The boxes are 5" from the ground. No go.

I specced out a 53 foot step with 17.5's, three load bunks, dunnage rack, tire carrier, front and rear lift axle, 20 sliders, and it came to $49,865 USD and 11,600 lbs. Unfortunately discs currently aren't available for 17.5's. I'll probably drop one leveler, add two pairs of oversize lights, lower the ride height from 6.5 to 4", and add more marker lights (9 or so from 5). Maybe add an auto inflation system as well.

I think so, eventually. I'll talk to the boss again see what he says.

How much are they charging for this option? We have them on 3 of our trailers and I don't think I'd get them again. I find the magnetic flashing strobes and or red lights that plug into the back of the trailer easier to mount on the widest part of the load or the corners of the load.
