What makes Futura Lowering Trailers the right choice?
There seems to be one universal complaint and age-old issue of car haulers; how to load and haul a vehicle with low ground clearance and an overall, easy-to-use trailer to maneuver alone. Trailers that require ramps are difficult to use and cause damage to the vehicle or load. We had this issue when we visited tracks and attended events and is the inspiration behind the design of our Sport Range of remote-controlled lowering trailers.
Futura Trailers are lightweight and easy to use. They are uniquely designed to lower to the ground with the touch of a button. They completely eliminate the need for ramps or tilting decks. With the use of the remote control, pressing either the UP or DOWN button, a synthetic rope and pulley system lower the trailer to the ground with ease. This cuts down the loading angle to a mere three degrees and makes bumping and scraping a thing of the past.
Drive or winch your vehicle on to the lowered deck and raise the trailer while you're still sitting in the drivers seat. You're then able to open the car door and get out. If your vehicle sits low and getting out of the car could potentially come in contact with the trailer fenders, remove the fenders with the quick-release fasteners to allow for even more clearance to eliminate any risk of damage.
We understand that moving your pride and joy from one location to another is important and we want to remove the risk of damage completely with our Sport Range of lowering trailers. Whether it’s your business to transport cars, you're visiting events or track days, or you're an enthusiast, the value of a Futura lowering trailer can’t be understated. It’s simply the obvious choice for long-term reliability and convenience.
Thinking about size
When you’re looking at your options, the only thing you’ll want to consider is the size of the trailer deck you’ll need. Our models range from 16' 5" (5000 mm) to 19' 8" (6000 mm) with some other options depending on availability in our distributing locations. Contact us for more information and details on the models that are available in your location.
You’ll want to consider the length of your current vehicle and ensure sufficient space and load capacity for hauling your vehicle. You can also look for other premium accessories to better accommodate your needs.
