Yours is smaller...

This was parked at the coop in Orienta, OK. No one was around to explain what it was built to haul.



BTW, I'm very happy with the short trailer I have. It fits in the garage and my EGT is high enough with just one implement on the FEL. I'd have had to purchase a new more capable truck to haul any more.

Wow....that's impressive!

I have seen those a few times, but have yet to see one actually hauling anything. I too am curious what kinds of things are that heavy that would fit on such a small deck.

The frame slides under the belly pans of a dozer then the trailer raises up and lifts the machine off of the ground. I think there called Jo dog trailers?

This one was huge; used to remove and ship generator from the closed Rancho Seco nuclear power plant

Move of huge generator draws attention - Lodinews.com: Home

At the time, there were some great pictures of the trailer and generator, but a web search doesn't find them any more

A guy on another Forum I used to go to has one and would post pic's from time to time. Power plant parts like transformers, turbines, generators, mining equipment, train parts etc. I saw one up close that had hauled a wind turbine power cell to a site.

If you search google images for heavy haul transformers, or mining, train etc. You can find lots of images of this type of trailer.

For me though, the cooler machinery is the stuff used to pick and place the items moved on this type of trailer.

it's called a double goose neck. Used to haul very heavy loads.

That would be handy for moving the RTV ! Sure would hate to buy a set of tires for it though
