Anyone haul an L47 with a bumper pull 14 foot dump trailer? Or, does anyone know if it will fit and balance?

How about a 16 foot dump trailer?

My biggest concern would be, Will it stop? That's close to 8,000 lbs.

I use a 16' dump trailer, 14,000lb and it's a little tight. FEL and BH hang out. Only load on a flat surface or heading up hill or you will go for a unfun ride, don't ask me how I know.

Dump trailer is no different than a flatbed trailer as far stopping and controlling, just make sure it has good brakes on 4 wheels and the load is spread out properly between the trailer wheels and the tongue so that there is enough tongue weight for control.
