The KN14K trailer features an innovative kneeling axle system that eliminates the need for long ramps or complex loading procedures. It is also built with Eby’s signature aluminum construction, ensuring lasting durability, enhanced safety, and lightweight performance where it matters most.

“The KN14K was designed with real-world challenges in mind,” said Erin Varley, vice president of dealer sales and development at Eby. “It gives operators a simple, efficient way to load and transport heavy, low-clearance equipment directly to the job site. It’s a versatile and user-friendly trailer built to make loading and unloading quick, easy, and safe.”
