When it comes to moving oversized or heavy equipment, few trailers are as well-suited as an RGN (removable gooseneck) trailer. RGNs allow operators to detach the front section, making it easier to load equipment onto the deck from ground level.
At Kingpin Trailers, we work with farmers, contractors, heavy-equipment haulers, and specialized fleet operators who rely on RGNs for the safe, efficient transportation of their goods. We are the dealer for XL Specialized Trailers, which stand out for their reliability and tested performance.
How To Choose The Right RGN Trailer
Choosing the right trailer often comes down to matching its specifications to your intended use.
- Load Capacity: This is your top factor. Always match the trailer’s weight rating to the heaviest piece of equipment you plan to haul.
- Equipment Sizes: Think about the width, height, and overall footprint of your cargo.
- Trailer Width: Standard decks are around 8.5 feet wide, but we can build your trailer wider and equip it with pullouts or extensions for oversized loads.
- Add-ons: Common upgrades include flip axles, flip necks, and steel or aluminum pullouts.
Types of Removable (Detachable) Goose Necks
Mechanical: Mechanical goosenecks use front rollers and truck ramps to connect and disconnect. They are lighter than hydraulic goosenecks; however, they take longer to attach and detach.
Hydraulic: Hydraulic systems lift and lower the gooseneck. They use a series of hydraulic cylinders to safely and easily lower and lift the deck when the trailer is attached to the truck, making trailers versatile for various loading and unloading needs while maintaining a low center of gravity.
(Optional) Flipneck: This option increases the length of the front working deck to allow for single or tandem axle jeeps. Any flip neck would have built in king pin.
