Title: GVWR of Woodmizer LT50
Post by: jeepcj779 on February 08, 2020, 09:53:24 PM
Does anyone have a picture of or have the ability to take a picture of the weight information placard on a late model LT50 or similar? I am try to determine all the regulatory requirements I am going to have to meet when towing the mill for business. Correction, I am trying to legally avoid the regulatory requirements, or determine if it is possible. Thanks

   If anybody out there has an LT50 this information is on your title from WM. I just checked on my LT35 and it clearly showed a 3500 lb/1588 kg GVWR for the trailer there on the title.

Good luck finding a 15" load range E tire rated over 2850 for weight capacity.

I don't know what the specific tire size for the WM is, but...I know now. It is right on the placard. Anyway, I found a Goodyear Endurance ST225/75R15 $133.99 on Tirerack.com as the first result on Google searching "15 inch load range E trailer tire". There are seven 15" E range tires listed at etrailer.com. I am sure the Woodmizer dealer would happily sell me an OEM tire also.

E-tex, do the 50's have stud wheels or the mobile home style like on the 70's?
