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.

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.

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

Great looking trailer Andrew, definitely very well specked. Best of luck with your new trailer 👍

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!

Nice!!! Congratulations. Can't wait to see it in action.

Thanks for taking the time to make this video!

That is awesome trailer. Your going to get some uses out of it congratulations on getting one you sure deserve it.

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

I agree, really liking that design with many features.

Sweet! Congrats. Nice looking trailer I like the barn doors with the hooks on the sides to hold those doors open. 👍💞

Andrew, i like it!!! Glad you went with the single vertical lift cylinder.

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

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

Wow.... my dream trailer is finally in the market now. Thanks for the video.

Extra money well spent Andrew. Seems you picked a great one. Cant wait to see all the projects you can get done with it.

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!! 👍👍❤️❤️🇨🇦

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

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!

YaY you got a dump trailer!!! That will definitely help around there. Happy for you. Work smarter not harder right!?!? I love watching your channel grow and all the amazing things you are accomplishing in your life and with your land. Happy for you for real.

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

Thanks for this great video, I just picked up the exact same trailer from trailer world in Fitzgerald Ga. , on Wednesday of last week, I love it, great value and includes add ons for the money

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

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

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

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!)

Fantastic

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

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

Good luck with the new tool!Great review, i am looking at dump trailers or dump trucks for our farm and business use as well .You got a great deal. I looked at the same brand and model and it was 1.5k more than you payed.

I think that safety tube in the front is for holding a fishing pole. ;) Looks like an awesome Trailer, I’m glad you finally got one

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.

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

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

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.

That's a beautiful trailer. Congratulations

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!

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!

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

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!!!

hi there real nice trailer , the support rod that sticks up maybe for the the deck to rest on when not in use so no water will build up in the bed . nice john

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.

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

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:)

Great video. Thanks 🙏. I’m shopping for a dump trailer.

Andrew, Nice trailer very good price for the quality of your trailer. Catch ya later on the live. I didn’t see your supervisor watching you.

Congratulations. I know you've been looking for a long time. I'm extremely proud of my Sure Trac dump trailer. I will say other than mine being 16ft yours looks to be built better than mine.

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

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

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!

Congratulations on your new addition to your land sir. 👏

Nice toy! Enjoy!

Hi, Andrew! I’m doing my Hallelujah Happy Dance up here in North Carolina. You deserved a dump trailer a long time ago. See you in about 40 minutes.

Very nice dump trailer. I also been looking for a trailer for a couple years.

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!

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!!

I just purchased a 7x14 Norstar last week from Trailer World in Ozark, Alabama. $9495 plus a $175 spare tire and wheel. I had a very hard time choosing between your model and mine. You would put mine in your cheaper category as it does not have a spreader gate, one piece heavy floor ect. However what sold me was the 8” I-beam construction. Both are excellent made trailers. I enjoyed your video. Very informative.

Great video and that’s a really nice trailer!!!

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.

Congratulations good buy.

That'll come in handy for so many things.

Thats a really nice trailer👍

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.

Looks top notch :-)

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

Cool, you finally bought one

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!

Fantastic video!!!

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

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

Awesome

Congratulations. Money well spent.

Good show sir.

Congratulations

Sweet trailer 👍

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.

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

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!!

Nice video.

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

Congratulations on the trailer. Yes, that is a safety pole for you to work underneath the dump trailer.

Awesome. I like it. :)

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...

I'm sold

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

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.

I really like the ironbull, but that maxxed d be calling my name 🤣

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!!

COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is crazy, my 2018 Sure Trac was $6000 and the same one I bought yesterday is $10,000

Really Cool. Sounds like an Awesome buy to me. That extra 2300.00 dollars was definitely worth it.

Great video Andrew, but it would have been interesting if you would have tested the what you think are safety uprights, maybe next time 👍

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.

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!

That's the same brand that Cody from WranglerStar has been using for a while he loves it too.👍

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

If you put pins in where the hitch coupler is you can remove the coupler as a anti theft deterrent also and it’s just pulling two pins just throw a couple if locks the the middle holes

Thats a dang good price!!

🔥🔥🔥

That unit looks like it could take a slide in slide off hunting shelter (up here in canada we use them for ice fishing too) those units in that size often have a little cabin in them up here for a true "every use" trailer"
