Some info on lowbeds in BC Canada

Illegal in BC when I was looking into them a couple years ago. Kinda dumb, you figure the more you can have something on the deck the better

 

It’s all covered under an annual so it would be no problem across the western provinces. Only ####ty thing would be curfew on fridays and holidays.

 

If you ever run into the states, remember anything over 8'6" wide as far as a trailer goes is oversize everywhere, needing a permit empty or loaded, and can never be used to haul a legal load, (8'6" or under), it must be empty or have an overwidth load on the deck. That's why they are pretty much a Canadian thing,
but handy here, for sure..

 

Actually, 8'6" is legal, why would you think otherwise.? Check the regs, section 7.06, max width is 2.6 meters, legal with no permit, standard North American trailer width for many years.

 

You are exactly right, my mistake!

 

@not4hire weren't we discussing how much weight a tridrive needed on the steer axle a while ago? I guess this post cleared that up for us.

 

I don't remember (of course I don't remember what I had for breakfast), but there ya go... answered.
