Ever – other models: the collective page of trailers outside the named ranges, EKB, EVB and VE types in one- to three-axle versions, unladen weights from 1,000 to 10,200 kg and gross weights up to 46,000 kg

This page gathers the Ever trailers the register could not assign to a named range. The type designations EKB, EVB and above all VE, followed by a number and an axle-count code such as 1A, 2A or 3A plus a multi-digit serial number, cover a wide range from the small VH trailer to the multi-axle VE type. Unladen weights over 10 tonnes and gross weights up to 46 tonnes show that the collective page bundles both light and heavy versions.

The register lists here 27 versions with unladen weights from 1,000 to 10,200 kg, gross weights from 1,500 to 46,000 kg and widths from 2,050 to 2,600 mm.

Trailers of this span serve both farm and commercial haulage in the mid weight range and heavy-duty transport, for instance of construction machinery or bulk goods; the axle-count code in the type designation allows a quick read of load capacity. The different axle-count variants let operators use the same basic design for both lighter and heavier loads without having to switch to a different vehicle concept. For repair shops this means parts such as axles or couplings have to be matched to the specific model number rather than just the series name.

On a used purchase, the condition and load capacity of the axles, the operation of the braking system, the condition of the frame and body, rust on load-bearing parts, and on multi-axle versions the forced steering and the condition of the tyres all count.

What to check before buying

  • Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.
  • Check the brakes and the last inspection in the papers.
  • Work the gross weight against the towing vehicle before buying.
  • Compare the chassis number with the papers.
  • Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
