Don't Know Nottin'

Posted by Allan in NE on September 14, 2005 at 04:23:13 from (148.78.243.24):

Mornin" Guys,

I need to find a couple of trailers; the stock trailer I can handle, but I don"t know squat "bout flatbeds. Can you guys give me some advice so that my idiocy doesn’t show thru quite so bad?

I need a gooseneck deck-over and would presume that the dovetail is the way to go nowadays? How long of a rig do I need for just bangin" round the farm hauling machinery and big round hay bales? Is there any special preference in the wheels/bearings/brakes?

Also, local dealer is installing the hitch and says that 1" to 9" ahead of the rear axle is "neutral". What the heck does he mean by that?

Pickup is a 3/4-ton with the optional tow package suspension (overloads).

Thanks,

Allan
