The heavy-gauge steel utility box is 53" long, 48" wide, and 19" deep, giving it a class-leading 21 cu. ft. (0.8 cu yd) capacity. The box is powder coated for added protection. The base frame features full length 2.75" X 1.5” solid steel L rails, supporting front and rear CNC-bent structural steel ribs that extend the box's strength to the top deck. When in the lowered position, the box is supported by a rubber bumper mounted on the chassis, effectively reducing vibration and minimizing noise when towing.

The full box underframe is engineered to withstand the stresses of hauling and dumping 1000 lb. (454 kg) loads. The underframe's L-rail construction ensures the box has optimal strength and stability, providing a sturdy, reliable connection between the box and chassis.

In addition to the optional winch assembly that helps raise the dump box, the hinge point of the box is split 75% front and 25% rear, helping offset the load. This simple design feature will show its benefits every time you unload your trailer, helping balance the load weight and assist in easier dumping.

The chassis features a thick wall 2" (50 mm) square tube that runs back to the axles, where it is secured to the axle crossbeam with a laminated heavy-gauge plate design. The axle crossbeam also carries 1/4" solid steel pivot brackets for the utility box, ensuring the strength needed to manage a 1000 lb. (454 kg) payload.

The front and rear tailgates of the Pathlander™ are removable, making it easy to load and balance longer items. The oversized top hinge points eliminate the need to remove the tailgates when dumping loose materials like gravel, topsoil, or yard waste. The tailgates are designed to stay locked with stainless steel draw latches, and the latches are mounted high on the box to ensure they're both well protected and easy to use.

The 2” (50 mm) ball coupler is rotatable 360 degrees. This decouples the trailer’s rotation from the tow vehicle’s rotation, so when you're off-road you don't have to worry about the tow vehicle or the trailer influencing each other. The tongue can also be flipped 180 degrees to accommodate the height of your tow vehicle, ensuring the Pathlander™ is as level as possible with your tow vehicle.

The onboard tongue support leg is adjustable and includes a locking pin to hold the leg in position when using the trailer, and when in storage.

The Pathlander™ rolls on two 23 x 11 multi-ply tires on 10” rims. The powder-coated rims include valve stem protectors and have packed tapered roller bearings with a Zerk fitting inside the rim for ease of maintenance.
