Best trailer for 2019 ZL1-1LE?
Hi...I read a few posts but nothing specific on this topic. Would love a light weight trailer, preferably under 22ft total for garage storage.
Main concern is how low the front is...don't want to damage while loading obviously. Would a tilt bed be necessary or the best option for this? Love the drop down Futura trailers but at $15'ish, way to expensive. Any help would be much appreciated. |

the ZLE isn't "that low"... Race ramps are your friends... Tr7 ramps in addition to most trailer ramps, make it a no scrape affair...
Ive loaded into my enclosed many times... Althought I did have an airbagged trailers trailer that was the bees knees for low cars... A sloans kwik load would also work well. Or an Aluma tilt with some ramp still needed |

As noted, ramps can be used as needed. Need to watch the deck width. I had a Featherlite 3110 that was 79” between the side rails, and it was nearly impossible to load the ZLE on. I ended up getting an Aluma 8218 tilt trailer that was slightly wider and no side rails so you can use the full width.

I just got an Aluma 18 Ft trailer and had them fabricate a tire rack for about 1/2 the Futura's cost. Works great with race ramps.

I'm interested in the tire rack. Did Aluma do that or the dealer?

Thanks for all the feedback and pics. Curious if any one uses a Kwik Load tilt trailer?(someone mentioned above)
I have a local kwik load dealer measuring the ramp to see if the ZLE will clear the front without the need of ramps. Might go with that one unless someone had negative experience. |

Kwikload worked great on my zr1. Didn’t have it when I had the ZLE, but zle has more clearance than the zr1 had. I’d recommend the trailer anytime.

18' steel deck with a homemade rock guard and Etrack, I drive the truck up some homemade ramps and then also have homemade wood trailer ramp extensions just to make sure I don't rip the front bumper off when loading.
