Indeed, this manufacturer has a long-standing reputation for producing high-quality trailers that cater to a variety of needs. Let’s take a look at some of the most popular PJ Trailers for sale at our Illinois dealership!

Flatbed Trailers

PJ Trailers offers flatbed trailers with impressive features that make them stand out from the competition. Their I-beam goosenecks, which come standard on every PJ gooseneck, are stronger and more durable than the commonly used c-channel necks. Lifetime LED lights are also included as a standard feature on every trailer, offering bright lighting and energy efficiency. Their flatbed trailers are equipped with rub rails with stake pockets and pipe spools on 12″ centers, providing numerous tie-down points and increased strength. PJ Trailers also uses 3″ channel cross-members on 16″ centers for increased deck strength and tightly spaced cross-members. Additionally, the trailers have a 6″ x 2″ tube outside frame for fully enclosed wiring and lighting protection. Underframe bridging and 21″ wide flip-over ramps add extra strength and ease of use. Finally, PJ Goosenecks come standard with a front locking toolbox made of steel diamond plate, providing ample storage space for tools and equipment.

Utility Trailers

They also offer a wide selection of utility trailers, each designed for optimal performance and built to last. One of the standout features of PJ Trailers’ utility trailers is the patent-pending Ready Rail® system. This innovative rail system allows users to easily customize their trailer with bolt-on accessories to meet their specific needs. Whether you need to haul ATVs, lawnmowers, or any other type of cargo, Ready Rail® can be configured to accommodate your needs. This unique feature is only available on PJ Trailers, making them the go-to choice for those looking for a versatile and customizable utility trailer. See our inventory of PJ Trailers for sale.

Dump Trailers

Their dump trailers are built with durability and performance in mind. The heavy-duty 10-gauge smooth plate sides and floors make these trailers stand out from others on the market, preventing warping and deformation of the bed. With over 40 features and benefits, including two-way gates as a standard feature, these trailers are designed to make your job easier. The two-way barn door and spreader gate provide versatility when loading and unloading materials. Additionally, all PJ dump trailers over 14,000 lbs. include a scissor hoist as a standard feature, ensuring more lifting power than single or twin hydraulic cylinders. The scissor design is also more stable when raising and lowering uneven or shifting loads. Trust PJ Trailers to provide you with a high-quality and reliable dump trailer that can handle any job.

Tilt Trailers

PJ tilt trailers are designed with a focus on durability and efficiency. The car hauler tilt tails have a unique “knife-edge” design that lays flush to the ground, eliminating the need for the driver to drive over a bump when loading equipment with small wheels, winching vehicles onto the deck, or in wet/icy conditions. The cross-members on these trailers are made with 3″ channel spacing, which is closer than most other manufacturers, providing increased deck strength. Additionally, PJ Trailers use radial tires on their tilt trailers, which offer superior fuel economy, less vibration, a softer ride, and longer life due to less heat being generated. These features make PJ tilt trailers a reliable and efficient option for those looking to transport heavy equipment.
