In Reply to: Brain Trust Help - Cargo Trailers posted by Larry EC-OH on August 17, 2017 at 06:30:37:

2 years ago I bought one from that company but is a 16" deck between the wheels to replace a trailer that a car did not stop at stop sign and wrecked. Both were 16' of same design with 2 3,500 axles. The one that got wrecked weighed 1,750#, the Cargo weighs only 1,500# and you can easily see the difference in weight. And that translates to you can just see the trailer flex while pulling it The one that got wrecked I could haul my Ford 2N tractor with no problems, I had that tractor on the new one once and never will again. And the old one had an efective load carrying rate of 5,250#, the Cargo has a rate of 5,500# but I will not load 3,000# on it as I can see in the mirror when pulling it how much it flexes with half the load it is rated to carry. And that is the weight of that tractor. For my heavier hauling I got out an older homemade trailer and rebuilt the floor and that is what I use and it hauls that tractor easier than the one that got wrecked and way better than the Cargo that I will no longer put the tractor on. The one I bought is a 2015 model that was one year old when I bought it new from dealer and last fall loading a small grain drill (narrow enough to just push on by hand) and wheels 4' diameter and way less than a thousand pounds and one went through the floor, only to be cought by the cross pieces that are spaced twice as far apart as they should be. So with my experiance I say stay away from that brand. Wish I had never bought it. Loading ramp was week on one that got wrecked but this is way weeker. And I could drive a riding garden tractor on to that trailer, cannot due that with the new one as ramp is weeker but also shorter and trailer sets higher so has a lot more loading angle.

Today's Featured Article - The Day Mom Drove the 8N - by Brian Browning. My Dad was wanting to put in a garden but couldn't operate the 8N and handle the old horse drawn plow he had found and rigged up to use with the tractor. Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o ... [Read Article]
