Width of an H?

Thank you very much, gentlemen. Seems the minimum is 75".

Trying to decide whether I can take the livestock trailer (sitting in the yard) to the auction, or need to borrow a buddy's equipment trailer from too many miles in the wrong direction.

The livestock trailer I can screw blocking to the floor, and if the tractor brakes work, lock them down, with a slow, short, safe trip home on back roads. Otherwise, I'd have to find the chain binders I haven't used in half an age.

Now that I'm thinking about it, they may have been 'lifted' a couple years ago with a bunch of other tools in a shed.
 
That sounds about right to me. When I hauled my two H's home, one was on 13.6, and one was on 12.4's. I had the wheels slid in on both of them ALL the way. The 12.4 had about 3 inches of clearance on an 81" car trailer. and the tractor running 13.6 "squeaked" against the fenders going on! OH MAN! JUST barely!!!
 
An H in the yard is square: 76" axles, 76" to the top of the steering wheel with 12.4-38. Of course you can let some air out, but it your trailer open top, or how high is it?
 
Andy, I realized they're tall, but hadn't considered the height could be an issue, and after putting a tape measure to work, the height isn't.

Even though the one I'm looking at tomorrow looks to be on 12.4's, it's the width that's short by more than what a shoehorn and a layer of grease can handle. I'm going to need the equipment trailer.

Even if you dish the wheels in, turn them around?

Yup. Somehow I don't think taking a torch and cutting slots in the sides of the trailer for the axles is a 'good idea'. It's not even fully paid for yet.
