i'm looking at a 14' trailer with the v front so i would guess it the v is another 2'. open trailer.

question is would 2 137 tracks and a 120 track fit on it. i was thinking 137 in front and the rear pushed over to the sides and the 120 track in the middle. otherwise my 2nd opt is to get 12' drive on and drive off.and just carry 2 sleds only.

I had a open 14 foot v front and would haul 3 136inch sleds. The back one has to be hauled backwards and slide up the middle. It is tight but I did this alot.

What you are NOT thinking about is that putting 3 sleds on a trailer designed for two exceeds the weight limits of the trailer. While the bearing sets would take the load, the tires won't, and will wear badly.

Do the math....

weight of all three sleds, plus the trailer, add up the load limits of the tires and you get the number you need. It is very likely over limit.

In a pinch you can do it, but as a steady pull, not a good idea.

i was looking at triton trailer and it can carry 2990. so with 3 sleds weight 17-1800 and the trailer 900 and the drive off ramp don't know.so with the ramp might be over.

the elite has a track system for tie down.do the freeze up in winter?for moving the tie down up or down the track.trailer will be keeped outside.

I have a Sledbed 14' plus the vee, 16' over all. I carry 2 renegades and a Edge Touring all the time, no issues. I load them as you said in your first post. The Renegades go on first, and the touring up the middle. The touring does over hang the resr of the trailer about 6". My trailer is a tandem axle.

I'm not a techno on trailers, but not sure I would haul 3 sleds on it unless it was a tandem axle and had surge brakes. My buddy's three sled trailer is a lot heavier duty than my 12 ft. v-front.

I did that a number of years ago on a 14 ft V front. 2 sled far forward as you can get, scoot the rear ends over and back one in the middle. Traveled from west of Minneapolis Mn to Iron wood Mich. It trailered OK, didn't sway much if any, BUT when you hit those nasty bigger bumps (and they weren't even that big) in the road the tires kissed the deck. Not real bad but there was evidence.
I wouldn't do it if you want to have the trailer for a long time cuz it probably wont' last a long time doing that. I'd go for a short tandem axel.
