ABSTRACT:
A truck trailer with a removable rack adapted for loading and unloading livestock without a loading chute. The trailer and rack have pivotable rear sections to define a loading ramp when pivoted to the ground. A pair of slide rails on the upper surface of the trailer and a pair of slide channels on the lower surface of the rack cooperate to guide the rack onto and from the trailer. A number of lock bars are pivotally mounted to the inner side walls of the rack to secure the rack on the trailer. Using a winch and truck hydraulics, one person is able to pull the rack onto the trailer. The task of removing the rack from the trailer can also be performed by one person.
