Hauling a flatbed load on a step deck trailer means working around the drop between the decks. This aluminum load leveler bridge spans the trailer at 100-7/8 in wide and comes in heights from 16 in to 26 in, so you order the one that matches your drop.
The bridge does not hold itself down: it must be secured with chains and binders, which are not included. The 4x4 lumber for its brackets is not included either, and the stake pockets suit trailers that measure 97.25 in to 97.75 in across the inside of the pockets.
Key features
-
Matched to the drop. Each version fits trailers with a drop equal to its height, including Doonan, Featherlite and Transcraft step deck trailers.
-
Rotating offset post. Pull a pin and rotate the offset stake pocket post to gain half an inch of overall width adjustment for most drop deck trailers.
-
Welded dunnage brackets. Brackets welded to the bridge are sized to receive and secure a 4x4 piece of wood, not included.
-
20,000 lb rating. Maximum capacity is 20,000 lb on every height.
-
Quick to place. The bridge can be set up in minutes, and the lightweight aluminum makes it easy to handle.
-
Weight by height. The listed weight runs from 53 lb for the 16 in bridge to 69 lb for the 26 in bridge.
-
Aluminum bridge, USA-made. All six heights are aluminum and Made in the USA.
