That looks like a very nice trailer. Is that a 7500 lb total weight (including trailer) capacity unit? If so, you'd be pushing the limits with a loader, boxblade and other cargo. You'd be OK, but starting to get close. I'd want at least 18' long, rated at 10,000 lbs. But, what I see will work and probably be legal. But, just barely.
Tractor and loader ~3800 lbs
Boxblade ~500 lbs
chains, binders, fuel ~250 lbs
Loaded tires?? ~350 lbs
brush guard?? ~ 50 lbs
Tools & Misc?? ~50 lbs
rake or scraper blade? ~400 lbs
A longer trailer will also help get a better weight distribution between tongue and axles. Don't buy too small and regret it.
