    Do you know any capacity ratios for the HEMAT trailer? It's rated for 11 yon capacity in cargo, but Do you know if at a very slow speed, can it carry more weight?

    5 ton won't build air to trailer

    5 ton won't build air to trailer

    The trailer requires minimum of 100psi to free the parking axel. I changed the glad hands to quick connects. The moment I open the valves , the pressure falls to 60. It falls lower if the truck idles. Increased rpm to 1000 and the air pressure maxes out at 60 in both primary and secondary.
