Just a thought BuickandDeere. How about if you were to buy an old flatbed tractor trailer and take the wheels off. I heard about this from an old farmer in Illinois and he uses these things extensively. SInce talking to him, I have found more than one available in the Convenient Store magazines in the $175 to $250 price range. I am thinking seriously about putting this across my water crossing this summer. I can use the full 50 foot, but you could get a shorter trailer bed by buying a wrecked pup trailer and taking the sides and roof off. I think this is a neat idea. I can put this thing right on the ground without building peers and I should still have 6' to 7' of clearance between the bridge and the bottom of the creek. It will be a long time before the old steel in these trailers begins to deteriorated. Just a thought.
