Thinking of a way to haul a tractor on my 7x14 tandem axle dump trailer, it?s actually 6?-8? (inside measurements) don?t have ramps for this trailer so was trying to think of a solution to get a non running tractor in the bed of it, once loaded it would be easy to dump/tilt to unload without ramps. Any suggestions?

Yes, backing up to an embankment or even into a ditch can put the deck at the level of the tractor you want to load. I helped do this once loading a DC4 Case into the back of a one ton Ford wooden grain box. It loaded ok but after looking the whole thing over we decided it was too risky to try and haul it anywhere that way.

I agree with the suggestion to back up to a ditch or bank.
I used to have a 16' car hauler and did it that way many times.

Will see if neighbor has a bank near by, my bumper pull is only 6? wide and too narrow since his tractor is widened out, and my 28? gooseneck too big to get in to where tractor is, going to put a frame hitch on it one day so I can swap my 8000 lb winch back and forth from it to the bumper pull. Just toying around with the idea of using the dump trailer

The chain hoist will probably work, but be ready for a workout!
I winched an S10 Blazer out of the weeds, up onto a trailer once with a cable come along. Thought I was going to have a heart attack! Never again!
If you can, procure some type of electric winch, or even a drill powered winch.
Might look into the cost of hiring a tilt bed wrecker if it's a local move.

I loaded a Case VAC parts tractor with a stuck engine by blocking the clutch pedal, putting the PTO in gear and the transmission in first and then turning the PTO stub with a 24" crescent wrench. It was surprisingly easy to move this way, onto a low trailer. One wheel had just the rim with no rubber, but it still rolled.
