I be leave its 3900 not sure. I delivered two half cord loads and it handles it fine. Also a good yard of top soilDang,
Nice setup and nic looking truck.
What is the rated capacity of that trailer out of curiosity...? Maybe 3,000-4,000lbs?

maybe, it depends on a lot of things. lolI’ll be right over to borrow it! You’re a good sharer right?? Great score!
I live on top of a hill, so the best place for me to split is on the court in front of my house. I bought a Harbor Freight motor cycle lift. If I don't need the trailer I leave the wood on it so it doesn't make everything look messy. The lift can roll right up to the load and I roll, push or pick the wood up onto the lift, roll it a few feet to the splitter, and raise it to beam height. If I need to use the trailer, I dump the wood on the court. Lower the lift to ground level, fill it up, push it over to the splitter, level with beam. On sale for $200, make a great accessory for the dump.
In MD it's against the law to pull the splitter behind the trailer. I had 3 trailer loads of brush that went to the dump before we loaded the wood on the trailer. Loaded the wood with the homeowners FEL. Then took it home to split. I just staged that pic so you can see the versatility of the lift. If you don't want to dump it on the ground, you can raise the lift so you can just slide the blocks off the top row, then lower it to the 2nd row, then down to the trailer deck level. If you have to get several loads home in one day, then you can dump them on the ground, and the lift will lower flat to the ground, roll a load on and pick it up to beam height. You have to remember some people are just home owners and don't have skidders and processors, and big loaders.Why not split it while loading the trailer?
Most fun is backing up next to Harry Homeowner at the dump. He's snatching and pulling on a criss crossed load of brush and you just push that button.
