Trailer KMZ 8119 shock absorbers analogs

How the KMZ 8119 trailer works

The towing device of Kurganmashzavod OJSC, like any other technical device of this category, consists of a body, a running mechanism, a device for connecting to the vehicle and lighting equipment.

Body

The body structure of the KMZ 8119 passenger trailer is a rectangular steel frame covered with profiled metal sheets. The wheel arches are located inside the body and do not protrude beyond the overall dimensions. On the opposite side of the drawbar, the body has a folding tailgate, secured to the base with the help of canopies. It is fixed in the closed position with special latches.

Chassis KMZ 8119

The chassis consists of wheels and suspension taken from the ZAZ 968m model. Having an independent suspension, the trailer is able to provide high stability when moving the trailer, and is also less susceptible to swaying.

Connection mechanism with the car

Structurally, this drawbar has a folding design. It has a fastener for the ball end of the tow bar, plus a chain link with carabiners. The drawbar when folded allows you to store the trailer by placing it vertically upward.

Light signaling equipment

The working light is represented by side lights with built-in brake lights on the rear side, side lights in the front of the trailer. There is also wiring, a standard connector for connecting the KMZ 8119 to the electrical part of the car in the relay line for turning on its turns. Passive reflective devices are rear red side reflectors and orange warning lights on the sides.

KMZ trailers: model range and prices

Hi all! I’ve been reading this blog for a long time, but I haven’t had enough time to write about my trailer. Meet KMZ 8119!

A very long and funny life story of this trailer, especially in my possession)) About how I bought it: I worked with a guy who lives not far from my house. While we were working together, we covered a lot of different topics, about cars, and about houses... And then one day he says: “Listen, don’t you know, no one needs a trailer?”, I say, “What kind of trailer?” - “Yes, it’s worth it,” he says, “I’ve had it in my garden for five years now, I don’t need it.” I ask “how much?”, and he “would at least give it for a mower” - and then it dawned on me: THAT’S WHAT I NEED, AND I FORGOT))))). Let's go see it immediately! Picture: the trailer is standing on its side, one side is frozen into a snowdrift so that the arch is not visible, there are no wheels, but there are numbers. I say, “What, do you have any documents?” - “Of course, it’s registered, everything is in order,” my immediate answer: “I TAKE IT, HOLD THE MOWER!” We dug around for two hours until we used a crowbar to break up the snow and ice in order to pull it out. As it turned out, there was a wheel on a trailer under the snow, all that was left was to find one more - no problem, the tire service was 50 meters away, we got the right one for free. We turned it over onto its wheels and off we went! They attached it to my “five” (oh, that was a long time ago...) and I went home.

At that time, my car did not have a trailer socket, but at least it had a towbar. In accelerated mode, I install a socket, safety chains, and change light bulbs. The next day we are already rushing to the traffic police, where I am going to register him.

We arrive, at the inspection site the cop walks around for a long time, trying to find the body number. I tell him, “Yes, there’s a sign on the drawbar,” and he, “There should be somewhere else on the body itself, but I don’t remember where exactly... I “no, well, I have nothing to do with it, there’s a number over there.” , although it’s on a nameplate, it’s still readable, so everything is GOOD!” - “Well, to hell with you, go get a number.” Whether there really is a number on it, I still don’t know. I recently found out that it should be under the left lamp. We should try to look for it, but it’s a shame to rip off the paint, I painted it diligently...

Review: Car trailer Kurganmashzavod KMZ 8136 – An indispensable assistant for a summer residence

Optimal dimensions, the ability to transport cargo up to 5.5 meters long, high-speed suspension

Expensive suspension parts, no “quick” lock on the additional sides.

In my life there have often been situations when I needed to transport a lot of cargo from point A to point B: renovations in a new apartment, harvest from the dacha and building materials for it, firewood for a bathhouse in the village and much, much more of the same. For oversized cargo such as interior doors, the top trunk or folding rear seats in my favorite Chevrolet Lanos car usually helped me. But my car obviously didn’t like it very much, especially when I put something heavy on the top trunk and made a dent on the roof or scratched the plastic in the cabin while transporting long plastic panels. And so, when I bought a new version of Lanos with it, in addition, I had a towbar, having saved up a little money, I started driving around the showrooms selling trailers, the price range turned out to be between about 35 thousand rubles for a small trailer with galvanized sides and about 55 thousand for a stronger one Kurgan trailer with high sides, awning and other bells and whistles. And then I was lucky once again, I came across an excellent KMZ 8136 trailer on the secondary market. I immediately liked it because it was already sold with additional sides and an awning, and the previous owner also made modifications in the form of mounting a spare wheel and legs for convenient parking. I have been actively using this wonderful trailer for three summer seasons now, and here are the advantages I can note about it. 1. Almost ideal dimensions, its internal length is slightly less than 2 meters, which allows you to transport most long items such as doors, corrugated sheets or fence posts. If this is not enough for you, then you can lower the front or rear side, and if this is not enough, then lengthen the drawbar with a standard spacer, which will allow you to transport cargo up to five and a half meters long. It is very convenient that the wheels are located outside the trailer and we have a flat floor. 2. Additional sides increase the internal height of the body to half a meter, which allowed me to carry refrigerators tall (of course, securing them with additional ropes. 3. The painted body, unlike galvanized, is quite resistant to corrosion. My trailer is already 24 years old, but there are a lot of rusts ( this is taking into account that it was almost always stored outside), but in general the body is still very strong and requires only periodic cosmetic touch-ups. 4. The arches for the awning are conveniently removable, with the awning closed, the cargo remains dry even in very rainy weather. 5. The towbar of the old one like it takes some time to remove it and put it in the car, but it is very reliable. 6. The lever suspension allows you to comfortably drive with it at speeds of up to 120 kilometers per hour. 7. There is a dump truck function, but I have never used it, it’s easier to unhook the trailer from the car. 8. My electrics are all original, I haven’t had any problems with them for 3 years. 9. The previous owner installed small additional springs inside the standard ones, which allowed me to transport up to 700-800 kilograms on a trailer, without such modifications I can safely load half a ton into a trailer. 10. The trailer fits standard VAZ wheels with a 4*98 bolt pattern; I installed 13-radius wheels by removing the 14-radius casting, which was too steep for the trailer. If you wish, you can install a 15 radius without additional modifications, the only question is the price you are willing to pay for the wheels for the trailer. Even with 13-radius wheels, the trailer stands quite high above the road, so I think that they are enough.

Trailer KMZ 8284: price, where to buy, reviews, technical specifications

Hello, dear readers of our site! Today we have in line a rather interesting trailer called KMZ 8284.

To be more precise, this is a small series of trailers with the same index from the same manufacturer, but in different modifications. There are 5 versions in total. I want to talk a little about them.

As you remember, we have already talked about the trailers of this company. Then KMZ 8136 was discussed, a link to which I will leave here. You can read at your leisure and compare.

And now I propose to understand what KMZ 8284 is, what modifications it has and how they differ from each other. Plus, I’ll supplement the conversation with a pressing question about the frame number.

A little about labeling

Before talking about a specific trailer and its technical characteristics, I want to supplement the material with an explanation regarding the markings.

Otherwise I read various reviews and questions on forums, realizing that the guys need to give an answer.

In 2000, GOST introduced a new requirement regarding the mandatory duplication of the trailer ID number on non-removable parts of the frame near the nameplate. KMZ 8284 trailers began to fully meet these requirements starting in 2000. By the way, the 8284 series itself began production back in 1997. Therefore, remember that on models before 2000 there were no duplicate plates and there were never any.

After the innovations, the 8284 trailer was manufactured according to different requirements. GOST has tightened the standards for the production of plates and their labeling. If previously the photochemical printing method was used, now this is done using photochemical etching. Because of this, the service life of the element has significantly increased.

The marking includes information about:

manufacturer;
manufacturer's trademark;
trailer models;
sign of conformity with the code of the certification body;
vehicle type approval number;
VIN code or identification number.

Therefore, if you decide to buy yourself a used trailer from KMZ somewhere on auto ru or through other sites, look at this sign. It contains all the necessary information.

Also, do not confuse KMZ with Kurgan trailers. The Kurgan version is also produced in the same city as KMZ.

I published interesting material regarding Krepysh and KMZ car trailers, where I described in detail all the nuances of these similar models, which unscrupulous sellers take advantage of. Read it. Here is a link to this article. It will be useful and interesting.

Modifications

I will not go into details regarding the manufacturer KMZ, since I wrote about this earlier. It’s better to talk about model 8284 and those modifications that are available to customers.

This is a category of vehicle that is perfect for regular use when performing a wide variety of tasks.

Here it will not be difficult to change the wheel bearing with your own hands, or replace the springs. Yes, I went a little ahead. The suspension of the KMZ 8284 is really leaf spring, regardless of the modification. An excellent reason to look into the material about springs on a trailer. As usual, here's the link.

Now about the modifications. They received the following designations in addition to KMZ 8284:

Now you will find out what each of them is.

8284 20

A medium-sized flatbed trailer designed for various types of cargo. Due to the presence of a tipper function, bulk cargo can be easily transported.

The frame is painted with zinc-rich, durable paint. All sides are galvanized, and paint is applied on top of them. The front and rear trailer doors are quick-release. Tail lights are included.

If you are willing to pay extra, then the list of additional options includes:

awning and arches;
idler wheel;
bracket for spare tire;
drawbar extension;
spare wheel;
locks, fasteners;
additional extension sides, etc.

I will say right away that all versions have approximately the same list of additional components. Therefore, I will not repeat myself in the future. If you are interested in any spare parts, it is better to find out about this from your supplier. The price and list also differ depending on the seller.

Now let's go through the technical specifications. The instructions and operating manual tell us about the following figures in model 8284 20:

total weight is 750 kg;
load capacity at 570 kg;
dimensions (length and width) 3085 by 1760 mm;
internal declared dimensions of the structure are 1850 by 1204 by 250 mm;
spring-shock absorber type suspension.

Go ahead.

8284 21

This trailer has enlarged sides compared to the previous version. But it also allows you to transport different types of cargo, including bulk materials.

The installation of imported locks as standard is provided on the quick-release trailer sides. Also has foreign lighting equipment. The sides here are corrugated and made of galvanized steel.

According to technical characteristics, it has the following:

total rated weight 750 kg;
the load capacity parameter corresponds to the value of 570 kg;
The internal specified dimensions of this caravan are 1850x1204x335 mm;
a combination of springs and shock absorbers is used in the suspension design;
The basic equipment includes R13 tires;
The wheels are from VAZ.

A good trailer with a slightly larger loading area.

8284 31

This trailer clearly stands out from the entire series, since it is used for transporting watercraft. This is a good alternative to the Vodnik trailer, which I talked about just recently.

The characteristics of the model limit the trailer to transport water equipment up to 4 meters in length.

The main ones worth highlighting here are the following:

the supports are adjusted to suit the watercraft's outlet;
The vehicle is equipped with a winch and a 6 m long halyard;
the frame is processed by hot-dip galvanizing;
the hitch can be adjusted in height;
the total weight here is 750 kg;
carrying capacity according to the passport is 560 kg;
dimensions are 4420×1688 mm;
the suspension also consists of springs with shock absorbers;
standard wheels from VAZ have size R13.

An excellent choice for those who like to fish from a boat or have a jet ski at their disposal. With such a trailer from KMZ, there will be no problems with their transportation, loading and unloading.

8284 41

Again, a flatbed trailer that does not include a high awning. Therefore, it is positioned as a model for motorcycles, ATVs and other cargo.

The body has a tipper function, and the vehicle has a reinforced tailgate. The hitch can also be adjusted to the desired height as needed. The additional list of equipment includes awnings and arches of various required sizes, including structures with a height of 1500 mm.

The main parameters are:

total rated weight of the model is 750 kg;
load capacity is limited to 520 kg;
declared loading height of the trailer is 560 mm;
inside dimensions are 2400 by 1400 by 290 mm.

Excellent device with good workmanship. I don't see any point in abandoning such a trailer. Especially if you need to transport motorcycles or ATVs, for example.
