Just brought this home today. Bought it from 730Virgil. It's a 2000 18' 12,000 pounder w/electric brakes. So far it's only hauled some new kitchen cabinets for my folks, but I hope I can get some iron on there soon. I think I'm going to build a thrid ramp for the middle to load a narrow front tractor. Now, I either need to buy a bigger truck or get my '68 IH up and going. I might do both : ) I brought it home with my 2000 S-10 4x4, and it's all that truck wanted I think. I'm real happy with the trailer and I sold Virgil a two-section drag in the same trip. Thanks Virgil!

Hey nice trailer! After seeing your picture I had to go out and check if mine was still in my yard as my trailer looks identical to yours right down to the ramps and white spoke wheels. Very handy rigs as I haul a 750 gal. water tank occasionally and have hauled 5 round bales at a time with it as well. Mine has hydraulic surge brakes that Im thinking about changing over to electric though. Good luck and good hauling with your trailer!

You can load a tricycle tractir eaisly on a 2 ramp trailer. Drive your tractor parallel to the ramps. Put one rear tire close to one ramp. Use the brakes and run the front wheels up the other ramp. Easy.

Not to answer for in-to-deep (but I will), most of the fender type trailers are at most 82" between fenders, so probably no. I have hauled wider tractors on mine, by driving them on from the front. Take off the trailer jack, block up the front corners of the trailer so the tongue just clears the ground when you lower the trailer, then put up ramps on the front and drive the tractor on so its facing rearward. If you run the rear tires of the tractor right up to the front of the trailer fenders, it will be balanced pretty well. Hauled an IH 674 and an AC D17 that way, without incident.

Nice looking trailer! I like the heavy frame members. Yeah, I think the S-10 is too light for that rig, even with brakes on the trailer.
