    Default Motorized Trailer Dolly


    Hi All - looking to see if anyone has a recommendation on a motorized (electric preferably) trailer dolly. I have a Blackhawk 2170 on a tandem trailer and my everything doesn't work as good as when I was younger trying to man handle it! Looking at a TRAX T6000 and another one on saferwholesale.com. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks

    I am looking for one as well. My pontoon has to come in the door and then move over to the side. Being a tandem trailer it is hard to turn in the shop. I can push the tongue over and it will roll back unless I scotch the jack wheel. I know as the years add up, it ain't going to get an easier.

    Hi delta rat - I have a friend that stores his pontoon in a metal building that has one door. He also has other large items in there as well. He bought a set of caster carts that you see placed under the tires of a car to make it easy to maneuver the cars in tight spaces. It works well when used in a flat space and only takes a couple of minutes using a floor jack to get them under the tires. They are pretty reasonable as well. Hope this helps

    Check out eTrailer.com. They have a lot of great products. I buy from them all the time.

    My son used to use those on his single axle ski boat. Putting them under and taking them out regularly would be a pain. The older I get the easier I want things. It is a good idea though.

    I put a ball on my JD lawn tractor and used it.

    Also seen a lot of hitches on the front of a vehicle for this.

    That would certainly make it maneuverable

    I have a hitch on my ranger side by side. I can put trailers anywhere I want them with that.
