic hoist which i believe I will like more but the bull has a 7 gauge steel floor and the dxb floor has 10 gauge steel

[@TKCL]

My dealer only offered the Norstar with a basic barn door tailgate. I definitely wanted the 3 way gate.

[@TKCL]

I'd say go thicker and the telescoping lift. Everyone I knows loves the telescoping lift.

[@jniks55]

So go thinner 10 gauge and telescopic. I only really need the barn door. Thank you for the response :)

[@jniks55]

Which model is this iron bull?

[@TKCL]

The DTB8314072-24

[@Flyboijay813_]

this was a vary good video. thank you so much my guy.

[@TKCL]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@spikeman68]

depending on what you haul,we get alot of customers who will rhino line the beds,makes them last a long time,(BWISE,BRIMAR TRAILERS),keep your tire pressures up,grease two,three times a year,wash/rinse when you can,all helps in the maintenance,my two cents..and never,ever overload,trailer manufactors are very picky/*itchy about that
