Triton Lite capacity?

[MTRHEAD]

Does anyone know the official capacity of this Triton Lite trailer? There is no sticker showing the GVW either only the safety sticker.

I saw that online for the newer ones. I don’t think that is my model (?) My width is only appx 92”. Maybe it’s same? I don’t know and Triton wasn’t much help since my trailer doesn’t have the sticker

I would say the axles are the same, so the capacity should be pretty close. If that one is showing 2900 lbs, I would keep it below 2500 to be safe.

I’m toying with the idea of putting my 22’ in the center and 93’ and 14’ on each side. That’s about 1500 fully loaded with extra gas tanks

Can look at Axle Diameter and Wheel Bolt Number to estimate Trailer Capacity since the Axle and Wheel Capacities must not be exceeded.

Note that an Aluminum Trailer with same Axle and Wheels as a Steel Trailer can carry a higher payload due to the Frame weighing less.

1.75” axle. 5 lug

Limiting factor might be tires.

I am also in process of this on my triton lite. The axle is rated approx 1500lbs.

As far as info. Their latest line of triton wave trailers is the closest resemblance to the previous lite or WCII setup. Same overall length and width and weight. I found an online brochure the other day and compared it to my triton lite.

I know where one of those is sitting in a junk pile I tried to buy it , he wouldn't sell it.

I have two of the Karavan Aluminum trailers here.

Yeah im trying to figure out if I can mount 2 blasters and a 99 GP800 on my Triton with the torsion axle. 1 blaster may fit on the front if I can figure out how to mount bunks.

 

[WFO Speedracer]

I don't see any of those torsion axles for a Triton trailer rated at less than 2000lbs

 

[Batteryman]

yeah looks like about 2300 pounds. Even when adding fuel I should be well under that.

320 blaster 1 + 320 blaster 2 + 500 GP800 = 1,140 pounds

 

[WFO Speedracer]

It's 2335 minus the weight of the trailer whatever that is.

If your online. Asking if your trailer can handle the load. It might be able to. But you arent

Picture looks like your traielr

 

[Jcary85]

I’m saying 1300 carrying capacity unless it has some upgraded options.

 

[Sparkplug]

It can handle it. I said so and so did a bunch of internet guys. Trust us!! As if your life depends on it.

Fwiw. When you was your trailer up and kill a bus full of nuns. Insurance and the law isn't gonna care what xh2o said.
