I guess in keeping this thread going hehehehe I'll ad another post. I just realized that is a 5000 series tractor. Mine is a 5400 but that 5100 is probably similar in weight. I believe they are 5500lbs empty. So adding the hog that dude is really pushing his luck with that trailer. My old 7K was built well and I OL'd it several times to about 10K but that trailer looks like 7K would be too much. Granted I have a loader and loaded tires but my 14K doesn't want much more than the 5400 that weighs 9500lbs on it.
