215/75/17.5 are a bit shorter than dual 16's 235 (& 245) / 17.5 are essentially the same height as 16's --so converting to singles doesn't raise the deckover height.. yes of course--singles will not get you very far before you get stuck in a muddy field, but on the flipside: the (17.5's) get...

I too am already 100% sold on 17.5's and 100% sold on tandem singles over dualls (for this size range, under ~18k and under ~24ft) I mostly will use it for equipment (farm, non cdl), maybe 20% of the time I'll be hauling a full wide/tall load of stacked pallets or bins, onroad not in the...

I'm keeping my eyes out for another ~16k to ~20k trailer, pintle or gn to be pulled by 550/med duty without air brakes, used/budget/older, occasional use/not for commercial hauling. A more commonly seen, up-rated 14k (after considering tongue weight)- wouldn't be enough this case. "dually"/...

I'm looking / hoping for clarification from those with more 8-lug 16in "wheel" experience.... a friend told me he is planning on using 9/16 hole wheels on a (~7k axles) equipment trailer with the smaller 1/2" lug studs. This seems a little crazy to me relying on the nuts to perhaps center...

Thanks for all the input so far! Pluses & minus for every setup. I should specify, I'm looking for a general-purpose trailer, again, spec'd for 15-16,0000loads MAX, not necessarily 20-25,000lbs loads (these not taking into account trailer weight or pin/truck axle weight). I'm actually not doing...

I'm in the market for a used gooseneck "hay hauler"/ deckover 16k/20k trailer, ~20-30ft deck, & a big consideration for me is reasonably low trailer empty/scale weight. The max I'll ever use it for would be a ~15000lb compact load (plus weight of trailer). Going against the trend I want a basic...

Thanks so much for for the input & encouragement, (more troubleshooting steps to do now & likely more pulling apart I suppose.. time to see if I can get a better view/understanding of the block & passageways with more of the covers and parts off)... I agree hard for water to make it into...

Small belt drive tractor with kubota zb400 (zb600 more common, similar) runs surprisingly well but after only 30sec or less of running the oil is way over filled & milky. When not yet running, coolant doesn’t get into oil. The coolant system also had some signs of significant oil residue...
