Thanks Bucshott

I managed to get the wrong linear actuator per the company, so it'll probably be another 2 to 2-1/2 weeks till I get it to break down remotely. So I rigged it to work, so I could pull it around. The trailer "sags" in the front for now but won't once it's hooked up properly. I hope to build a flip/tag axle also.

Lou- will your Deere log loader fit on here?

Very nice Rig and lowboy Ben..I tossed a few numbers around and if im correct ..It might...Im guessing that you have about 28 inches from the back of the gooseneck to the rear of the trailer..The counterweight is about 4 inches off the deck so it should just fit over the gooseneck...The Deere is 36 inches from the back of the tracks to the liveheel when its in the upright position ..It may just fit with a Tag axle I would have to check what the length is with the boom and stick folded up to legal height..Thats what they must use to move these machines around..Once again nice work ...Cheers lou
