	I did buy some smaller tires recently from MPE with the thoughts of making a couple of tag trailers for behind the dump trucks. As far as the other stuff goes, I am willing to try to build just about anything as long as I can make a little bit of money doing it. Reg  |

			A Trombone trailer is a heavy, extendable, step deck trailer.  Often used by crane and rigging outfits to haul crane booms and crane components.  The rear section usually look like a lowboy and the rest of it looks like a drop deck trailer.

			I'm sure you could pull something cool off and I could even forfeit the extendable feature.

 Reg, I desperately want a scissor neck tri lo-boy with a live roll on the back and a center roll for oilfield hauling. It would need to have a 3 position folding neck so it would have 2 different coupling heights as well as being able to pin it straight. much like the red one in the first pic, except it doesn't need to trombone  |
