DESCRIPTION
The HORST WAGONS Model 325 is a rugged, high‑capacity 18‑ton tandem wagon gear built for agricultural transport efficiency and durability. Featuring an automotive‑style steering system and adjustable wheelbase (8′ 8″ – 11′ 2″), this gear is engineered to handle a wide range of forage boxes, grain boxes, and other high‑volume agricultural bodies. A quick‑hitch tongue with retractable automatic relock speeds hookup, while 3″ diameter C1045 cold‑rolled spindles and heavy‑wall axles deliver superior load‑bearing strength. The standard 11′ reach length can be tailored with optional reach poles from 9′ to 22′, and the frame can be configured for narrow or wide track widths to suit field or road requirements. The Model 325 also offers multiple tire and rim packages, disc brake readiness with hydraulic brake options, and practical features like a 1/2″ Grade 70 safety chain, 42.5″ fixed bolster stakes, and a compact 33″ load height (with 11 × 22.5 tires). Backed by Horst’s reputation for quality, it’s a proven choice for farms needing a tough, adaptable running gear.
