Abstract: A trailer for use with off-road vehicles such as all-terrain vehicles and snowmobiles. The disclosed off-road trailer can be adjusted to accommodate different trailer beds and attachments that can be readily off loaded and can be compactly packaged for shipping and storage. Modules for different conditions (e.g., ground or snow surface) can be implemented for multi-season usage. The disclosed suspension assembly enhances performance and robustness while maintaining cost effectiveness. The utility of the disclosed off-road trailer may be enhanced by grab handles for manual maneuvering, a rear bumper, and an active tail light. The overall design of the off-road trailer enables towing cargo behind a snowmobile or off-road vehicle over rough terrain at higher rates of speed than conventional off-road towable trailers.

Abstract: Swivel plow feet for a plow have a shaft rotatably connected to a foot portion at a joint; the foot portion with a convex shaped surface for engaging the plowed surface. In embodiments, the shaft is received in a bushing fixed to the plow frame, with the vertical height adjustment of the plow feet with respect to the plow provided by a series of selectable holes in the shaft that cooperate with a pair of aligned holes in the bushing on the plow frame with a pin extendable through the aligned holes. The dome shape portion having a skid surface on a lower end and a unitary central hub with a recess for receiving the lower end of the shaft on an opposite upper end. The lower end of the shaft rotatably retained in the recess of the central hub. The flange end of the shaft may engage one or more bearings in the hub and the hub may have a grease fitting providing a grease pathway to the recess with the bearings and lower end of the shaft.
