AAA Trailers 45’ Quad-Axle Drop Deck Widener With Front Lift Up & Rear Steer Axle in Melbourne

Overview: 45’ Quad-Axle Drop Deck Widener With Front Lift Up & Rear Steer Axle

For operators hauling wide, heavy, and awkward freight, this 45’ Quad-Axle Drop Deck Widener brings the muscle, reach, and stability to handle the toughest loads. With a 60-tonne ATM, 36-tonne GTM, and an approximate tare weight of 14 tonnes, it’s engineered to move serious payloads with confidence. The deck widens from 2.5m to 3.5m, giving you the clearance for machinery, construction plant, and other oversized freight that demands extra space.


The high-tensile steel mainframe and forklift-rated 5mm chequer plate floor give it the backbone for heavy-duty work, while the dual-position kingpin adds flexibility for different coupling setups. On the road, SAF quad-axle airbag suspension, 17.5” drum brake axles, and a multi-volt EBS braking system combine to deliver smooth handling and controlled braking, even when running at full capacity.


Loading and unloading are made easy with 60-tonne rated bi-fold ramps powered by a diesel pack. The rear steer axle and front lift-up axle boost manoeuvrability through tight job sites and help cut down tyre wear over long freight routes.


Standard gear includes 3-way container pins, stainless steel toolboxes, LED lighting, a stainless water tank, and quarter guards with AAA mud flaps. If your operation demands more, upgrades like road train kits, ring feeders, custom paintwork, and oversize signage give you the versatility to run confidently across freight corridors in Melbourne, throughout Victoria, and anywhere in Australia.
