Dexter Gravity Tilt Deck Trailer Kit
The Dexter Gravity Tilt Deck Trailer Kit, formerly Premium Supply, makes loading and unloading vehicles, tractors, skid steers, UTVs, and equipment faster, safer, and easier without the need for loading ramps. Using the trailer’s center of gravity and a hydraulic dampening cylinder, the deck tilts smoothly for controlled loading and automatically returns to the locked position as the load moves forward.
Unlike fully hydraulic tilt systems, gravity tilt kits require no hydraulic power unit, battery, wiring, or electric controls. This simple, low-maintenance design provides dependable operation while reducing installation complexity, making it an excellent choice for car haulers, equipment trailers, utility trailers, and custom trailer builds.

How a Gravity Tilt Deck Works
A gravity tilt trailer uses the trailer’s center of gravity to allow the deck to pivot during loading and unloading. As equipment or a vehicle is driven onto the trailer, the deck gradually returns to the transport position. The included hydraulic dampening cylinder controls the speed of deck movement, preventing sudden drops while providing smooth, controlled operation without the need for hydraulic pumps or electrical components.
