Abstract
A tractor drawn lift bed highway trailer for transporting high tonnage loads over the highway, utilizing pallet frame units adapted to be picked up or dropped off quickly without the need for additional equipment or personnel. The trailer has a relatively light, strong main frame; a lift bed adapted to be elevated from lowered loading position forwardly and upwardly into engagement with the gooseneck for additional rigidity during transport; improved protection for the load and the tractor in event of an emergency stop; and improved cornering characteristics.
