Originally designed for Canada’s harsh off-road winters, the Collins G7X Super Dolly is built for extreme conditions and extended use. While the Collins G7 is the ultimate in professional, light-duty dolly towing, the G7X goes further with heavy-duty framework, tackling tough harsh road conditions, long-distance hauls and overall demanding wrecker jobs. See how it stacks up below.

Q: What is the maximum weight capacity of the Collins G7X Dollies?
A: The Collins G7X features an industry-leading load capacity of up to 5,000 lbs. per pair, supported by aggressive, high-traction Load Range E (5.00 x 8) tires.
Q: What is the safe speed rating for towing with the Collins G7X Super Dolly?
A: The 5.00 x 8 tires on the G7X carry a speed marking of "M", which represents a safe towing speed rating of up to 75 MPH on expressways and highways.
Q: What is the recommended tire pressure (PSI) for the G7X Dolly?

A: Zip’s carries a full inventory of official Collins Manufacturing replacement components, including right/left spindle assemblies, replacement rail ends, tie-down straps, and hardware specifically engineered to fit the HSD-G7X model.
Q: How do I know if the heavy-duty Collins G7X is the right model for my fleet?
A: Choosing the right dolly depends heavily on the average curb weight of the vehicles you tow, the terrain you operate in, and how often the equipment is deployed. While standard, lighter-weight dollies are great for quick, short-distance highway runs with light passenger cars, the heavier-duty build of the G7X is designed specifically for extreme weather, high-mileage expressway trips and rugged off-road recoveries.
