Description
Single Axle Hydraulic Tail Truck for Heavy Equipment
The Ledwell Hydraulic Tail Truck is built using the same proven tail design as our popular HydraTail Trailers. It’s well suited for loading and transporting low-clearance, long-wheelbase, and non-powered equipment.
Designed for demanding equipment transport applications, the Single Axle HydraTail Truck combines a low deck height, hydraulic tail, and hydraulic winch to help simplify loading and unloading in the field.
If your operation requires a non-CDL equipment transport solution, consider the FreedomTail Truck. It offers the same HydraTail loading concept in a non-CDL configuration, giving customers another option based on their hauling needs and licensing requirements.
