Extra Length Where Two Horses Feel It Most
A standard two-horse gives animals just enough room to stand. This new 2023 Shadow 2HSSR gives them 16 ft 6 in of box, and horses use every inch of it, shifting and rebalancing naturally through corners and braking instead of bracing rigidly for the whole trip. Over a long drive that difference shows in how they come off the trailer.
It suits competitive riders, breeders and anyone regularly covering highway miles rather than running five minutes to the arena. What makes the length unusual is that it comes without a matching increase in width: at 6 ft 4 in outside, this trailer still fits down a barn lane and into a show parking row that a wider rig would struggle with.
Aluminum Build, Treated Floor
Shadow builds the 2HSSR entirely from aluminum, which means less corrosion to chase, a lighter tow and better long-term resale than a comparable steel trailer. Underfoot, the pressure-treated wood floor gives firm, non-slip footing with a little more give than bare metal, which many owners prefer for long hauls. The manual jack and matching spare tire come as standard, so the trailer is genuinely road-ready on the day it arrives rather than after a shopping list. The 3,500 lb axles on 15 in tires sit under the whole length, spreading the load evenly across the long box.
Specifications
- New 2023 Shadow 2HSSR, two-horse configuration
- All-aluminum construction
- Pressure-treated wood floor
- 3,500 lb axles with 15 in tires
- Manual jack and spare tire included
- Outside width 6 ft 4 in
- Inside height 7 ft 6 in, about 22.5 hands
- Box length 16 ft 6 in
- Empty weight 2,960 lbs
- GVWR 5,960 lbs
Watch the GVWR rather than the length on this one. At 5,960 lbs it is lower than the 7,000 lb figure common on two-horse trailers, and with a 2,960 lb empty weight that leaves about 3,000 lbs for horses and gear, which is fine for two average animals but tight if yours are large and you travel with full water and feed. The 7 ft 6 in interior height is generous, so measure your tallest horse at the withers and you will almost certainly clear it with room in hand. Being new, it arrives with fresh tires and a sound floor, though a lighting, brake and tire pressure check before the first haul is still worth the five minutes it takes.
