Powder River Trailer

[Ben H]

I have a Powder River Deluxe Chute and have been thinking about getting a trailer for it. My local dealer wants just over $900 without wheels. How hard would it be to make one? Does someone have one that they could take some close up pictures of?

Maybe try the Website? www.powderriver.com


the question is how good of a fabricator are you? Maybe you have a tilt trailer and you could Modify a wheel kit?


They aren't that complicated, but if you aren't a great welder and don't have the time, $900 can be kinda cheap......It is that way with my Plumbing projects anyways, LOL,

I can weld ok, I have friends that are much better. The only tilt trailer I have is a snowmobile trailer, that chute seems just too darn heavy. The Powder River site doesn't have a good enough photo for me to tell exactly how it works.

Please PM me your email address and I will send you some pictures of my PR trailer. I haven't learned how to do the photo thing on here yet.

I signed up (for free) with Photo Bucket. It's easy to upload the pics there. Under each one if gives you the code to copy and paste into the message that you post.

It is a yoke style that goes around and has hooks on the back. A sleeve with a"Hoop" slips over the back legs.....the hoks slip in and a pin locks it in. This leaves the tongue up in the air. The hook on the wench hooks into the hole at the base of the chutes front and you basically winch the tongue down onto the ball of your pickup....

Call 1-800-453-5318 and see if they have instructions they will fax you..I am not sure as a lot of things some companies rely on dealer training to demo a unit when sold,
