You don't really need an equalizer hitch on a 3/4 ton if you load the trailer properly. I would second getting a trailer with 6 or 7000 lbs. axles over 3500 lb. axles. I have 7000 lb. rubber torsion axles on my Bobcat trailer and love them. Like independent suspension and no maintenance for the suspension unlike with springs. One thing that hasn't been mentioned is trailer construction. I welded my trailer myself but it came out of a jig at a trailer shop. It is built out of rectangular tubing and not channel iron. It is a little heavier but does not flex like channel does. I carried a 12,000 lb. JD 355D crawler on it no problem. I was probably a little overloaded but only moved the crawler a couple times. I put a seperate (square)drop leg jack on it and a pintle hitch. I like it better than the original ball hitch and the jacks that bolt onto the ball type couplers are total junk. I doubt you'd find even a good new 7000 lb. trailer for $2500 though. Maybe though. Dave
